3: TREAT YOUR COMMUNITY ON INSTAGRAM

LIKE GOLD

One of the biggest mistakes people make when building

their Instagram account is that they only ever see their
followers as numbers.

Followers aren’t the only metric that matters when it

comes to Instagram, but you can get caught up and
become so obsessed in growing your follower count that
you forget that each person who chooses to follow you is
actually a living, breathing human being. It doesn’t matter
what kind of account you’re running, whether it’s
personal or business, the same is true everywhere.

You must always respect your audience.

I really can’t stress that enough, and it’s become even
clearer to us as we’ve gained experience with the
platform. If you’re not paying attention and listening to
your audience, then you’re no longer building something
that has any sort of meaningful impact. All you’re doing is
stroking your ego.

So how do you know if you’re connecting with your

audience? While your follower count may be the most
important metric, our journey to 1 million followers taught
us that you must also pay attention to your engagement
levels. This means how many likes you’re getting, how
many people are bothering to actually comment on your
posts, how many people actually go through
your Instagram sales funnel.

According to the famed Pareto principle, 80% of your

results only come from 20% of your audience, or 80% of
your revenue only comes from 20% of your customers.
While more of a rule of thumb than a hard scientific fact,
the Pareto principle should make you realize that it’s not
about having a large
follower count as
much as it is about
having a large core of
engaged followers.
A true follower is someone who absolutely loves your
content and what you do. They’re the one that, if asked,
will put down money because you asked them to, or
purely because it’s something that you made. Think
about any time you’ve been loyal to a brand and chose
them over something else.

If you ever want to develop any sort of influence or

exposure, this should be your primary goal in growing a
huge follower count. Ten thousand followers isn’t
impressive unless you have at least 1,000 true followers.

That’s why we treat our

community like gold.

For example, we are very

strict on making sure we
reply to every comment
possible. ->
