Instagram's 5-Second Rule

Instagram's 5-Second Rule

What is this “5-second rule”? I didn’t make it up, but I read this a while ago and couldn’t agree more… You have LESS than 5 seconds to turn someone into a Follower once they land on your profile.

So how can you turn them into a follower in less than 5 Seconds?

YOUR BIO DESCRIPTION

1️⃣ Have a clear and concise bio description: Who are you and whom do you help? Tell us clearly.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED

2️⃣ Include your physical location *especially* if you are brick + mortar. People want to know where on the globe you are.

YOUR ONE ACTIVE LINK ON INSTAGRAM

3️⃣ Your Website in your profile is the ONE active link you get on Instagram, so use it wisely. Landing page, latest blog post or use a tool like @linktr.ee

AN AESTHETICLY PLEASING AND COHESIVE GRID

4️⃣ Your “grid” – your last 9-12 posts should be aesthetically pleasing and cohesive together in one glance.

DO IG STORIES

5️⃣ Share 3-5 Instagram Stories per day.

USE HIGHLIGHTS FOR YOUR CONTENT BUCKETS + SOCIAL PROOF

6️⃣ Create Highlights to showcase your main content buckets, and any press/social proof related to your business.

There you have it! Time to turn those that land on your account into a FOLLOWER! 💥
