[Need Advice] Growing Instagram for Indian Singer

Hello People,

I have been lurking around for a while now and have read so many methods about how to make it big with Instagram, so I thought of starting using what I learn here to experiment and improve by helping one of my friends who sings really well and wants to pursue this professionally.

So, In the last week of December, I took control of his Instagram account (2years+ old verified account) and started botting with jarvee on the warm-up settings. In the last couple of months, I have made a list of researched follow sources and hashtags for best results and running Jarvee on these settings:-

-Following 750/day, Unfollowing 750/day (without any bans)
-Not using like tool and DM tool(Do not have any idea how to go about that SAFELY)

Results so Far:-

-5K followers
-following 800/day and gaining 100/day follow back
-On every post, I have more than a 1000 likes and 100 comments minimum, which is an engagement ratio of 22%, if I am calculating right
{
Calculation :
(Likes+comments on a picture)/Number of Followers = Enagement Rate on SINGLE POST

[(Likes + comments on each picture)/Number of pictures]/Number of followers = Average Engagement Rate
} Please let me know if these are not right.

What are your thoughts about it, do you recommend any changes?

Now what I want to do,
I want to grow account organically and instead of botting the main account I want to use child account strategy.
I want to make use of techniques like using power likes and shout outs to expand the reach. And would love to hear about any suggestions and improvements.

Thanks in advance

Please let me know if I wasn't able to communicate anything properly.

It means you want to build a personal brand on Instagram.

As a singer, you have a great platform i.e youtube. It would be the best option to grow your Instagram ( first build fanbase on YT and then drive them to your IG )

But if you don't want to do that, then you can use Paid promotion ( shoutouts). Indian pages charge really cheap for a shoutout, you can promote your singing video on their page.

Or if you don't want to spend money, then start engaging people which might be interested into your singing ( first find pages which are similar to yours and engage with their followers by replying to their comment's )

Thanks for your feedback
I have tried this earlier but for this thing to work we need accounts with good engagement rate in the same niche to do the shoutouts, and its really hard to find accounts like those. but lets say i find out some pages, what should be the price for shouts on an account with 50k followers and 10 % engagement.

The price is not fixed, every page will give you a different price. So you have to message them personally
