How to Start an Instagram Account From 0 (part one)

Listen Later

If you listened last week, you would have heard all about my new business venture - Mackenzie Studios. Part of that business is starting new socials, so I thought it would be a good idea to document the process of starting an Instagram account from scratch.

Here are my 7 tips for starting an Instagram account from 0:

  1. Make a business plan to understand your goals and audience
  2. Give yourself a good pre launch period
  3. Focus on good content and lean into storytelling to captivate a new audience
  4. Start by posting a good amount of posts in the first 3 days to establish a good catalogue of posts and then get back into a regular posting schedule that works for you
  5. Collaborate with others
  6. Get on other platforms
  7. Allocate a budget for paid ads

    8.  

    Thanks so much for listening. As always I would love it if you could subscribe to my podcast on the platform you're listening. If you're on Apple Podcasts, I would appreciate a review!
