If your message isn’t landing—and the right clients aren’t showing up—it’s not your fault. Most service business owners are great at what they do. They just struggle to talk about it clearly.
In this video, I’ll walk you through how we fix that using the StoryBrand Framework, plus how to get started with either DIY or done-for-you options.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR MESSAGE ISN’T CLEAR
Can your mom explain what you do?
Can you easily explain what you do?
Can anyone?
If not, that's the problem we fix.
Because when people don’t understand what you do, they move on. You end up working harder just to stay in the game.
You’re always re-explaining yourself
Your website doesn’t convert visitors into clients
Your leads aren’t the right fit
Referrals become scarce
Marketing is frustrating as all hell
But it doesn’t have to be this way. A clear message makes all of that easier. It’s the difference between chasing leads—and attracting the right ones.
You might not believe it yet, but marketing can actually be the opposite of frustrating when you're doing it right.

Whether you want to learn the system or hand it over completely, the goal is the same: clear messaging that brings in better clients with less effort.

FIXING YOUR MARKETING SHOULDN’T FEEL IMPOSSIBLE
Most small business owners aren’t marketers—they just want to explain what they do in a way that makes people care.
But when the message isn’t clear, everything else gets harder: websites don’t convert, leads go cold, and social posts fall flat.
You might worry that getting it right will take too much time, cost too much money, or feel like just another online course you’ll never finish.
That’s why I offer three simple paths: do-it-together support through the StoryBrand Course, 1:1 and team coaching, or done-for-you services where I build your full funnel myself.
You’ll get clear messaging, practical templates, and real support—so your marketing finally works and your business actually grows.
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
We know marketing can feel overwhelming, and you probably have questions. That’s why we’ve put together answers to the things people ask us most.
What makes Strategic Marketing Tribe different from other StoryBrand marketing agencies?
We’re the StoryBrand marketing agency that skips the boring "corporate speak." We blend the power of StoryBrand with strategic marketing solutions to craft content that feels human, genuine, and impossible to ignore.
How can your strategic marketing solutions benefit my business?
Our strategic marketing solutions simplify your message, clarify your brand story, and help you connect with your ideal customers. It’s marketing that makes sense and gets results – no jargon, no gimmicks, just growth.
What is StoryBrand, and why does it matter?
Think of StoryBrand as a cheat sheet for marketing clarity. It helps you explain what you do in a way that makes people stop, listen, and say, “Oh, I get it.” We use it to create marketing that feels human and that your audience will actually enjoy reading.
Do I need to be familiar with StoryBrand to work with you?
Not at all! Whether you’re a StoryBrand superfan (like us!) or have no idea what it is, we’ll walk you through everything. We’re here to make the process simple, clear, and (dare we say) fun.
How do I know if this is right for my business?
If people keep saying “I don’t really get what you do,” or you’re getting the wrong kind of leads, it’s a sign your message needs work. That’s what we fix.
What if I don’t have time to take a course?
The course is built for time-strapped business owners. You get short lessons, plug-and-play templates, and live support so you’re never stuck or overwhelmed.
What’s the difference between the course and the done-for-you service?
The course gives you training, tools, and weekly support so you can do it yourself. The done-for-you option means I build your whole funnel for you.
How long does it take to see results?
Most people see clearer messaging and better engagement within a week of applying the one-liner. Bigger results (like leads and conversions) follow as you apply it across your marketing.
What if I’ve already tried StoryBrand and it didn’t work?
Many people try to apply StoryBrand on their own and miss key parts. This course walks you through it step-by-step, with real examples and live feedback from a Certified Guide.

Meta Launches Vibes AI Video Feed to Rival TikTok
By Vicky Sidler | Published 6 October 2025 at 12:00 GMT+2
A fuzzy bear on a motorcycle might not be your usual Monday inspiration, but Meta thinks it could be. Their new “Vibes” feature is full of AI-generated chaos like that. And it’s officially being positioned as the next frontier of short-form content creation.
According to Meta’s own announcement, Vibes is the centrepiece of its latest Meta AI app update—a new feed of AI-generated videos you can scroll, remix, and share. Think TikTok, but with a lab full of robots and zero need for a ring light.
TL;DR:
Meta just launched Vibes, an AI video feed inside its Meta AI app
You can remix videos, add music, and change styles easily
It connects directly to Instagram and Facebook Stories and Reels
Great for inspiration, but still early days for serious marketing use

What Is Vibes, and Why Should You Care?
Vibes is Meta’s shiny new feed inside the Meta AI app and on meta.ai. It lets anyone scroll through AI-generated short videos from creators, remix them, or make their own. You can also add music, switch styles, and post to your Meta platforms with one tap.
It’s early access only for now, but the direction is clear. Meta wants to hook you on AI content the way TikTok hooked everyone on lip-syncs and filter fails.
If you’re a small business owner, this is a tool worth watching—not because you need more apps to manage, but because your customers may soon be spending more time here.
Remixes, Robots, and Reach:
Let’s say you sell handmade candles. With Vibes, you could start from scratch or take a trending AI video and tweak it. Maybe swap in a glowing forest background, layer in music that sounds like vanilla smells, and pop your product at the end. Done.
Then, share it to Instagram Reels or Facebook Stories. No fancy camera. No editing degree. Just prompt, tweak, and post.
It’s short-form video without the short fuse. The AI does the heavy lifting. You just have to bring the idea.
Here’s the Catch:
This is not plug-and-play marketing. At least, not yet.
Vibes is clearly designed for creators and early adopters. The videos lean surreal. Think animals doing human things and vibes that don’t always match your brand tone. Some of it is funny. Some of it is... weird.
If your business lives on community, authenticity, or personal trust, AI-generated videos can either help or very easily hurt your brand, depending on how you use them. A cutesy robot version of you might go viral. It might also confuse your regulars.
Before You Post That Bear on a Bike:
Try it out. Play with the tools. But keep your brand message front and centre.
When you share a Vibes video, make sure it still answers the questions your customers are asking:
What do you offer?
Why should they care?
What’s the next step?
If it doesn’t do that, it’s entertainment, not marketing. And while entertainment is fine, you probably didn’t start your business just to be funny.
Should You Jump On Vibes Now?
Maybe. If your audience is already on Instagram or Facebook and loves visual content, this could be an easy way to show up more often.
But remember, just because you can make AI videos doesn’t mean you should post them without a plan. Clarity beats clever. Consistency builds trust.

FAQs on Meta’s Vibes AI Video Tool
1. What is Meta’s Vibes and how does it work?
Vibes is a new AI-generated video feed inside the Meta AI app and on meta.ai. It lets you browse short videos created with AI, remix them, or make your own using prompts, music, and visual style tweaks. You can share directly to Instagram, Facebook, or with friends.
2. Can I use Vibes for business marketing?
Yes, but with care. Vibes is great for quick content ideas and brand visibility, especially if your audience enjoys visual or playful content. Just make sure the video still aligns with your message and brand tone.
3. Do I need to be a tech expert to use Vibes?
No. Vibes is designed to be simple. You can create videos by typing prompts or remixing what’s already in the feed. The AI handles most of the editing. No design or editing skills required.
4. Will AI-generated videos confuse my audience?
It depends on your brand. If your audience values authenticity or personal connection, too much AI can feel off. Always keep your message clear, and don’t let the visuals distract from what you actually offer.
5. How does Vibes compare to TikTok?
Vibes works similarly to TikTok in that it’s a short video feed, but the big difference is that content is AI-generated or AI-remixed. That means less filming and more prompting. It’s still new, so the audience and reach are smaller for now.
6. Can I use content from Vibes on Instagram or Facebook?
Yes. You can cross-post videos from Vibes to Instagram and Facebook Stories and Reels. Meta made sure it connects smoothly with its existing platforms.
7. Is this available worldwide or only in some countries?
The rollout is still early, so access may be limited depending on your location. Keep an eye on the Meta AI app and meta.ai for updates.
8. What should I avoid when using Vibes for marketing?
Avoid posting videos that don’t support your message, even if they’re trendy. Don’t lean too hard on AI to be clever. Stick with visuals that match your brand and always check that the content makes sense to your ideal customer.
9. Should I disclose that my videos were made with AI?
It’s a good idea. Even though most people can’t spot AI content, being transparent builds trust. A quick caption or note that the video was made using Meta AI tools keeps your brand honest.
10. How can I get clearer on my message before using Vibes?
Start with your one-liner. If you’re not sure how to explain what you do in a way that sticks, grab my free tool. 👉Download the 5-Minute Marketing Fix
