Hey brave friends!
I recently attended We All Grow Summit in Long Beach California as a speaker and got to sit in on a super-secret workshop taught by the Instagram staff on how to grow and build your influence on Instagram. We weren’t allowed to take video during the class but we were allowed to ask questions and to share our notes with you, and that’s what I’m doing in today’s podcast. There was so much content covered we decided to split this episode into two. On the first part, I’m giving you IG’s best practices and laying the groundwork for everything we were taught. And on the second part of this episode, I’ll be talking about IGTV, answering your most common Instagram questions and giving you action steps, you can implement immediately to get yourself or your business seen on Instagram. So, let’s get started! 

Here What We'll Cover on This Episode
