Creating Community Increases Instagram Growth
On today’s episode of Instagram for Business Nat goes solo. And Is speaking about community and the importance behind it. Nat recites a statement she heard recently“We don't need a lot of information. We need a lot of connection, which comes from community. It gives us courage to do the things.”The absolute best way that you can get people to feel connected to your business, to make them feel heard, to make them feel like they're part of something, is to create a community around it.Where can you find communities? This is the question that most of you are probably. Where do I find this community? We have a community and course. Which is a group of likeminded businesses who cheer each other on. They are lifting each other up. They are commenting on each other's posts. They are sharing each other's posts and, you know, within the Facebook group as well, they're cheering each other on when they have what we call a Wednesday win.Community is a place where it unites us. It makes us feel we are part of something big and it can give us confidence. Confidence comes from so many aspects, like skills we have, what we've learned through our life, what we're good at, or how we've been raised. But it also comes from being in a group of people that think the world of you that think you are pretty incredible as well.And then we leave that world. And how do we find this community? Well, you might find it through something you're interested in. So whether it be sports or another particular activity, whether it be book club, but it also can happen through business. Networking events can be great.You may find a club, whether it be, you know, rotary or BNI, that is an opportunity to have a community of business like-minded individuals. You've got this road and you're paving your way, but the truth is, is that many people have paved the way for you, whether it be your parents, whether it be your friends, whether it be a boss. And creating a community around referring to one another helps everyone involved. Including the customer. They already trust you. They’re already coming to you to hire you for your skills and your services.Don't take on everything. Don't be a Jack of all trades. Don't do the things that you don't feel comfortable with. Send them to somebody you feel connected to. And that's another way to create a community. So it's sending referrals to other people it's sending more business and obviously more opportunities. And others will do the same for you. That community that you're building are not going to necessarily just be customers. If you’re interested in joining our community, we would love to connect.https://the-social-focus.mykajabi.com/instagram-for-business-salespageJOIN INSTAGRAM FOR BUSINESS NOW!
