[ Journey ] IG Journey from a scratch by a total Newbie!

Surprising to see you here, glad to see your comments.

I have to attach to those accounts because i gathered 9 of them in the same "magazine" branda name, took its domain name, curated their brand identities etc etc. I even think about sponsoring a local design event under that account names. I am really thinking in long term about those accounts. So maybe i should read more about security. I dont have any luxury of losing that accounts.

I am not planning to make it another inspiration page in the IG ocean. selling ads or shoutouts. I dont know or plan how to monetize, but i am totaly against the idea about how to make a 50 dollars a day from your 50k account. I will try to avoid being cheap as much as possible. Will try to keep the party as long as i can

The pages are actually not a local business or business pages but they are inspiration pages. Thank you for sharng your comments and critics

I do come back to the forum once in a while, maybe once every month for a short while when I'm bored haha.

One thing to note, don't add the same domain to all your accounts. Ban Incoming.
Don't add link to your new account within the first 3 weeks. Ban Incoming.

Also don't bite more than you can chew, sponsoring a local design event won't gain you anything in return unless they're going to fully promote your IG account and making something fun or interesting in the event to make your account "rank" or hit better "outreach".

No problem, thats great to see. No worries man, I'll make you a deal, seeing that you're someone quite similar to when I started out.

If all your accounts all reaches 20,000 followers. You can reach out to me via PM for my skype and I'll give you tons of advices.

No worries, I won't ask anything in return. It's just a BET i'm making with you to see if you hold out.

If i cant make my pages 20K organicly in two months, then i should completely give up all my efforts and hours on reading and executing. I dont know how slow or how fast, but i will make an original , engaging , organic 20K follower base soonly. I made the best step by sharing my story and being able to contact with community

Haha. Exactly man.
Thats what I'm trying to tell these people.
I'm not faking everything.
50% engagement. Haha. 300+ comments on my posts.
Comments from verified public figures and shit on all my posts who have 1m+ followers.
Only the followers of people who just comment on my photos is over 50 million. Haha.
-
No fucking book and shit will teach you this.
No amount of good content will help you in this.
The worst bullshit is follow-unfollow. I laugh my ass on these bitches who do follow-unfollow to earn pity follow backs from kids. Haha.
-
PS - I am always following 0 - ZERO people.
These tricks people share in the books and blogs are for losers.
-
I'll help you out.
I got a hundred requests to teach people.
You're the last person I'll entertain as I'm teaching everyone for free.
PM me and we talk.
-
Cheers!
-
PS - Shout out is utter bullshit! Never do it.
And don't buy these power likes. They don't work unless it is extremely precise which they never are.
If your room mate gives you power likes only then it would make sense. As you would be able to control and inject precise power like as per the requirement of the algorithm.
If you're buying power likes from the internet. Haha. You're paying for bullshit.

Being classy and naive doesnt cost anything. But looks like the guy paid for his bad language.

I'm not going to say it's impossible to get 20,000K in two months, it is definitely possible however do note you're still a beginner and it does cost money and knowing how to reach 20,000 in two months with just "Fun" profiles.

Don't give up.

Continue till you hit 20,000 followers.
Also organically won't going to hit it unless you're really hardworking, just saying. But you don't have the time.

yes updates at certain points would be of help to everyone

UPDATE
Page One : 34 Follower 150 Following
Page Two : 68 Follower 161 Following

Hello everyone, you must seeing pathethic numbers in such days but i must say i am really putting so much manual work in to pages. And last two days i was handpicking my target followers. I am trying to be pick and asking the question; Would this guy buy from me if i announce a product or service in the future?

I am spending about a minute to analyze a target profile, like couple of photos and try different engaging comments for those accounts. I will not try only to get follower as much as i can but i will try to make a clean and well targeted follower base. I still did not start to automate, because as experts know there is not generic settings for those stuff. So i am trying to spend more time to understand my target audience and their following and buying psychologies. Maybe i over anaylze.

PS- as i said before, i have access to couple of 4yo 1M+ page owners, almost all industry leaders in my city , best events holding in my country and budget for invest in those accounts. But i dont want to waste and trash my credibilty and budget before taking an action. I will go little more aggressive next monday, and i will try to read more about hashtag and explore page algorythm.

I will happily appriciate your comments and ideas.

Goodluck with your journey man!

nice one, make sure to do stats that include before/after boosting with those 1M+ pages

Have trained 2 people so far. And yes - FOC.
Got plenty of money. Don't need anymore.
Someone even PM'ed me offering cash. I told them they're making a mistake.
Told them to take their cash to bullshit scammers who sell shoutouts and power-likes. Haha.
Those who were interested enough to learn have PM'ed me.
It takes ~30 minutes or so to give training.
Sharing it publicly will not help. I have to teach them myself.
Has to be customized.
Cheers!

how to contact you you cannot be pmd

Great that you are doing it very organically.

I am reading this, and following this. I am a newbie myself, this will help me alot. All the best OP!

Some people here really know what they are talking about.
@Rockstard112 I have an Instagram account which struggle to blow up ( because I stopped for while, and needed a break) but the potential is definitely there and I would like to exchange with you someday.

I am a newbie in IM, but I will build my way up!
