If the only avenue you have to meet with your customers is on Instagram, then you must be deliberate and focused on what you need to achieve in the long run. Achieving your Instagram goals, in the long run, starts with the short term goals which are broken into daily, weekly, and monthly goals.
So in this article, I will dwell on your daily goals which should become your daily routine in seeing massive growth.
- Post at least once a day and be consistent about it
- Check your Instagram analytics and note the best time of the day when your followers are active. This should be the best time for you to post
- Make use of hashtags. Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags, however, do your research, choose the best tags(click on the hashtag and note how often and frequently it is in use). If you are still growing your brand, be wary of using hashtags with a large audience. Your posts may be lost! You could decide to have 3 sets of 10 hashtags which you can use intermittently
- Welcome and respond to at least 80% of new followers/comments on your post
- Identify prospects you want as your followers, leave a minimum of 2 comments on their posts daily.
- Make use of your direct messaging. It works perfectly for prospecting. Identify and leave a minimum of 5 DM messages for prospects. Start with something positive about their page or content
- It is a social platform, you cannot be an island, find and follow a minimum of two valuable accounts daily
- Awesome content (Captions, Copy, and Visuals) does the trick every time
- Do not always be business-like, allow your audience to see a little bit of your inner self. They need to see that you are human with real challenges and victories like themselves
- Do not spend all day liking posts, be strategic, allocate a duration daily. It could be between an hour to two hours invested in growing
- Lastly, reach out and make friends!
This daily routine is a key Instagram growth hack. You must be deliberate and intentional about building your followers. Follow this daily routine like your doctor’s prescriptions and you are sure to see results!
