📊 The Repurposing Flywheel: Teach with a Carousel
Bold Opening
Sometimes your audience doesn’t want a story.
They want a step-by-step map.
That’s where carousels shine.
Carousels turn your email into digestible, swipeable lessons that feel practical and actionable.
Story to Hook You In
One of my clients, a designer, turned a vulnerable email into a 5-slide Instagram carousel.
The original email? A story about her fear of launching a product.
The carousel?
1. Hook: “3 fears I had before launching my offer”
2. Slide 1: Fear of rejection
3. Slide 2: Fear of failure
4. Slide 3: Fear of being salesy
5. Last slide: CTA to join her newsletter
The result: 28 saves. 16 shares. And—this is key—new subscribers who wanted the deeper story.
The email built trust. The carousel built reach.
Step-by-Step Breakdown
Here’s how you turn your mothership email into a carousel today:
1. Start with a Hook Slide
Think big bold text:
· “3 lessons from my last launch”
· “Why your emails aren’t converting”
· “The mindset shift that changed everything”
2. Break It Into Steps
Take the key points from your email. Keep each one to one idea per slide.
3. Use Visual Cues
Icons, arrows, bold colors. Remember: people are swiping fast.
4. End with a CTA
Always finish with something like:
👉 “Want the full version? It’s in my newsletter.”
👉 Or: “DM me the word FLYWHEEL for the email version.”
Why This Works
· Carousels get saves. Saves = long-term algorithm love.
· Carousels teach. You become the guide, not just the storyteller.
· Carousels drive action. A CTA slide turns curiosity into clicks.
And the best part? You didn’t start from scratch. You just reframed your email.
