The 10x10 Engagement Experiment
aka – How To Talk To Strangers On The Internet
A 10-DAY MICRO COURSE
100 real conversations in 10 days – without a single ‘just checking in’ message that makes you want to throw your phone in the bin 🙈Â
You’re showing up on social. You’re posting. You’re doing the thing. And yet… it still feels like you’re basically talking to yourself.
The likes trickle in. A few people watch your stories. But actual conversations and enquiries from people who want to work with you? Crickets.
The obvious advice is to “engage more”, but every time you think about sliding into someone’s DMs or commenting on a stranger’s post, something in you physically recoils. It just feels so… icky.
So you stay in your lane. Post. Hope. Repeat.
There’s a better way.
What if reaching out didn’t feel like… ‘reaching out’ (🤢) but like a cool chat with a new friend at a networking event?
You don’t need more followers or better content. You don’t need to post every day or crack some algorithm code.
You just need to start talking to the people who are already there in ways that feel completely natural, not salesy, and definitely not desperate.
That’s exactly what this experiment teaches you to do.
Here’s how it works…
Over 10 days, you’ll spark 100 genuine conversations with people who are already in your world. Not cold outreach, definitely NOT cold pitching. Just proper human connection, with people who already know you exist. This is what we’ll cover in the micro-course, via 4 x short 5-minute trainings:
The simple shift in approach that makes all the difference, so you don’t feel ‘salesy’ when you reach out to your contacts and followers.
Simple, low-pressure prompts that feel like you – not a sales script.
How to move naturally from having a ‘nice chat’ to sparking genuine interest in what you do.
When you engage with the right people, your content actually gets seen. Who knew?! 😉

FAQs…
Do I need a big following for this to work?
Nope. In fact, this works better with a small, warm audience than with thousands of strangers. You’re working with what you already have.
I hate anything that feels salesy. Is this going to be cringe?
This whole experiment is built around the fact that most engagement advice feels terrible. Every prompt in the workbook is designed to feel like something you’d actually say IRL, not something out of a bro-marketing playbook.
How much time does it take each day?
The trainings are 5 minutes each, there’s 4 of them plus a Workbook to note your answers and ideas. The training itself can be done within an hour, then the actual engagement I’d suggest allocating around 30 mins on Day 1 for your first go, then 15 mins daily once you’re in a rythmn. It’s the kind of thing you can do while you’re already on your phone, out and about – in a queue, travelling, waiting for the kettle to boil. No elaborate daily ritual required.
Does it work on Instagram and LinkedIn?
Yes, both. The principles are the same; the training covers platform-specific nuances so you can adapt your approach.
