Lots of people ask me how to grow their Instagram. There's a little hack that I'm going to share with you that has to do with editing your post.

On all of your social posts, there should always be a Call To Action (CTA). Often I see great posts, but then doesn't give the reader any direction on how to act on what they just read.

Essentially google ads can be really expensive especially in certain categories. If you fall in one of those categories, consider running your ad campaign against a well-known competitor's business name instead of just the generic category.

Everyone is doing social media wrong today. Holiday posts should share stories that relate to the holiday and not just a generic "Happy Memorial Day".

Often, the best performing posts on social media are highlights of people. People like celebrating other people, whether they be employees or clients.

The real money is keeping your current clients. One way is to send weekly emails updating them on current news and trends. We also do personal check-ins to help foster a good working relationship. And we also ask them to give us feedback and reviews.

Social media is filled with all sorts of links back to their website. But the social media platforms want to keep people on their platform, so they don't like it when posts have links.

Creativity is something people compliment others about often. Creativity is essentially when your brain is working overtime. For me, it's when I'm in the shower. You have to intentionally put yourself in situations where you can be the most creative.

Ninety percent of the time, people will read a text message within 3 minutes. And 19% of the time, people will click a link in a text. Compare that to the 4% in email marketing and you can see the value in text message marketing.
