You know you *should* be posting Instagram Stories for your business... but you keep putting them on the back-burner. And for good reason.
You have some ideas. But if you had to describe your Instagram Story Strategy, it’d be "kinda making it up as I go along."
Because here’s the problem:
You don’t really know what to post.
Let’s just say the idea of recording a video of yourself talking to the camera or posting a selfie makes you cringe.
You’re not *super comfy* on camera.
Most days, finding 30 minutes to post Stories feels like the absolute last priority for your business.
And you’re really freaking BUSY.
And even when you *do* post
Stories, they rarely — if ever — lead to sales.
…But what if posting stories was worth every minute of your time and more?
→ What if every time you posted a story you got a DM from a lead?
→ What if every time you posted a story you could make $100, or $1,000, or $10,000?
→ And what if you didn’t need to post daily Stories or even show your face to do it?
We're Madison & Haley, the copywriters behind Maha Copy Co.
hey there!
We make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year from Instagram Stories, and here's the best part:
We don’t show up every day.
(We show up 2 times a week on average. Often less.)
We rarely talk about our personal lives.
(You'll never find us taking photos on vacation “for the content”.)
And we don’t show our faces 95% of the time.
(In the past 2.5 years, we’ve only posted Stories where we’re talking directly to the camera three times.)
Because we don't NEED to do those things to sell.
And you don't either.
You don't need to be comfortable on camera, have 1k+ followers, or have "influencer energy" to sell on Instagram Stories.
We know this is going to sound WILD — but if you want to sell on Stories, you need to learn how to sell. It's as simple as that.
Because Instagram Stories are a form of MARKETING! And that's not an innate skill you're born with. You don't need to be extroverted or funny or stylish to have success on Stories. You just need to learn the skill!
Think of it like this: You’d never expect to be "a natural" at filing your business taxes. So why do you expect to be a natural at selling on your Instagram Stories?
If you feel uncomfortable, unnatural, or inauthentic selling on Stories, it's a sign you need to up your sales skills.
Skillful selling on IG Stories does NOT look like...
Feeling pressure to post Stories daily, because “consistency is the key to selling” (psst: it’s not!)
Posting Stories from your everyday life — like photos of your lunch, your workout, or your pet — because you want to "connect" with your audience
Buying resources with hundreds of “Story Ideas” — none of which have anything to do with selling (like “post your to-do list for the day”)
Waiting until someone mentions you in a post or Story so you can repost it with a comment like “Love my clients!”
Feeling excited to post Stories because you know when you post you'll make sales
Knowing what your audience wants to see and how to sell authentically, without ever sounding "pushy"
Having ENDLESS ideas for Stories you can post and feeling confident about them, instead of anxious and insecure
Getting replies to your Stories from people saying "I've been thinking about buying for awhile but this story convinced me!", like this:
It looks like...
(We get messages like these ALL THE TIME. )
The truth is Instagram Stories are where your hottest leads are hanging out. If you're not selling to them, you're missing out.
Here's why Instagram Stories are your best opportunity to sell:
1. Your stories are chock-full of people who are already following you, which means they're already interested in what you’re doing and they want to see more. (That's true even if you have less than 500 followers or have never posted a Story before!)
2. People aren't just "hanging out" on Stories. They're SHOPPING.
Just look at the numbers.
of people use Instagram Stories to discover new products
86%
of Instagram users have visited a website to buy a product or sign up for a service after seeing it in Stories
50%
62%
of people are more interested in a brand or product after seeing it on someone’s Stories
Stories are the ideal place to nurture your audience and get people excited to buy your offers. They're where you turn your followers into loyal fans and customers.
"But how do I sell without annoying my followers? I don't want to sound salesy!"
We get it. It can feel intimidating — even EMBARRASSING — to sell your offers. Nobody wants to be the pushy salesperson! But you don't need to convince or push people to want what you're offering in your Stories.
You need to learn how to NURTURE your audience and sell NATURALLY, in a way that's FUN and ENGAGING for your Story viewers and easy and authentic for you.
And that’s what we’re showing you how to do.

Read what sell with stories students are saying
It all adds up to one super high-value course. But don't just take it from us.
The strategy in this course is NOT “take what’s happening in your daily life and tie it to your offers.”
Like…what does that actually look like in practice for YOU?
And just to be clear —
It's totally unactionable.
What if your day-to-day life feels pretty uneventful?
It doesn’t work every day.
What if you don’t want to share your personal life? What if you don’t even want to show your face?
It doesn’t work for every person.
For the record, we've seen courses charge $1000+ for that super vague advice. And, well, DUH. You see influencers do that all the time. But the problem with that advice is…
What if you’re selling a product or service that has ZERO connection to your life whatsoever?
And it doesn’t work for every business.
…So what’s the investment?

We know what you’re thinking.
“But will this work for my business?”
The sales strategies and writing formulas we teach in Sell With Stories will work for any service-based or product-based business, including:
If you’re not sure if Sell With Stories would work for your business, send us a DM! We’ll take a look at your business and give you our best recommendation.
Still have questions?
Ask away.
Don’t worry! We’ll show you how it’s done. In Module 6, Lesson 1 we walk you through how to post a story. You don't need any beginner knowledge prior to the course.
Sell With Stories will teach you how to increase your story views over time, but more importantly, it will teach you how to convert the views you DO have into sales! Don’t discount a single follower. You don’t need 10k, 50k, or 100k followers to start selling! Even if you have a few hundred followers, this course will be beneficial to you.
That said, if you want to learn how to grow a following on Instagram (without posting reels every day or waiting for a post to *go viral*), check out our masterclass Instagram Content Mastery! In that masterclass, we’ll teach you how to create content on your IG feed that will get more people hitting “Follow.”
It will take about 6 hours to complete all of the videos in the course. Every video also comes with a written transcript. It's self-paced, so you can complete the course in a day, or take your time with it. There's a lot of information to digest!
You will get access to all of the course content and downloadables immediately after purchasing! You’ll be asked to create a Thrivecart account where you can access all of the content, and revisit the course whenever you want to.
Forever! If we ever add to the course in the future, you’ll also receive the updated version.
Yes, we offer payment plans! You can choose to split your payment into 2, 3 or 4 monthly payments (so each payment is $450, $300, or $225, respectively). If you have a discount code, the discount will be applied to all recurring payments! If you're interested in more payment plan options, DM us @mahacopyco!
Yes! If you join our email list, you’ll get a 10% discount code you can use on your first purchase in the Maha Copy Shop. We also offer discounts for the following communities: BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, teachers, the disabled community, and for countries with astronomical exchange rates. DM us @mahacopyco for a personalized discount code if any of those circumstances apply to you.
Due to the nature of digital products (meaning: since you can’t *actually* return it), we don’t offer refunds. If you’re not sure if the course will apply to your business, reach out to us on IG and we’ll let you know if it will work for you!

Sell With Stories
It’s totally possible to feel confident and authentic selling on Stories.
We’ll show you how.
Stop making Instagram Stories an afterthought, and start making them the most profitable thing you do for your business.
But really…could this BE any more of a no-brainer?
I just finished Module 3... I got the most views I've gotten in a very long time. Almost 500 views on my stories and my account is only at 1,300 followers. I also got the most engagement I've ever gotten.

I'm only on Module 2 and I've already received way more value than I have spending thousands of dollars on "biz coaches." My favorite part is that you're not regurgitating someone else's information. It's literally gold.
-Kami
This course is so much more than just Instagram Stories... it's a storytelling formula that can be applied to the whole sales strategy.
