🌸 Adventures in Marketland [7/13] 🌸


We've got a new episode of the Gorgeous Effect and more in our weekly round-up of content for our Funnel Gorgeous community!

✨The Gorgeous Effect - Behind the Scenes of a Social Media Frenzy ✨

Julie's Instagram blew up last week. Not in a planned way—Jessi Jean gave her a shoutout and suddenly she's drowning in DMs and new followers while trying to keep up with, you know, her actual work. So in this episode, she and Cathy talk through what that's actually like when it happens to you.

Cathy gets into the less glamorous side: the months (or years) of posting into the void before anything clicks. The weird limbo of not knowing if what you're doing is working. Why you need to have your stuff somewhat together before opportunity shows up, because it will show up at the worst possible time.

If you're still grinding away on social media wondering if anyone's even watching, this one might help. Or if you're worried about what happens if people actually start paying attention. Either way, it's a conversation about picking which hard thing you want to deal with and making sure you're ready when your moment comes (because it probably won't announce itself first).

💪FG Funnels Weekly Announcements 💪

Here are your FG Funnels updates through July 9th:

  • Communities - Admins can now create polls directly in community posts. Add a question, set 2–10 answer options, choose Single Select or Multi-Select, and optionally set an expiry date. A Show Results toggle controls whether voters see live percentages or results stay visible only to the admin. Poll creators can add new options after publishing.
  • Communities - Community members can now record and send voice notes directly in chat. Tap and hold the microphone icon to record, release to send. Messages display with a waveform and inline audio player — play, pause, and seek without leaving the chat. Available on web (new UI), GoKollab iOS, and Android.
  • Social Planner - A new Mark All as Read option in Comment Management lets you clear all unread comments for the selected platform and filter in one click. Unread counts reset instantly. Useful for teams managing high comment volumes who want to stay focused on new conversations without manually opening every thread.
  • All of this and more! Check out all the updates here!​
