In today’s episode, I’m sharing one of the simplest Instagram growth strategies I’ve tested—and it only requires a $5-a-day ad budget. After unexpectedly regaining access to running Meta ads, I started putting a tiny budget behind posts that had already proven they could turn viewers into followers. The results? Hundreds of new followers from just a few dollars a day.
I’m breaking down exactly how to choose the right post to promote, the results I’ve seen across multiple tests, and how long I recommend letting your ad run. But we’re not stopping at follower growth. I’m also sharing how to pair this strategy with DM automations so all that new traffic has the potential to turn into email subscribers, leads, and paying customers.
