This was so helpful, I love detailed step-by-step game plan. I just always need more ideas of what to post on the reels because I don’t want to just look like I’m selling stuff lol
I love this video! and the 30 day challenge aspect makes it seem so much more doable. I downloaded the free gifts you offered and I'm just curious what you used to build out the website page for that? It looks really good.
I just watched the video and downloaded the ideas, etc. I have grown my Instagram account from zero to 142 followers on my own, and I am sure following your plan will help me grow even more. I have a successful Etsy shop, but want to grow my own website business as well.
@@StarlaMoore Believe it or not, I had NEVER taken any video with my phone before. I started taking videos two nights ago and made my first posts on Instagram yesterday and today. I still have a LOT of learning to do! Editing was driving me nuts on previous attempts at taking video on my camera, but you led me to look at Capcut, and I was able to edit my first two videos very quickly.
We run our live streams with a professional streaming set-up, a 4k camera, a multi-mic set up, and a LOT of tech. So unfortunately adding another streaming layer to this set up with be very difficult. At this time, we are the only Etsy RUclipsrs who are able to stream live in 4k. I'd prefer to reduce the chance for error by keeping the content on RUclips, though we may eventually duel-stream to Discord, since it integrates with our existing set-up. Thinks get tricky when we try to mix a mobile-optimized streaming platform.
Do you have any tips for creating reels for a POD business? As I can't show how I pack orders or make them as I don't do that... beginner here 🙋♀️🙋♀️
I did a video about Pinterest, which you can find here: ruclips.net/video/OHrSOHCjQ4g/видео.html Instagram is the only one that I created a challenge to do. It's the one that I most recommend to start and to gain followers.
Hi, first off Erank is amazing! I've been cleaning up my shop using the dashboard, I'm feeling so much better about the seo as well. I wanted to ask what exactly are attributes? I read the explanation and I'm drawing blanks on what I'm looking for to change or update.
Attributes are the little drop-down menus within your listing editor that allow you to fill out details about your item, such as who it's for, the colors, style, materials, etc. Attributes will be specific to the category you select. 🙂
In most cases, your phone will be absolutely fine, assuming it isn't over 5 years old. Instagram likely isn't displaying reels at true 4K, so as long as your phone videos are crisp and clear, they should be perfect. And if you edit your videos using the free CapCut app that I mention in this video, you can export those videos at 4K.
I seem to break all the rules. I mix up business and politics and some daily life. I'm counting my idea that the audience that likes my politics are generally the same as those. who like my products. And, that the people who like some of my totally non political items don't even go on insta.I could be wrong, I often am. But I DID switch to using keywords in the text for SEO. It's been fun, and thank you!
I think it's all about knowing your target audience and knowing what is important to them. Some brands can totally get away with weaving politics into their brands. For me, if I were shopping for something like pet food, I might feel a little weird about buying from a brand that posted about politics, as the niches aren't at all congruent. But if I was shopping for something like women's skin care products and saw that the brand also posted about women's rights, that would make sense to me. So it's all about knowing how your posts tie back to the target customer you're trying to attract. 🙂
On instagram, as long as you have a business page or a "creator" account, you should have a button on your profile that says "Insights". Within your Insights, you'll be able to find the times when your specific followers are most active. 😊

Yes! Account audits are something you should do every few months to clear items that aren't congruent with your content. I do them every few weeks as well!
Social media doesn't have to be scary. Find what works for you and only do one of them. That's why I love Instagram. It's the easiest one to start with, I think. ❤️

Thanks, great info! Just a query, why don’t you go live on Instagram at the same time you’re already live on RUclips? Would that be workable?

I think in the Meta Business Suite, we can schedule Stories for FB and IG now. Is this something that you have found to work?

@@StarlaMoore got you! Thx for the fast reply and mostly for being the open book that you are
PS GUESS WHO MADE THEIR FIRST SALE TODAY LOL
WOOOOOO!!! Congrats!!! 😍🔥
Are there any apps you recommend for filming? Or do you just use your camera phone or Instagram video?

@@StarlaMoore Thanks, Starla.
I sell Latte Hammers .
My customers say that their coffee tastes so much better after a few taps.
What's the link for the video editing video please? 👀

what time should I be posting?
On instagram, as long as you have a business page or a "creator" account, you should have a button on your profile that says "Insights". Within your Insights, you'll be able to find the times when your specific followers are most active. 😊
Thank you!!!
You're so welcome! 😊🌞💛
But where are the ideas for reels, stories, posts, and streams? Where would I find them?
