    I completely ignore call to actions, I think they are annoying.

    A lot of people do! But really invested audiences won’t. A lot of people ignore billboard ads but they still work 😅

    That tip about leaving space at the top and bottom is gold!! I didn't realize in editing how much of text gets put over your reel, like your IG nam and part of your caption. A lot of my words weren't even readable in my early reels. Now I make sure to put the text in the middle and it's made so much of a difference in views! 😊👍👍

    Thank so much for this video. You gave me a whole new way of thinking about all of this. I am a legally blind artist and I found a way to do art that I love. My family and friends love my art too so I decided to sale my are online. I built my own pop up shop and I am happy with what I did but I thought O no I have to start posting on Instagram. I didn't want to do it because I tried before and I didn't have any success. I didn't want to just slap my art on social media and call it good. I didn't want to approach this like I did the last time. Over the years I heard about giving value but I didn't know what that meant as an artist but your video explained it perfectly. I already changed my bio and now I have a great plan moving forward. Now I am excited about getting up in the morning and working on my art and inspiring people on social media. You taught me to give value first then make a sale later. I can't wait to start this new journey now. Thank you so much for this video. It was very helpful❤

    no more mistakes! thank you for sharing! i had a question. right upto 2020 (from 2016) , i was doing fabulous and had amazing clients with a 95% conversion rate. after reels got introduced , i have been getting very low quality clients. i work in the luxury real estate market and my ideal clients are those who can afford expensive things. Can you make a video showing how to attract these clients, coz i am not a luxury client myself so i really dont know what their frustrations, problems or motivators are, hence its difficult for me to define my ideal client. i have done all things mentioned in this video and it still doesnt seem to be working. i have been trying to grow since 2022 and i am being very patient. follower count is not what i need - targeted right clients need to see my content! thanks much for listening! :)
