Hey friends,
I just want to preface this post by saying I am no way a social media expert. BUT I spend hours upon hours every week researching, asking questions, watching videos and testing out different tips and tricks. I also do social media for a handful of small businesses, so I like to think I know what I am talking about. BUT social media is an ever-changing beast! I am going to share 5 tips every month so we can tackle the best together.
1) Consistency Is Key!
Just like most things in life, we have to stay consistent. Online we want to be posting multiple times a week (on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, blog) BUT always remember quality over quantity.
2) Engagement!
Engage with your followers on your posts AND engage with them on their posts as well!
Your followers wanna know that you are real and that you care.
3) Don’t Purchase Followers!
Fake “followers” are bots/inactive accounts. You can buy as many followers as you want to boost your follower count, but trust me, you aren’t fooling anyone. Take the time to get an authentic following.
4) Take Advantage of all the Features!
For example: sharing polls, asking questions, IGTV, Going live, using the proper hashtags,
adding links are just a few ways you can take advantage of Instagram's features.
5) Insights!
If you have an Instagram business account, you can and SHOULD check your accounts stats. Instagram Insights are so important to pay attention too and use them to your advantage as it will tell you a lot about your followers.
I hope these tips help you this month! Make sure to check back next month for more!
xoxo,
Ellie Jade
