Hello, and welcome back to another episode. I'm so excited to talk to you about how to totally go viral with your Instagram Reels. And I will tell you, we will talk about if it's time for you or not. I'm going to give you all the juicy details on that. And we're also going to talk about comparing it to TikTok, which you're already doing. So by the end of this, not only will you know exactly how to make them go viral, but you're also going to know whether or not it's the right time for you to get into Instagram Reels. But first, a listener review. So this one is from "The Happy Workaholic". It says "Not only was I a guest on Kimberly’s show I am also and will be always a fan! Excellent content for business owners! She is top notch when it comes to sales and marketing as well strategy. Tune in and binge her episodes! You won’t regret it."

Thank you so much, girlfriend. I really appreciate you, Kelly. I love your podcasts as well, and I love when we can collaborate together. So for those listening, please drop a review. You can get featured and shouted out on one of my episodes, I would really appreciate it. Okay. So when it comes to Instagram Reels, I think the thing that people, the downside, the danger zone is that you might think, "Oh my gosh, this is it", right? "Like, this is the way, Oh, it's the hottest thing, I totally needed to do it. What if it's that thing?" And sometimes, and I talked a lot about this. Beginning of this year, I moved, I changed network marketing companies. And I talk to people about, when you make that change, you have to first ask yourself, "is the grass greener on the other side, really?

Or is there something I'm doing?". So we always think, "Oh, go to that new company, try that new platform". But you have to ask yourself the foundational pieces that will work on any platform. Are you doing those? Do you have a million dollar DMO? Do you have a million millionaire mindset, right? Like, are you working on your mindset every morning? Are you doing your daily activities? Are you reaching out, following up posting content? Are you being consistent? If you're not doing those things on Facebook coming over to Instagram Reels is not going to change your business. So the first thing is to have a heart to heart. The first thing is to ask yourself, "are there foundational pieces that I know I should be doing everyday? And I'm just not "right. "I'm just not, I'm treating it like a hobby. I'm not consistent. I'm not focused. I keep squirreling". 

Okay. That's the first thing. The second thing is to ask yourself, "does this make sense at this point in my business to layer in this platform?".
