 Welcome to part two of our four-part series on making more money on Instagram using organic content! If you’re tired of posting and hearing crickets, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down five content types that are working right now to attract high-value followers AKA, people who actually want what you sell. Plus, I’ll share how to create content in a way that feels aligned with your brand (not forced) and fits seamlessly into your schedule.

Key Takeaways:

  • Content that converts = content that connects. It’s not just about posting more—it’s about posting the right kind of content that attracts high-value followers.
  •  Instagram’s algorithm favors engagement. Use trending audio, memes, and direct-to-camera reels to boost visibility and reach.
  • Carousels are NOT dead! Add trending audio to get them pushed into the Reels feed.
  •  Consistency + alignment = success. You don’t need to post every day—just show up in a way that works for you and your brand.
