The Secret to Growth on Instagram

Edward Sturm
About this episode

E568: This is the secret to growth on Instagram.

1. Post manually through the Instagram mobile app. Don’t use automation tools or views will be suppressed. Instagram doesn’t like shared IP addresses.

2. High-frequency posting. Post a lot. The brand in this posts 100 times PER DAY to Instagram. They get 9.2 billion impressions per month. And people are trying to emulate them. Insanity.
