My top 3 tips to grow your instagram:

1. Do not use the big hashtags. Let's say you are a fitness coach and you see everyone using fitfam so you use that.  I want you to do is search fitfam and then scroll down the list and use the things that don't have millions of tags. Why? Because your gonna stay in that tag longer and people are going to find you. 

2. Colors. It's all about colors. 

3. Consistency. You need to be posting twice a day. I know with me having 7000 followers I know my followers are not on all the time. If your post twice a day, you're doubling your chances of getting into their feed.
