BLOG 289: WELLNESS ENTREPRENEURS! GET 8 X MORE VIEWS ON YOUR INSTAGRAM STORIES WITH THIS TIP

So, in today’s blog, I am offering a handy little tip for all my wellness entrepreneurs out there.

Boost Your Social Media Visibility with This Instagram Stories Hack

Are you a wellness entrepreneur looking to make your mark on social media? Whether you’re a face yoga teacher, a personal trainer, or a holistic coach, Instagram can be a powerful tool for expanding your reach and engaging with your audience. 

One particularly effective feature on Instagram is Stories. They offer a great way to share behind-the-scenes glimpses of your work and keep your followers updated. But did you know there’s a trick to making your Instagram Stories stand out even more?

The Benefits of Instagram Stories

Instagram Stories are a fantastic way to connect with your audience on a more personal level. They disappear after 24 hours, allowing you to share content more casually and frequently. 

You can use Stories to provide a peek into your daily routine, post motivational quotes, or share updates about your services. Plus, you can add links to direct your followers to your website or booking page.

The 24-Hour Reset Trick

If you want to give a particular Story a significant boost in visibility, especially when promoting an offer or a new class, consider using the following strategy:

1. Post Your Regular Stories: Begin by sharing your usual set of Stories. This might include several updates throughout the day - perhaps 8 to 10 Stories showcasing different aspects of your practice.
2. Allow Stories to Expire: After your Stories have been live for 24 hours, let them completely disappear from your feed. This means there will be no new content for your followers to view.
3. Post a Single New Story: Once your previous Stories have vanished, post one single, standout Story. Choose a high-quality image or video that effectively communicates your message. For instance, if you’re launching a new class, use a visually appealing photo or graphic with details about the class. If you prefer not to use a photo of yourself, a plain background with the necessary information will also work well.
4. Avoid Posting Additional Stories: To maximise the visibility of your new Story, refrain from posting any more Stories for the next 24 hours. This way, your single Story remains prominent in your followers’ feeds, making it more likely to be seen by a larger audience.

Why This Method Works

The key to this strategy is that it helps reset the visibility of your Stories. Instagram's algorithm tends to favour fresh content, and when your feed is empty, your new Story has a better chance of standing out. 

 This method can result in up to eight times more views compared to a standard posting schedule. However, it’s best not to use this technique every day to avoid diminishing its effectiveness. Instead, mix it with your regular Story updates to keep your content engaging and varied.

Enhancing Your Instagram Presence

For wellness entrepreneurs, leveraging Instagram effectively can be a game-changer for growing your business. Beyond this 24-hour reset trick, here are some additional tips for making the most of your Instagram Stories:

• Share Behind-the-Scenes Content: Give your followers a glimpse into your daily activities or the inner workings of your practice. This personal touch can help build a stronger connection with your audience.
• Post Testimonials and Success Stories: Highlight positive feedback from clients or share their success stories to build credibility and trust.
• Engage with Interactive Features: Use polls, Q&A sessions, and quizzes to encourage interaction and gather feedback from your followers.
• Promote Special Offers: Use Stories to announce exclusive discounts or promotions, driving engagement and encouraging your followers to take action.
