The number one question I get from my marketing students is, "How can get more local followers for my Instagram account?"

A lot of people ask this because their followers are primarily their family, friends from acupuncture school, or people from the other side of the country. In other words, people who are unlikely to become paying patients.

If this is you, you're not alone! I hear this ALL THE TIME from  my students.

Luckily there are quite a few ways to get your Instagram account in front of real people in your community and get them to decide to follow you.

Today we're talking about seven ways you can do just that.

And remember: Getting more followers is NOT a vanity metric. It's not about the number. It's about getting in front of new local people so you have the opportunity to teach them about acupuncture and how much it can help them.

The more followers you have, the more people you can reach with your message, the wider pool of potential patients you have. It's that simple.

Let's get into the episode and talk about these seven simple and effective methods!
