We need to talk about some Instagram advice that seriously needs to retire 🥱 And even though the strategies I'm breaking down inside this episode are old, they are still used by lots of people on Instagram today (and even still get taught by some coaches today 😬). Unfortunately these strategies are just a huge waste of time... but before we get into what to leave behind, I'm also sharing what's still working, because not everything has changed, and I want to make sure you're not throwing out...

Last month 2500 people unfollowed me. On both my accounts actually: about 2400 on @evelongfield and 2500 on @sydneyguide.co. You know what I didn't do?

I'll tell you why and what I did do in this episode 🤗 JOIN GRAM ACADEMY - DOORS CLOSE MARCH 29 http://evelongfield.com/ga next round the price increase...

This particular carousel, posted by two well-known Instagram coaches, said that Instagram post sizes have changed.

But soon I found out I didn't miss ...
I’ll be honest: I thought Facebook was dead 😵 I hadn’t posted there intentionally in years, and I definitely didn’t see it as a platform for growth or income anymore. But then something unexpected happened... In this episode of Talk Insta to Me, I’m sharing how I gained over 27,000 followers and made over $2,000 in 45 days on Facebook, mostly by repurposing content I already had living on my phone. If you’ve ever wondered whether Facebook is still worth your time… this episode might sur...
