[00:40] Make sure you’re using the right tags.
[00:43] There are tools like RiteTags to help you with this.
[01:04] Promote your Instagram on your other social accounts.
[01:10] Get the most engaged people to follow you.
[01:18] The more engaged your followers, the more viral your post will end up being.

[01:52] Start doing stories and when people watch, get them to go to your website.
[02:13] Instagram Pods are a way of getting people together and like each other’s posts.
[02:57] Eric likes Unity Influence, which is a platform where you can find influencers (NOTE: Eric has invested in this company).
[03:22] When someone likes 20 pictures all at once, it doesn’t have as great an effect. If someone likes your photo and nothing else, your post will get a bigger bump.
[03:54] Eric hired a company that kept reposting other people’s motivational quotes and doing power likes.
[04:05] This doesn’t actually add value, so if you’re going to do something like that, you may as well use Canva.
[04:25] You also need to have the right content that caters to your target audience.
[04:32] Also, consider buying another Instagram account.
[04:45] The account that you buy doesn’t have to be active before you buy it, but it should be in your field.
