Newbie wants to learn about IG

Cheers,

In the last couple of months I started an experiment with IG, try to build an account from scratch. Doing just F(hit 2k then stopped) and some carefully chosen content posting I hit 10k followers. Did not pay for any shouts or any other growing service, only organic growth. Now growing in average 150 f/day.

I have some questions for more experienced users around here:
1. Knowing the top countries I have users from, how can I see what products or services I could sell in the future? Find niche specific products that sell better in certain countries. I DON'T plan to try any monetization in the near future but since this is a very side activity for me I try to plan my moves way ahead.

2. Since this is my first IM experience and also my first experience with IG... I didn't even had it installed on my phone before this, I really don't know how this account is performing. So is this a good, average or a bad growth pace?

Thanks guys.

Actually good !

Well done, try more accounts!

1) If you are thinking about selling products it mainly depends on niche ( For ex- If your page is about fitness then you can sell some fitness ebook or any course related to fitness ) I can give your monetization ideas only after knowing your niche.

2) The results are pretty decent but now you have 10k followers you can start using s4s ( sharing each others pages ) for massive growth .

1) Well, at some point yes, I will try to sell something. But my question was more general, hoping that others could benefit from advice. One has a niche IG account and basically how could he/she use the "Countries" information from the audience tab in IG to better target the sales.

My account is in the moto niche, by the way

2) Glad to hear that, I'll look soon for similar accounts and do some sharing.

@SerbanM Moto niche is somewhat hard to monetize, is it a personal account? If yes then you can monetize it for getting hotel bookings (travel sponsorships etc)

The growth is fairly decent. Good work , keep it going!
