1
00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:05,940
Hey, guys, what's up, Joe Paris here and welcome to our very first quick win action exercise if you
2
00:00:05,940 --> 00:00:06,550
haven't already.
3
00:00:06,570 --> 00:00:11,690
Make sure to download the Instagram app from the Google Play store or from the App Store.
4
00:00:11,730 --> 00:00:16,280
You're going to need to have the app installed in order to participate throughout the rest of this course.
5
00:00:16,290 --> 00:00:19,500
The easiest way to do this is to actually just use your smartphone.
6
00:00:19,530 --> 00:00:24,090
I will be using my phone throughout this entire course, but also showing you other ways that you can
7
00:00:24,090 --> 00:00:25,350
use the Instagram app.
8
00:00:25,380 --> 00:00:30,540
Now, once you have downloaded the Instagram app, make sure to enter your email address or phone number
9
00:00:30,540 --> 00:00:31,730
and open your account.
10
00:00:31,740 --> 00:00:38,870
A pro tip is to select a username that is easy for people to find in search for demonstration purposes.
11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,240
I opened up a new account and made it J.W. Perez.
12
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,650
But my other two Instagram accounts, which I'm going to be showing you throughout the rest of this
13
00:00:46,650 --> 00:00:50,340
course, are Joe Dot Paris and Joe Paris Academy.
14
00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:56,760
As you can see, my name is easily recognizable in these user names, which makes it really easy for
15
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,910
people to find me and to search when using Instagram.
16
00:00:59,940 --> 00:01:05,580
Now, once your account is open, you will be brought to a starting screen that asks you to follow new
17
00:01:05,580 --> 00:01:06,250
accounts.
18
00:01:06,270 --> 00:01:10,890
I recommend following about fifty to one hundred people from this list.
19
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,540
The reason is it's just going to get you started and it's going to show Instagram that you're willing
20
00:01:15,540 --> 00:01:17,610
to give people followers first.
21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:23,910
This will trigger Instagram to start sending you some traffic and also some people may even begin following
22
00:01:23,910 --> 00:01:24,270
you.
23
00:01:24,270 --> 00:01:29,970
In fact, as you see in this demonstration video, we gained our first three to five followers using
24
00:01:29,970 --> 00:01:30,820
this strategy.
25
00:01:30,870 --> 00:01:33,420
Now, the next thing that you want to do is set up your profile.
26
00:01:33,450 --> 00:01:36,870
We're going to be going into a whole deep dive into this in a future video.
27
00:01:36,990 --> 00:01:39,380
But for right now, let's just get down the basics.
28
00:01:39,540 --> 00:01:43,130
The first thing I would recommend doing is setting up a professional account.
29
00:01:43,170 --> 00:01:48,660
This will allow you to see analytics and insights into your account, which is going to be very important
30
00:01:48,750 --> 00:01:49,980
when it comes to growing.
31
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:56,120
Once you select a professional account, you will need to select a category for a demonstration purposes.
32
00:01:56,130 --> 00:02:01,100
I chose educational, but you can choose one that is going to fit your profile now.
33
00:02:01,110 --> 00:02:06,870
Protip I'd highly recommend that you knit yourself when creating your Instagram account from scratch.
34
00:02:07,230 --> 00:02:09,180
We'll discuss this more to future video.
35
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:14,490
But for right now, just pick a main category that you think your account will be about.
36
00:02:14,530 --> 00:02:19,410
You can then enter your email and phone number if you want to have people contact you.
37
00:02:19,710 --> 00:02:22,170
This isn't necessary, but it's an option.
38
00:02:22,170 --> 00:02:24,390
And it's especially good if you're a business.
39
00:02:24,570 --> 00:02:30,240
You then can also connect your Facebook page so that when you post on Instagram, it will automatically
40
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,810
go to your Facebook as well.
41
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:36,750
Now, once you have that all set up, Instagram will recommend three actions that will help you get
42
00:02:36,750 --> 00:02:40,230
your account moving and attract your first one hundred followers.
43
00:02:40,260 --> 00:02:43,000
The first step is going to be completing your profile.
44
00:02:43,170 --> 00:02:48,510
This is where you're going to add in your bio and your website if you have one, if you do not feel
45
00:02:48,510 --> 00:02:53,030
free to link your other social media accounts here like YouTube or Facebook.
46
00:02:53,070 --> 00:02:55,590
Next, it's time to select a profile picture.
47
00:02:55,590 --> 00:02:59,570
I'd recommend a more professional headshot, but it's totally up to you.
48
00:02:59,610 --> 00:03:03,660
We'll discuss more about how to actually craft an amazing profile photo.
49
00:03:03,780 --> 00:03:06,700
But for right now, just pick something and keep moving.
50
00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:07,140
All right.
51
00:03:07,140 --> 00:03:08,190
Congratulations.
52
00:03:08,190 --> 00:03:08,970
Nice job.
53
00:03:08,970 --> 00:03:13,170
Now it's time to invite your family and friends and get your first one hundred followers.
54
00:03:13,170 --> 00:03:19,440
If you click the plus button, what's really cool is that you can send an SMS text to all of your friends
55
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,490
and family, alerting them that you've created a new Instagram account.
56
00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:29,070
You can also invite your family and friends using Facebook or any other social media is that you have
57
00:03:29,100 --> 00:03:33,750
the goal to let them know that you've come to Instagram or that you've actually opened up a new account
58
00:03:33,750 --> 00:03:37,920
after you've done this, Instagram will then recommend creating your first three posts.
59
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:43,890
Now, for your first post, I recommend posting a professional photo of yourself and introducing yourself
60
00:03:43,890 --> 00:03:44,610
in the post.
61
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,030
I would also recommend doing your first post as soon as possible.
62
00:03:48,060 --> 00:03:53,700
Now, as an added protip, you can also post an Instagram story about your new account.
63
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:59,040
This way if anyone clicks on your story, they will actually see it's you and start following you.
64
00:03:59,070 --> 00:04:03,210
We will discuss more about creating high quality engaging posts very soon.
65
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:08,990
So don't worry, the whole goal here is just to get a picture up and to create your very first post.
66
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,470
Now, once this is all set up, you'll start to notice that you should start getting more and more followers
67
00:04:13,470 --> 00:04:14,310
onto your account.
68
00:04:14,310 --> 00:04:16,890
And the whole goal is to get your first one hundred followers.
69
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,680
Now, as another bonus pro tip is to send your friend's messages, DMS and tell as many people about
70
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,940
your account as possible.
71
00:04:23,970 --> 00:04:29,640
If you do this correctly, new people and suggested people will start coming to your account and you
72
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,370
will have your first one hundred followers in no time.
73
00:04:32,370 --> 00:04:35,250
Congratulations on getting your first one hundred followers.
74
00:04:35,250 --> 00:04:36,840
I'll see you guys in the next video.
