Just a little reminder you shouldn't:
πββοΈ Stress about "unfollowers".
πββοΈ Worry about what your friends think.
πββοΈ Care about what you look like in videos.
πββοΈ Spend hours trying to perfect your post.
Hereβs what you should worry about instead:
β¨ having a system for attracting your ideal clients,
β¨ creating a system for converting your followers to clients,
β¨ having a killer sales strategy.

πββοΈ Stress about the performance of hashtags
πββοΈ Obsess about what's the next trend
πββοΈ Be concerned about who is watching your stories
πββοΈBe consumed by always delivering high-quality content.
And here is how I'm dealing with it
1. I don't care about the performance because it's not driving any results.
2. In a world were everybody is doing videos, why not doing some visuals
3. I don't care who is watching my stories - i only cares about who is engaging with me in comments
4. Sometimes, even bad content can drive some good results.

@katairobi Thank you for sharing your POV. Many people out there should know that content creation is not easy and can affect our mental health. Despite of that, we should stay strong and self-confident.

I can see that Instagram can be used too as a marketing source. I've never used it or had any plans to use it, but if you tell me it can make a difference, I'll definitely start using it. And I love the tips you just shared. Please tell me: Should I start using instagram for my online platforms ?

@tigerteamx You should if you want to increase the number of potential customers. If there is your target group, go for it!
Worrying about what your friends/acquaintances think is so much harder to do. I struggled with this and sometimes still do but I always try to remember that whether I post or don't post, someone somewhere will always have a comment

@james_sukosd Yes, for some people you will not be good enough. Never. The most important is to be enough for yourself and to be the best version of yourself.
Fully agree
Become an Action Taker rather than a Perfectionist

@jagtarsingh2 I used to be a perfectionist, but I rather converted my approach to being a doer. I would have never been started if I had been the same.
100% agreed. Having clients should be the end goal

@prashasti_pankaj Honestly, I created my IG because of boredom. It was a kind of psycho-hygiene for me. But I did not expect, that I will be selling my services or I meet so many people I undergo so many adventures with. I am so thankful for that.
Love this! adding one more to the "should worry about section" BE CONSISTENT. Can't stress enough how important consistency is on all social platforms, especially instagram.

@george_kalandadze How often do you post (Stories, Reels, regular posts/carousels)? Just want to know. :-)
@busmark_w_nika 2 Carousels, 3/5 Reels, 1 regular post, 7-15 Stories. Posting 6 days a week. I found that Sundays are dead days, so use that time to strategize and plan out the upcoming week. Emphasis on Reels and Stories.

@george_kalandadze That is interesting. For me, weekends are one the best times to post. I also experienced more impression during the summer in my country (Slovakia) and I am also surprised because it was without running the ads.
@busmark_w_nika huh, that is interesting! Might be the niche difference?

@george_kalandadze I create content about social media, marketing, etc. What is your niche?

@kyle_desana I agree, Kyle, but if your audience is too big, you should hire a community manager that will do the work. Let's be honest. It is a full-time job that requires time if the answer should make sense.

Great question! When creating an "Instagram not-to-do list," it's essential to focus on the most effective strategies to avoid wasting time and resources. My advice would be to prioritize genuine engagement over vanity metrics, stay consistent with your posting schedule, and resist the urge to buy followers or use automated tools. Remember, quality content and building authentic connections are the keys to success. Feel free to connect with me on Product Hunt, and I'd be happy to support you when you're ready to launch! π
