I feel like I'm creating content and getting no results—just a few views and generic comments. Should I keep going?

Yes, absolutely keep going. Early on, it feels like you’re working hard for almost nothing—a handful of views, a few polite comments, no sales. That phase can last weeks or even months. But consistency is what breaks through. You might post 50 reels that go nowhere, and then one connects with the right person or goes viral, and suddenly your follower count jumps or you get a serious buyer. Growth is not linear. Every piece of content you post is practice, and it’s also a chance to be discovered. The algorithm and your audience need time to learn who you are. Many successful artists went through exactly this—they kept showing up even when it felt pointless, and eventually momentum built. Trust the process, keep posting, and don’t let slow early traction discourage you. The breakthrough often comes right when you’re ready to give up.
