Summary
I’m checking in with an update on all things social media marketing: Specifically, Instagram. I have heard many of you ask: How can I organically grow my audience on Instagram? I see this question come up in most of the groups I am in and with most entrepreneurs. Now in Episode 7, I broke down How to Grow Explode Your Social Media Audience with Five Steps and Zero Dollars.
There, I went step by step through my methodology and the steps I used to grow my Instagram over 1000% in a year. Today, I am here with updates, updates. As you know, you miss a day you miss A LOT when it comes to social media. Case in point: The last time we spoke, there was no Instagram stories and certainly no Instagram LIVE.
On this episode, we will get into:
- What’s working and what’s not on Instagram How to find your target audience on Instagram - *NEW INSIGHTS*
- Why you CAN start a business on Instagram
- What you can accomplish with even 30 minutes a day on Instagram
- The number one reason why your following is NOT growing

| 0:23.6 | So first of all, before I really get into today's show, |
| 0:27.3 | I want to talk about a couple of cool things |
| 0:29.4 | that have happened since I last did a solo episode. So first of all I went to Philly for a conference |
