Want to be Instagram cool?
If you are like me, you’ve trawled Instagram, wondering “how do these darn people on Instagram get so famous”?
Imagine: It’s Friday morning and you’ve promised yourself you’d hit the gym today.
You spring up to check your cellphone.
Opening up Instagram.
Wow, you think, Over 800 likes on one picture.
You put your super-duper soft slippers on and head to the kitchen for some tea. After putting on the kettle, you pull out your phone again.
Presto! Another 49 likes.
Ding—a message pops into your inbox from a follower. They are asking you for advice on how you manage your food, and are congratulating you on your third month of hitting the gym.
The kettle blows and you pour your tea. When you flip out your phone, there’s another message–this time from a young girl–thanking you for posting. She follows you religiously and you are an inspiration.
As you begin to write back, your cell buzzes again.
Hmmm, ANOTHER message. You close your cell and throw it in the bag. Time for the gym.
Anyways, you get the point. This is the life of an Instagram celebrity. I should know, because I’ve made many of them.
Now, this is the point in time where you learn to take control of your Instagram.
Now, what if you raised your engagement by 100%, or 1000%?
