3 Unspoken Instagram Rules That are Just Myths

You get how it is - trying random hacks found by scrolling, and the results are wild.

Here are the three “rules” to avoid and the reason behind each of them.

Myth #1: Not replying to comments or ghosting makes your brand desirable.⁠

🌟 It makes you neglectful, not cool. This is different than taking social media breaks or needing more capacity to reply to all.⁠

Consider seeking community management services to help your brand connect digitally with your target audience and join online conversations relating to the brand.

Myth #2: Focus on followers because more followers mean more clients.⁠

🌟 It’s not always true. While a strong following can build credibility, the followers may not be in your target market, resulting in talking to non-prospects. Tailor your message in front of the right people is preferred.⁠

No business is one size fits all. Sometimes, other KPIs can move the needle far more than getting too caught up with follower counts.

Myth #3: Post every day to grow your account.⁠

🌟 Find a balanced posting schedule that works for your business. Otherwise, exhaustion will grow before revenue.⁠

Consistently showing up and connecting with your audience can increase brand awareness, but it shouldn’t detract from other priorities for your business.

Consider outsourcing a social media expert to help you create relevant content and manage social media channels. ⁠ Running a brand is difficult; you shouldn't have to guess and hope while promoting your business on social media.⁠ For social media management, content creation, advertisement, or consulting support, see how we can work together. 🤗⁠
