I’m diving into a question I get asked all the time by business owners trying to grow on Instagram: “When is the best time to post?” But if you’re looking for a magic time that guarantees more engagement and followers, you’re asking the wrong question.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• [08:34] [The Real Deal on Posting Times] – I share insights from the 2024 Metricool study, including global trends on the best times and days to post, and explain why your own data matters more.
• [12:21] [Content is King] – I dive into why Instagram success hinges on creating valuable content that makes people stop, engage, and share—not just posting at a specific time.
• [15:03] How to Check Your Best Times to Post] – I walk you through using Instagram’s Professional Dashboard to find out when your audience is most active and how to use this data effectively.
• [17:45] Consistency and Quality Over Time – Learn why it’s crucial to post consistently for at least 3-6 months to get reliable data, and why patience is key to building your audience.
