S2 E29 | PrincessFrenxh Inside the Algorithm: A Social Media Mastermind Reveals All

Ever wondered how social media influencers crack the code to massive growth? PrincessFrenxh pulls back the curtain on her remarkable journey from bartender to social media powerhouse with over 677,000 followers and 100 million content views.

The secret? “Dating the Algorithm.” PrincessFrenxh explains how treating social media platforms like romantic partners—giving them consistent attention throughout the day—yields exponential results. Her “breakfast, lunch, and dinner” posting strategy ensures maximum visibility across different audience segments. While most creators worry about posting too frequently, she boldly publishes 45 pieces of content daily across 15 platforms, strategically repurposing her work to maximize impact.

Another game-changer is her “Rule of Six” principle: the six people you surround yourself with determine your life trajectory within six months. When PrincessFrenxh wanted to transition fully into social media, she strategically connected with established creators, learned their methods, and integrated their practices. This transformative approach helped her go from charging $50 for promotional posts to building multiple income streams generating up to $40,000 monthly.
