If You Only Have 30 Minutes on Instagram Today… Do This!
I often get asked, “Tracy, if I only have 30 minutes to spend on Instagram. What should I do?” As an Instagram strategist, I wish I could sit down with my tribe to chat about IG over a smoothie bowl.
I know that isn't possible. So I really want you to walk away from this episode knowing what the one thing you should do with your next 30 minutes on Instagram actually is.
Are you open to getting out of your comfort zone so you can welcome growth? If not, you may let your Instagram ego get in the way of this strategy.
KICKING YOUR EGO TO THE CURB
When we get our Instagram ego out of the way, we're actually able to create content that helps people. Content that allows people to acquire some new form of knowledge, have something they didn't have before, become something, do something, progress in some sort of way, or maybe it simply helps them feel a certain way.
All of those things are ways to HELP your audience. When you take yourself out of the picture, you will see that you really do have so much to offer your tribe.
The simple strategy of teaching something back via IGTV is what we're going to dive into today – just you, me, and some Instagram strategising. A dream come true 😍

>> [2:16] I'm going to be sharing and teaching you about a particular Instagram success story that you can replicate and apply to your own business. So, I have to ask… Are you open to getting out of your comfort zone so you can welcome growth?
>> [2:53] Huge shoutout to two MWH Podcast listeners – Alyssa (@takethereinsvirtualsolutions) and Linda (@mountaindreads)! Thank you so much for your positive reviews. You both have lit me up.
>> [4:34] I often get asked, “Tracy, if I only have 30 minutes to spend on Instagram. What should I do?” I really want you to walk away from this episode knowing what you should do with your next 30 minutes on Instagram.
>> [5:25] Here is the scoop… IGTV! It's so hot right now. Back in episode 178, I discussed how you can leverage the power of IGTV. If you have 30 minutes to spend on Instagram, I want you to get on and experiment with creating yourself an IGTV video.
>> [6:43] In episode 184, I shared with you three types of content that will grow your blog or podcast… but that's not all it's going to grow. These types of content can also be shared on other platforms, so listen to that episode with IGTV in mind.
A Social Method Society Member's Incredible Instagram Results
>> [7:37] What I'm going to share today has helped one of my members in The Social Method Society, and she has experienced an incredible result by sharing one IGTV video. Check Alice out at @aliceinhealthyland on Instagram!
>> [8:50] With a subtle adjustment, Alice's latest IGTV was able to clock over 9K views and she has received a bunch of comments. Plus, a bunch of her followers have also tagged their friends as well. Yes! Her followers were introducing Alice as an authority in her niche.
>> [10:00] So what did Alice do differently this time? Well, taking inspiration from Episode 184, Alice shared a video where she was teaching something. She was teaching something back that would help her audience!
>> [11:14] Lean into the discomfort because if you're feeling uncomfortable about something, then it's leading to growth.
>> [12:42] I encourage you to think about a piece of content that teaches back something that you know or something that you have been able to move through to help someone in your own experience.
>> [14:02] You need to be turning up with intention on Instagram. Imagine it! Every time you turn up on IG, your following is growing, you're building your email list, etc. You cannot create your own Instagram strategies with your own IG habits in mind.
>> [15:09] If you are interested in learning more about a holistic Instagram marketing strategy, then you need to get into The Social Method Society. The doors are not always open, but you should jump on the waitlist so you're notified as soon as the doors are open again.
>> [16:15] If you decide to be bold and brave by creating an IGTV that teaches back something, I want you to send me your IGTV (@mumswithhustle) and let me know that you tried this strategy. Plus, I'd love for you to share the outcome so I can give you virtual high-fives and hugs.
