[379] How to grow your Instagram followers by 1k in 30 days 0

Nov 15, 2019

Are you trying to grow your following on Instagram, but things aren't moving as fast as you'd like? Fed up with people telling you to “just post more pictures of yourself” to get more followers? But how do you know if that is actually what your ideal client or customers want to see? Would you love to know what to post on Instagram to REALLY get your clients or customers engaging with you?

If so you’ll love my latest podcast episode in it, where I share three key strategies that I've used to grow my Instagram followers by over a thousand followers in the last 30 days.

I look at three key strategies. What kind of content to share and how I went about making key changes to my Instagram content by creating content that my ideal clients or customers were interested in. I also share how often I’m posting and how to analyse what time you need to post to reach your followers.

I also explain how you can get your content shared so that it can go viral and why you shouldn’t be afraid to be inspired by other people’s content and how to go about sharing other people’s content on your Instagram account to increase your following.

PLUS why you HAVE to experiment to see what type of content your audience likes and why you shouldn't feel a failure if your content flops.

And finally, I talk about hashtags and the strategies you can use to get the Instagram algorithm to show your posts to more people.

So if you're looking to grow your Instagram account, you definitely need to listen to this episode. I’d love to know what you think.
