How to help you fledgling Instagram account in 3 steps

in #marketing7 years ago

I've been testing an Instagram bot, shhhh, on a test store and it's doing an amazing job! Then I realized thatI have not been giving that platform enough attention. It's driving traffic to the store, people are commenting, and all it's doing is liking and following people. So I dug up 3 ways to help you Instagram account.

Use Your Bio:

In your bio you want to pick 2-3 things that really stick out about your brand. You would want to pick something that your customers would want to know like a store with free shipping, secure transactions and high quality products. That simple features, call to action, link, and it's Instagram don't forget your emojis it is Instagram

Trending, Trending, Trending

Keep an eye out for things that are trending on social media and use those hashtags to full effect. With Instagram's Search and Explore they will now show you pictures, videos, and hashtags that are similar to your interest. Which makes it even easier to find trending tags for you to promote. Just make sure you do a little research, you don't want to be promoting Gorilla Glue with some #Harambe tags. Or maybe you do, you have to know what works for your audience.

Add Text

When you post your pictures on Instagram add text to some of them. If you were having a sale maybe 30% off written above the product, but you can put whatever benefit you are offering. If you're doing weight loss put a quote from a satisfied customer. Have a new info product? Put the best benefit. This will give people a reason to read your actual post.

There you have it inspired by my Instagram bot selling drones. I'm not sure if that was some sort of Skynet inspired Inception there but there you have it. In summary: sell your brand in the bio, keep up with trends, and add text to pictures. If you need some more tips check out my free report #TrafficSecrets @ http://davidallanbarnes.com/trafficsecrets
