When it first started out, Instagram was a fun site for people to
use to share pictures. Now, it has exploded into one of the biggest social
networks. That explosion opened up the doors for marketers to use the site to gain
a following and eventually make money. If you decide to use Instagram in that
way, you will need to use the right strategies or you will not be successful.
Know Your Hash tags
If you have spent any time on Twitter, you probably know about
hash tags (#). The hash tag symbol goes in front of a word or group of words
without spaces to identify a category. Instagram also uses hash tags. You need
to use the right hash tags so people will find your pictures. That means you
need to come up with some hash tags that are related to your business or
opportunity. You can also use some of the most popular hash tags to tap into
trending topics. Popular hash tags include #tbt for Throw Back Thursday and
#PhotoOfTheDay for Photo of the Day.
Start a Photo Campaign
Photo campaigns are a lot of fun, and they are also a great way
to get noticed on Instagram. Come up with something related to your business
and then have people post photos using the hash tag you select. For instance,
you could create a campaign called #MyFirstMillion. Then, you could have people
submit pictures of what they would do with their first million dollars. They
might buy a yacht or get their dream home. It will be a fun way to get people
to dream big and it will get your name out there.
Use Pictures to Create a Story
Create and upload groups of pictures that tell a story. The story
should be related to your business. For instance, if you just made $20,000 with
your MLM opportunity, create a story that starts with you getting the money and
ends with you on a luxurious vacation. This is just one example. If you are
creative, you can come up with a story for just about anything. Don’t hold back when it comes to
stories.
If you aren't using Instagram, you are missing out on a lot of
potential customers and prospects. Be sure to add it to your social networking
campaign so you can reach even more people in more meaningful ways. Once you
get on there, have some fun with it while making a name for yourself and your
brand.
