DAY 4: Content That Converts Cash
The R890 Per Post Money Formula
Awe Digital Revolutionary,
"The R67 400 Content Secret: How One Caption Made More Money Than Most Jobs Pay in 3 Months"
This morning, while you were sleeping, someone in South Africa woke up to THIS:
📱 "Payment received: R680"
📱 "Payment received: R450"
📱 "Payment received: R890"
📱 "Payment received: R550"
Total: R2 570 before 7 am.
All from ONE Instagram post made yesterday.
That's more than most people make in a WEEK.
She made it while she slept.
The difference?
She knows THE SECRET.
Today, you learn that secret.
By 8 pm tonight, you'll create content that doesn’t just get likes but
gets payments.
Content that makes your phone BUZZ with "Payment received" notifications.
Content that turns strangers into customers who literally beg to give you money.
Last year, Day 4 changed everything for Thandiwe from Mpumalanga:
BEFORE Day 4:
Beautiful photos: 234 likes
Inspiring captions: 47 comments
Sales: R0
Bank account: R850 (stressed)
AFTER Day 4 (Same products, NEW content formula):
One post: 1 847 likes
284 "MINE!" comments
23 sales in 48 hours
Bank notification: "R15 640 received"
December total: R67 400 PROFIT
SAME PERSON. SAME PRODUCTS. DIFFERENT CONTENT.
R67 400 different.
That’s:
💰 Apartment PAID
💰 Her mom’s medical bills CLEARED
💰 New laptop BOUGHT
💰 Emergency savings STARTED
💰 Christmas shopping DONE guilt-free
💰 January 2025 started with R40 000 in the bank
All because she learned the R67 400 Content Formula on Day 4.
Today, that’s YOUR formula.
Here’s what’s happening today:
You’ll learn the EXACT psychology that makes people stop scrolling
and start SPENDING.
You’ll discover the caption template that generated R280 000
in sales for last year’s participants.
You’ll create 10 pieces of content that each have the power
to make you R890–R2 500 PER POST.
By tonight, your Instagram won’t just look pretty.
It’ll be a MONEY-PRINTING MACHINE.
Let me ask you something:
Would R20 000 extra in December change your life?
That’s just 30 sales at R680 profit each.
That’s just 3 posts using today’s formula.
That’s 7 days from now if you start TODAY.
R20 000 = Your January apartment instalment + groceries + transport + SAVING.
And it starts with the content you create today.
Let’s turn your phone into a cash register.
S’Phanda Sonke Online – elke dag We’re Money Makers!
P.S. Last year, the first person to post using the Day 4 formula
made R2 890 in sales within 6 HOURS.
That record is waiting to be broken.
By YOU.
TODAY.
Vandag!
THE R890-PER-POST MONEY FORMULA
Part 1: The R67 400 Content Mindset
Learning Objective: Shift from "creative content" to "cash-converting content"
💰 THE BRUTAL MONEY TRUTH:
Most people create content to:
Look pretty ❌
Get likes ❌
Build a following ❌
Express creativity ❌
None of these pays for your apartment monthly instalment.
Your content has ONE job: MAKE MONEY.
ARTISTIC CONTENT = Beautiful + Likes + R0
MONEY CONTENT = Strategic + Sales + R67 400
Choose wisely.
THE R67 400 REALITY CHECK:

💡 WHY THIS MATTERS:
When you connect content to REAL MONEY that solves REAL PROBLEMS, you stop posting pretty pictures and start posting RENT MONEY.
Part 2: The R890-Per-Post Content Formula
Every piece of content that makes R890+ has these 7 ELEMENTS:
ELEMENT 1: The R890 Hook (First 3 Words = Make or Break)
The Money Psychology:
You have just 1.3 seconds before they scroll past.
First 3 words decide if you make R890 or R0.
❌ BROKE HOOKS (R0 earned):
"Check this out..."
"New product alert..."
"DM to order..."
"Hey guys..."
✅ MONEY HOOKS (R890+ earned):
"STOP SCROLLING! 🛑"
"SOLD OUT IN..."
"LAST 3 LEFT..."
"DON'T MISS THIS..."
"R520 CHEAPER THAN..."
💰 THE MONEY IMPACT:
Test: 100 people see your post
Broke hook ("Check this out"):
- 3 people read the caption
- 0 people buy
= R0
Money hook ("STOP SCROLLING!"):
- 67 people read the caption
- 8 people buy
= R5 440 (at R680 each)
Same product. Different hook. R5 440 difference.
🎯 ACTIVITY 1: Write TEN R890 Hooks
For YOUR products, write 10 hooks that make people STOP:
1. STOP SCROLLING! _________________________________
2. SOLD OUT IN _____________________________________
3. LAST ___ LEFT ___________________________________
4. DON'T MISS _____________________________________
5. R___ CHEAPER THAN ______________________________
6. EVERYONE'S BUYING _______________________________
7. THIS WON'T LAST _________________________________
8. FINAL CHANCE ____________________________________
9. BREAKING NEWS ___________________________________
10. YOU'RE ABOUT TO ________________________________
Test on 3 friends.
Which hook made them want to know more?
That's your R890 hook.
ELEMENT 2: The R890 Emotional Trigger (Make Them FEEL It)
The Money Psychology:
People don’t buy products. They buy FEELINGS.
Your job: Make them FEEL what your product gives them.
❌ FEATURE-FOCUSED (R0):
"Face cream with vitamin C"
✅ FEELING-FOCUSED (R890+):
"Walk into any room glowing like you just came back from a R50 000 spa retreat"
💸 EMOTIONAL MONEY TRIGGERS:
EMOTION | PRODUCT ANGLE
| MONEY RESULT |
CONFIDENCE | "Turn heads at every December party"
| R680/sale |
FOMO
| "Everyone at the office has this" | R450/sale |
RELIEF
| "Christmas shopping DONE in 10 minutes" | R1 200/sale |
PRIDE
| "Give gifts that make people gasp" | R890/sale |
BELONGING | "Join 2 847 women who already glow" | R550/sale |
🎯 ACTIVITY 2: Emotional Rewrite Challenge
Rewrite YOUR product descriptions using emotions:
YOUR PRODUCT: _______________________
BORING (Feature): _______________________
MONEY-MAKING (Feeling): _______________________
EXAMPLE:
Boring: "Gift hamper with snacks and wine"
Money-making: "Give the gift of 'OMG you shouldn't have!'
Watch their face light up. Feel like the best gift-giver ever. All for R680."
YOUR TURN:
Product 1:
Feature version: _______________________
Feeling version: _______________________
