Stop chasing the numbers and start chasing impact. Hereās howšš»
If social media growth is one of your 2025 goals, hereās the truth: the likes, follows, and viral posts donāt matter as much as the purpose behind your content.
Hereās how to grow with intention in 2025:
Focus on connection: Respond to every DM, comment, or question with care. Social media is about building relationships, not just broadcasting.
Show up consistently: Yes, even if you have a small audience, post regularly with valuable, authentic content. You donāt need 10k followers to make a difference.
Speak to YOUR people: Forget the masses. One of the most common mistakes is trying to reach everyone. Write and talk as if youāre talking to one person who truly needs your help. When you connect deeply, others will follow.
Purposeful growth takes time, but itās the kind that lasts.
Cheers āļø

Great topic but Iām clearly in need of some more consistent habits again š
āš»
However, I donāt feel burnt out at all and thatās what really matters imo.
What are some healthy habits you have incorporated in your social media matters?
And what are some things you are struggling with?
Feel free to chat with us in the comments or over DMs.
My DMs are always open and I am all about creating those healthy habits and find some time to detox.
Other than that, happy holidays!
Cheers š„

Donāt mind me asking Matt about feet & hot women š¤£āš»
Oh well, sometimes you just need a good ole chit chat with bold beginnings and unconventional advice.
The 3 topics we talked about:
1. Do women have an advantage when it comes to Instagram growth?
2. What are you grateful for?
3. Is Instagram removing hashtags completely?
ā¦and how to market a new and local business.
Have fun rewatching this and if you wanna add to any of these topics in the comments please do.
Weād especially love to hear your take on the feet š¤£š

šØTHIS is how I stay on top of 16k videos & photos in my camera roll! Hereās is the ultimate pro hackšš»
Once you organized everything into folders and albums, hide all the albums > go back to your recents > delete > unhide the albums
This keeps your camera roll always clean and organized. However, make sure before you hit delete, you donāt delete anything you might still need or havenāt moved into a folder yet.
Let me know what you think and if you need another tutorial for the pro tip š
Cheers āļø

And Instagram said theyāre not a photo editing app. I guess theyāre wrong! š¤©
If this isnāt a new Instagram hack, I donāt know what is!
THIS is a dream feature for all the creatives! Iām so excited to use it in my upcoming IG Stories and canāt wait to see what you come up with.
PRO TIPS:
Use this new feature to highlight specific elements in your photo.
EXAMPLE:
Use it to highlight:
1. Your product in different ways
2. A destination
3. Your ingredients in a recipe
ā¦or like me to show off specific highlights in my new content creation studio @grcreatorstudio
āØStay tuned for the full story idea though. Itās not done yet š
Do you have this new photo editing feature yet?

Well, THIS was a short and sweet geek talk!
šØEver wondered what the Instagram API looked like!?
Here you go šš»
Matt @getslay.so and I will keep you updated on whatās happening in the backend, analyze insights and share how we see things changing on the platform.
Oh, and if anyone tells you hashtags donāt matter anymore, donāt trust them.
šØInstagram finally admitted to call hashtags keywords!
I really wonder how many gurus have access to Instagrams API before they share all the hashtag advice š¤£āš»

Donāt mind me stepping out at my comfort zone and going live from Adobe MAX only to give you a sneak peek of whatās happening behind-the-scenes.
Cuz thatās what we all gotta do if we wanna grow personally and in business š
Also, I am clearly hung over, just because of a lack of sleep *obviously š
So for the people in the back: Iām at Adobe MAX and not Adobe live, but Iām going live from Adobe MAX so I guess it works š¤£āš»
Thanks for tuning in.

Hereās to filming Instagram tutorials while youāre at Adobe MAXā¦love a good bedsheets moment š
Also, what a perfect timing for me right nowšš»
This is such a great feature if youāre on the Go like me right now attending a conference or a networking event and you donāt wanna hand out business cards, because people are just gonna throw them away.
Just get out your phone, open your profile card and have them scan the QR code. That will instantly take them to several options like follow your account or visit your website š
āØ if you have any questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments or reach out in the DMās. Iāll be happy to answer your questions as always.
Cheers š„
