I want more followers! I want more likes!

These are literally the only 2 things that people are concerned with when it comes to Instagram.

And yes, it can seem totally disheartening when it feels like you’re slogging your guts out showing up online and creating content and neither of these things feel like they are shifting.

However, as I’ve learned from my own experience - the number of followers or likes you have have zero impact on the success of your business.

And this is because there’s a huge difference between the people following your account and those who actually interact and buy. So in fact, the aim of the game is to stop focussing on growing an audience, and instead build a community.

In this week’s episode, I’m sharing:

• The benefits of having an active community rather than a passive audience
• Why going ‘viral’ should not be part of your strategy
• How to use IG stories to increase engagement and interaction with your brand
• A seriously underutilised tool on IG you can use to create a VIP experience for your community
