You’re an…
Instagram Superstar
You are a strong and bright presence. With your determination, you are able to inspire confidence in others. You're a thought leader, and you like to be in charge. That means it's important for you to take center stage in your feed. Your audience wants to see photos of...YOU! Which is perfect because being the strong face behind your brand is important for you. A feed featuring photos and videos of mostly you is really custom fit for your style. In addition to sharing photos of your shining self, let your audience know about your passions. Share what books you're reading, who's inspiring you, and all your mini obsessions. Inquiring minds want to know what this thought leader is thinking about. Here are some tips for you to totally rock IG…Because you have a strong vision for your brand, you can occasionally get attached to the picture perfect version of your business. But on IG, it's okay to show the cracks. In fact, people love seeing the little imperfections, because that feels raw and real. Though it might sound scary, letting yourself be vulnerable on Instagram from time to time will help your audience connect with you.Above all, put yourself out there and let yourself shine. "Be yourself. I much prefer seeing something, even if it is clumsy, that doesn’t look like somebody else’s work." — William Klein📸 PICTURE PERFECT 📸Here Are the 3 Tools You Need To Up Your Instagram Game1. Thrive with FiveIt can be super-challenging to know what to post to IG. The key to your feed posts is to choose five categories that you always post about.Let's say you're a fitness blogger. Perhaps your five post categories are:1. One-minute videos of your workout2. Mindset hacks to stay consistent with working out 3. Morning smoothie showcase4. Client success stories5. Everything about your dogYou'll notice that #5 isn't about fitness, it's about your life. Choose at least one category that feels a little more personal. That way your audience gets to connect with you on a deeper level. This is what fans are made of. Once you've locked down your five categories, alternate each post between each of the five. Absolutely no one will know you're repeating yourself. This will save you lots of mental energy, because you'll always have an idea of what to post. 2. Create your photo environmentChoose a wall of your space that is now your photo wall. You can even decorate that wall to match your personal brand's style. So pretend you're an art director, flex your creative juices and really create a cool environment for your photoshoots. Take some time to make the background reflect your brand style. If your style is homespun and whimsical, maybe this needs to be a corner full of plants. If you prefer something more clean and understated, a white wall or simple background will do just fine. Last but not least, check your lighting! Because when it comes to photography, good lighting is pretty much everything. 3. Batch that contentMany entrepreneurs can get overwhelmed by the need to stay consistent on social media. The key is to work smarter, not harder.If you're not batching your content already, it's one of the biggest game changers out there when it comes to getting more time efficient with your social media strategy. Set aside time once a week to plan, write, and create your posts. Creating batches of your content at once will keep you from spending longer than you'd like planning out that perfect post. Putting this time aside every week can also really help you stay consistent. Lights, Camera, Action...Oh hey, you natural born influencer!
