The roast
13M followers, zero bio strategy—even Goggins is phoning it in.

Engagement is elite (3.71% at 13M+ is insane), but the bio is a lazy URL dump and the brand has zero monetization infrastructure visible on-platform. You're leaving millions on the table.

What works

  • Engagement rate is world-class
    3.71% at 13.8M followers is 7x the benchmark for mega-accounts. Your audience is rabid and actually shows up.
  • Hook strength is raw and authentic
    "Happy Monday, motherfuckers!" and "Time is running out!" — you open with urgency and emotion, not fluff. People stop scrolling.
  • Grid cohesion is tight
    Video-first, pain-focused, no random product shots or memes. The feed screams one thing: suffer to grow. That's brand clarity.
  • Following zero accounts is a power move
    It signals you're not here to play the game—you're the game. That asymmetry builds mystique.

What's killing your reach

  • Bio is a ghost town
    high
    "To learn more, visit..." tells no one WHO this is for or WHY they should care. New visitors bounce. You need a one-liner that positions the transformation: 'I turn soft into savage' or 'Mental toughness is a skill—I teach it.'
  • Zero monetization signaling
    high
    No link-in-bio strategy, no CTA to a product/book/course in captions. You have 13M people ready to buy and you're sending them to a generic website. That's a 7-figure leak.
  • Posting cadence is invisible
    medium
    131 posts total, cadence unknown—likely sporadic. Mega-accounts can get away with this because of reach, but you're training your audience NOT to expect you. Consistency compounds.
  • Caption CTAs are nonexistent
    medium
    Every post ends with 'Stay hard!' but never 'Comment your biggest excuse' or 'Tag someone who needs this.' You're not harvesting the engagement you've earned.
  • Content format is 83% video with no carousels
    low
    Only 1 carousel in the top 5. Carousels get 1.4x more reach and let you tell deeper stories (race prep, mental frameworks). You're underutilizing the format that rewards depth.

Exact fixes

  1. 1
    Rewrite bio to position the outcome
    high impact
    Replace the URL line with: 'I turn pain into power. Mental toughness coach | Ultramarathon legend | Author of Can't Hurt Me 👇' THEN the link. New followers need context in 3 seconds.
  2. 2
    Add a CTA to every caption
    high impact
    After 'Stay hard!' add one question or command: 'What's the hardest thing you did this week?' or 'Screenshot this and send it to someone who's slacking.' Doubles comment velocity.
  3. 3
    Build a link-in-bio funnel
    high impact
    Use a tool like Stan or Beacons to gate your book, merch, challenges, and speaking inquiries. Right now you're sending traffic into a void. Capture emails, sell products, stack revenue.
  4. 4
    Post 2-3 carousels per month
    medium impact
    Break down a race strategy, your morning routine, or 5 mental toughness principles. Carousels get saved and shared more—they're your SEO on Instagram.
  5. 5
    Establish a visible posting rhythm
    medium impact
    Even 2x/week on a schedule trains your audience to check in. Right now they rely on the algorithm to surface you. Own the calendar.
