ADVICE

Meta Glasses Story Boost

  • Download Brock Johnson's specific fisheye image and add it to a Story to trigger the Meta glasses signal.
  • Overlay your own photo via the Photos sticker to trick Instagram into boosting that Story.
ADVICE

Single Text Story With DM Trigger

  • Post a single, text-heavy Story each day and let all other Stories expire to create one focused view.
  • Add a DM automation prompt (reply keyword → deliver value) to increase retention and algorithmic boost.
ADVICE

Two-Slide Carousel Repurpose

  • Reuse a talking-head Reel by creating a two-slide carousel: an attention-grabbing headline then the reel.
  • This repurposes content and reaches more people because fewer carousels compete than reels.
