95. What's working right now on Instagram for wellness pros
<p><br></p><p>Instagram is a tool that many of us have a love/hate relationship with and feel confused (and often filled with comparison) by how to use effectively. We know it <em>can</em> help us reach loads of ideal customers, yet somehow our accounts are the ones stagnant on numbers, only being followed by other practitioners and feeling like a total time suck.</p><p> </p><p>To finish off the year I wanted to bring in an Instagram expert in the field of using the social media platform as a form of marketing for wellness professionals - someone I know has boundless enthusiasm (and evidence!) for what the Instagram can do for you and your business, if you use it right.</p><p> </p><p>So I hope today you love listening to Marketing & Instagram Expert Molly Cahill, with insider knowledge of what's working right now on Instagram to get your health practice booked.</p><p> </p><h5>In this episode we talk about: </h5><p> </p><ul><li>How follower numbers mean absolutely nothing when it comes to getting booked: we share stories of knowing practitioners with 100k+ followers are struggling for clients and those with 300k+ have to cancel events when they don't sell enough tickets</li><li>How even Instagram is embracing a return to <em>slow marketing,</em> using your platform to build stronger and deeper relationships with your existing client base, rather than always looking for more, more more people</li><li>How a 'growth sprint' of 30-60 days of posting regularly, particularly with Reels and carousels (that can be repurposed!) can see a massive surge in the effectiveness of your Instagram account, if you can commit to it</li><li>Metrics that are worth measuring and using to determine future ideas for content such a shares, saves and profile visits and simple small tweaks to calls to action that see x4 responses</li><li>Employing a philosophy of 'quantity creates quality', and posting <em>something</em> rather than trying to make it perfect and strategic straight away. It only comes from practice!</li><li>The new (quicker and less cringy) way to make Instagram Reels work as part of your social media strategy</li></ul><p> </p><p>Molly talked about her podcast episode <a href="https://mollycahill.com/5-simple-tips-to-help-increase-your-instagram-engagement-today/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> 5 Simple Tips To Help Increase Your Instagram Engagement Today</a> which includes tips on writing attention grabbing hooks.</p><p>We talked about <a href="https://www.simonegraceseol.com/podcast/garbage-post-challenge" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Simone Seoul's Garbage Post Challenge.</a></p><p> </p><p>Molly mentioned <a href="https://marketingforhippies.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tad Hargrave Marketing For Hippies</a></p><p> </p><p>Molly <a href="https://mollycahill.com/how-to-increase-instagram-engagement/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">has this podcast episode on scrappy ways to improve Instagram engagement.</a></p><p> </p><p>I was interviewed on Molly's podcast Holistic Marketing Simplified talking about the four business model archetypes which you can listen to <a href="https://mollycahill.com/four-types-of-health-wellness-business-models/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> here</a>, or take the quiz <a href="https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/61ec137cd09aae00181f654f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Connect with Molly:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://mollycahill.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Molly's website</a></p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/mollyacahill/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Molly on Instagram</a></p><p> </p><p><br></p><p> <strong>Molly's free stuff: </strong>Download Molly's <a href="https://vickyshilling.krtra.com/t/KQznuJa09DXc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Reels training and 101 marketing prompts for health and wellness pros</a></p><p> </p><p><strong>Working with Molly </strong></p><p> Molly runs the <a href="https://vickyshilling.krtra.com/t/di56e0GnvMZa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Holistic Marketing Hub</a> teaching you everything she knows about using Instagram to promote your health and wellness business. <a href="https://vickyshilling.krtra.com/t/di56e0GnvMZa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Find out more.</a></p><p> </p><p> </p><h4>Love this podcast?
