Credit: @sun.yi I used to say “my content is better than theirs, why are they growing faster than me?” I found out they were doing all the right “tactics”. They never miss a day of posting, they spend 8 hours a day engaging, they study other popular content and replicate it... And every post I see from a big creator, there they are in the first comment, kissing ass. I tried doing these at first, but it felt gross. It just wasn’t me. I also didn’t have the time. I got an actual business to run. I’ve seen some of them go from zero to 10k in 3 months. It took me 4 months to get my first 5k followers. And then something interesting happened... It took me less than 1 month to get the next 5k. Then 10 days to get the next 5k. This week I got almost 10k followers barely posting anything! I was growing exponentially while others were still growing at the same rate. I did this by creating relatable content. Everyday I get DM’s from people saying: “My best friend told me about you and I’m so glad she did” “I found you on explore and I stayed up all night binging through your feed” “I feel like every post you make is speaking directly to me” “I’m patiently waiting for your next post” When you build a community you’ll have higher engagements and algorithm comes to you. When you become a slave to the algorithm, you have to keep feeding it, else the growth stops. Do you really want people to follow you because of an algorithm? Or do you want them to follow you because of YOU? 💥 Follow @setu.academy 💥 #reels #postsizes #hashtagsfordays #logodesigning #logodesignideas #contentideas #contentmarketingagency #contentcreationtips #uiuxdesign #uiuxdesigner #uiuxdesigns #marketingconsultant #digitalmarketingstrategy #socialmediastrategy #socialmediaexpert #instagramreel #instagramreels #instagramtutorial #learnbyinstagram #youtubeshorts #aida #marketingfunnel #digitalmarketing #igtips #iggrowth #instagramhacks #instagramstory #brandstrategist #branddesigner #branding_design (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHanLNYHg5B/?igshid=hz4t8hdlem3o
