As business people, there are SO MANY social platforms that we have to navigate. It can feel overwhelming at times! When I first started out, I was suspicious of Instagram. I wasn't sure that I needed to use it, to be honest. But I went to a conference where the speaker told us that we NEEDED to be on Instagram, and after hours and hours of research, I know that he's right. Proper Instagram technique can drive engagement and real results in your business. That's why I've created a quick and dirty Instagram training that you can watch right now to get you and your business thriving on Instagram. Watch my video for 5 steps you can take RIGHT AWAY to increase and leverage your Instagram presence. These steps WORK! In just one month, I doubled my Instagram following and engagement. 🔮What's Your Purpose? Create your business profile and establish its purpose. WHY are you on Instagram? Keep your business channel separate from your personal profile - your business followers don't need to see kitty pictures every day. Business profiles should be strategic and consistent! 🔮What's In A Name? Set up your Instagram handle, your profile image, and your bio so that viewers will know who you are and what you do within 5 seconds of landing on your profile. If you confuse, you lose! Strive for consistency in branding across platforms, so your followers can find you wherever they go. 🔮 Planning Is Your Friend. If you want your account to grow, your theme, messaging, and hashtags must be strategically planned. Your themes (4-5) should be consistent and spaced throughout your calendar. Don't forget to strategize your hashtag use! Research hashtags you'd like to engage with, take a look at the number of posts associated with that hashtag, and use hashtags that are a mix of low-number hashtags that can help you personally brand and mid-sized hashtags with about 50,000 posts. 🔮Take a Look at Your Content. Work with your content to achieve clean formatting within your 2200 character allowance. Aim to post 1-3x per day with clear, focused content. Each post should serve a specific purpose: to educate, to inspire, to entertain, or to engage, and every post should provide value. 🔮No Ugly Posts Allowed. Your Instagram page shouldn't give someone a headache because it's confusing or ugly! Make all of your posts aesthetically pleasing. Follow your brand and create a posting pattern - nothing should be random! Also, be on the lookout for more exciting news from your team here in the coming weeks! Lots of exciting news about new programs, events, and so much more! 😍
