"I've just set up a new business and I have zero idea where to start. I need to get a following and more customers."
“My main problem is getting my followers to engage with my posts. About 100 followers always see my posts, but I rarely get more than 25 likes.”
“I'm putting effort into my content creation and posts but I can’t seem to reach a wider audience.”
“My numbers are stuck and I'd really like to grow them.”
“I want to be respected as an authority but can't do that with 200 followers.”
“I’d like to get over 10k followers so that I can use the swipe up and have more credibility and trust.”
“I want to have people who are interested in buying my offers. The more followers I have the more I can monetize them - hopefully.”
“If I don't monetize eventually this will be a very time-consuming pastime.”
UNTIL I FIGURED OUT The Secret To Explosive Growth On Instagram (And No, It Doesn’t Involve More Screen Time)
Love it or loathe it, if you have a business or brand that you want to grow, Instagram is the most relevant and powerful platform for your business to thrive (and not just survive) in 2022.
There are over 1 billion active Instagram accounts – that’s the entire population of the U.S. and the whole of Europe... combined.
Plus, it’s estimated that people spend on average 53 minutes a day scrolling through Instagram. (If you’re prone to falling into its seductive blackhole, this figure probably won’t surprise you.)
Meaning it gives you access to an ENORMOUS, engaged audience – and without the hassle of setting up a website and the subsequent headache of needing to rank in Google’s complex algorithm… phew!
So you have a tremendous (and easy) opportunity to reach a crazy amount of people, right?
Well, yes and no.
Given the staggering amount of new content posted daily – some 250 million IG stories and 95 million photos – that also summounts to a hell-of-alot-a competition.
Meaning now it’s even harder to stand out in the “scroll sea” and make a meaningful and lasting impact.
Never before has it been more important to craft and curate your posts, captions, stories (and basically everything you do on Instagram) in an intentional and highly strategic way.
If you want to increase your followers, engagement, and income on Instagram – you need to know the powerful one-two punch to mastering Instagram.
You need to have “behind-the-scenes” knowledge of how the platform actually works so you can leverage its full (and ever-changing) potential.
You need to know how to create killer content… consistently… that hooks your followers by the heartstrings.
This is how I organically grew my Instagram account from 0-20,000 highly-engaged followers in 18 months – and what I have taught to THOUSANDS of small businesses and brands just like you.
"I enrolled in Instagram Secrets To Success during the lockdown which was the best thing I’ve done since I started my business a year ago!
When I enrolled, I only had 74 followers (& was decreasing🙈) but now I have over 1,000 which is huge for me. I took your advice and really focused on ideal followers so a lot of my followers are actually my customers!
My income has gone up A LOT and about 80% of my customers come from Instagram! I am based in the UK and didn’t ship worldwide before lockdown and now, because of Instagram, half of my customers come from outside UK ❤️
The bonus is I actually started to enjoy using IG especially after you introduced me to Reels! This course has been so so helpful!!"

Give Me A Few Hours, And I’ll Show You How To Accelerate Your Growth
It’s been said that it takes some 10,000 hours to truly master a skill.
This translates into about 9 years if you worked on this skill solidly for 4 hours a day, 5 days a week.
I don’t dispute this number when it comes to mastering many skills… such as making award-winning sushi, writing page-turning fiction books and becoming a prized painter – to name a few.
But I can promise you that this mastery rule does NOT apply to Instagram once you have a system in place.
(Sidenote: Some of the best developers in the world have spent years fine-tuning Instagram to get as many users hooked as possible, so even if you’re a self-proclaimed “techno-phobe” – this one really does work in your favor!)
I personally spent months decoding how Instagram worked so I could use it to accelerate my own business growth.
But after cracking its secrets and experiencing explosive success, I wanted to create a system for small businesses and brands like yours. A simple system that would break down what took me months to decipher, in less than a day.
A system so easy and effective, that once you’ve put into practice, guarantees you’ll have a proud smile on your face while saying:

IMAGINE WHAT IT CAN DO FOR YOURS...
I grew my own account to over 20k highly engaged followers in less than 18 months and have used Instagram as the main way to attract paying clients and build a thriving business that allows me to travel the world and work wherever, and whenever I want.
Instagram is the engine of my business that allows me to make money while I sleep.
And I've taught thousands of other women how to do the same.
Over the past few years I have worked with authors, photographers, restaurant owners, artists, coaches, course creators, realtors, bloggers and aspiring influencers and shared my proven strategies and time-saving systems to help them successfully grow their businesses through Instagram, without having to spend all day, every day on the app.
Now I want to help YOU apply the exact strategies I've developed and perfected over the past few years to your own Instagram account, so that you can grow your online following and turn your passion into a profitable business inside…
Food Blogger Julie from @goodiegoodieglutenfree was stuck at 5k followers when she joined the course. She’s now at 8.2k and growing every day. She’s also getting more brand sponsorships and is working on her first online course, using Instagram as a platform to connect with her ideal clients.
Live Coach Chi Quita from @thechiquitamack grew her following from 500 to 15,000 followers in a year! “I realized, to get to where I want to get to I have to invest in myself. I’m investing in so many other people, it’s time I invest in myself!”
Cosmetologist Kathryn from @diariesofaglowgetter grew her following by 900 in less than a month of joining! She got approached by Sephora to join their ambassador program - they found her through the hashtags she was using...
Before joining the course, food blogger Christie from @christieathome was posting every day and engaging with 100 different accounts each day. And yet, her growth was stagnant… and she didn’t understand why. In less than 3 months, Christie increased her profile visits by 64%!
Makeup Artist Fiona from @fionaeustace grew her following by 2.000 in 30 days! She used to think Instagram was a chore. She joined the course because she knew that Instagram is an essential platform to be on in her industry - now she actually loves going onto the app...

There is one other option…
If you’ve been reading this and thinking, “Yeah, I really see the value in using Instagram to grow my business, but it just ain’t my thang”... there is one other option.
You can always outsource it to an agency or freelancer who does get all hot under the collar for Instagram. Which I totally get the appeal.
After all, there are certain tasks in my life that I outsource to free up time (or reduce gray hairs) – so ain’t no shame in that.
But, there are 3 main problems you need to be aware of before you trust anyone else with your account:
It can be really expensive!
For an agency to manage your account – including writing posts, creating images, hashtags research, responding to comments and DMs, engaging with other accounts, creating IG stories, running ads and everything else, you’re looking at $1,500 a month... as a starting price.
Ouch! A freelancer might be slightly less depending on their experience and how much you want them to do. But you’re still looking at hundreds and hundreds a month. Which if you’re a small business starting out, isn’t exactly spare change.
No matter how much experience an agency or freelancer has, they’ll NEVER have the same passion for your business as you do – it’s simply not their baby.
They won’t have an intimate understanding of your customer’s needs, your unique voice and tone, your offering and your business needs. They won’t have the natural inclination to nurture its growth in the same way you do.
An agency’s hours and responsibilities will be fixed
Meaning if you want to test out a random new idea at a minute’s notice, or try out some new feature that was not included in their original contract, you’re either going to need to do it yourself, or cough up the extra cash.
But Imagine having the skills to do it all yourself - to have the knowledge so that YOU can get powerful results.”
To have the creative and strategic skills to consistently create compelling content on the fly.”
So instead of spending money outsourcing to someone else, you're making money as a result of your badass expertise (***cue empowered Beyonce song).”
