What should I do with all the attention from a viral post to actually convert it into business results?

Use the attention to drive people to your website with subtle calls to action. For example, you could say ‘If you want to read more about this story, I have the whole description on my website - click the link in my bio.’ Make sure people know you’re not just showing pretty images, you’re actually selling them. Reference the viral content in follow-up posts to keep the momentum going. Post consistently right now because the algorithm has attention on your account - when you post, it will show up for people who engaged with your viral content. You could also create a series of posts giving backstory on the images from the viral video, with each post referencing the original and driving people to learn more or shop.
