How To Increase Engagement & Attention on Instagram

Feeling like you are stuck where you are right now in social media and not getting any real results like you see other people doing? Well I was in the same position.

Felt like I was posting consistently and doing everything required for a strong social media profile and had been for around a year but wasn't seeing any real results yet. 

I was posting at the best times everyday, using the best hashtags and engaging with other accounts. But still no real large growth or even large engagement on the page to help create loyal customers.

I had to be doing something wrong but I just couldn't figure it out...

Until one day I was looking deeper into the accounts that were getting high engagement, but weren't celebrities, and noticed that almost all of them that had strong audiences were doing one thing that stood out to more...

They were focused on including their audience in what they were doing and engaging with them on a deeper level than just replying to comments!

How To Increase Your Engagement​

How to large and even small accounts get so many leads from Instagram, when I was getting so few?

That's what I was asking myself....

And when I started to look deeper it all came down to their engagement on the accounts!

The more people that were liking and commenting on their pictures every time, the more sales they were getting no matter how big or small their account was!

After looking deeper into their accounts this is how I found they were increasing their engagement:

They were running competitions and giveaways where people had to like and comment on their posts to increase their community and get people coming back for more!

They were also featuring some of the comments on their posts in their stories to help people get recognized like a mini shout out for their community!

These were the main two things but they also had things like their own hashtag they made up or were responding with meaning to comments. Both seemed to be working very well at increasing engagement.

Would definitely recommend trying out some of these strategies, I have just started implementing them and they are working too good!!

Increasing Your Instagram Attention

Have to seem like you are everywhere.

This one is a little more tricky but very possible to master when you do it right.

Essentially you are either going to be paying to be promoted on others accounts through shout outs on their stories or posts.

With this strategy you are able to create a high quality edit or post that represents what your page stands for and then you can reach out to larger influencers accounts with 10k-100k+ followers and inquire about how much a paid promotion would be on their page. 

The more followers they have the more a post on their page is going to be so decide on a budget and DM a ton of accounts asking what their prices are so you can find the most relevant accounts, with the most engagement at the best prices! 

The next way you can do this is going to be through creating a contest on your page, where you give away a free product or service in return for their follow and engagement.

Like you would put a post up on your story saying this and then start reaching out to other accounts to see if you could give them a free product or service if they promoted your giveaway on their page.

This allows you to grow your following and engagement fast, when you reach out to a large number of accounts, at little or no cost!

It's a new week, try some of these new strategies and lets get started making this dream life together!

Hope you enjoyed and learned something as usual.
