In this episode, I’m sharing an awesome conversation I had with Tyler J. McCall, speaker, consultant, podcast host, and someone I consider an expert in building a loyal & engaged Instagram community.

We talk about why Instagram is such a great place for organic growth and connection with your audience, and the tools & strategies you can use to effectively connect with your following. Tyler also shares practical tips on getting started with Instagram Stories, especially if you’re unsure of where to start or maybe feeling a little scared to show yourself on video! Tyler even debunks the myth that a large Instagram following is everything; instead, he encourages you to focus on quality engagement and building relationships with your existing followers (and shows you exactly how to do it!)

So if you’re looking to convert your followers into fans, and ultimately, into buying customers, this episode is a must-listen!‍
