How I Gained 50,000 Followers In 1 Month (9 Easy Steps)
30 days ago I created a new Instagram
account and today that account has over
50,000 followers I currently run over 15
faceless Instagram accounts in this
video I'm going to show you how you can
do the exact same thing for any type of
content whether you're looking to create
a new income stream build a theme page
promote a brand or simply want to grow
your followers these nine steps are
going to allow you to grow a massive
following now let's look at the
analytics of this account so as you can
see here I'll press professional
dashboard total followers
57.5 th000 right now but what's
interesting is the audience location so
if I press countries over 50% is from
the USA and as I scroll down further the
majority of the audience is above 30
years old meaning the purchasing power
of this audience is insane I'll be
sharing my techniques for posting and
how I think I've been able to achieve
this towards the end of the video so
make sure you stay and watch each step
so that you can apply and get the same
results setting up the account in the
best way possible so there is stuff I do
before I've even started posting and
here is everything now the first thing
is we need to come up with the name and
create the account so what I would
usually do is get my phone and go to
create new account at that point I need
to insert the name of my account and in
this case I came up with cron now the
reason I came up with cron is using chat
gbt which I'm about to show you but I
didn't want to have a name like
Storyteller
3694 as that's not brandable that's not
going to be easy for me to put on a
t-shirt for me to put on digital
products I want to make money with this
account so here is what I did on chat
gbt to get an epic name you can do this
to in any Niche so I'm going to share
this full transcript in the description
of this video of exact how I came up
with cron after a few attempts and
you'll see number nine right there it's
super easy check the description and
you'll be able to get it no matter the
niche you're in let's say you're in the
travel Niche you want to come with a
travel name just follow these steps
replace it with travel Etc and you'll be
able to do that so once you have your
name what you need to do is create the
account you need to add a gmail which is
aged which is at least 2 or 3 weeks old
anything which is new is going to make
your account get flagged as a bot and
Instagram will shut down or ban your
account or you won't get any views so we
need to use an aged Gmail and now our
account is set up warming up your
account is essential and this is
essentially when you help the algorithm
understand what your account is about
and give it some guidance in terms of
your audience but also it allows you to
get a constant information about your
Niche and here's how to do it once you
have your account you want to go onto
the search button and you will see the
explore page what you want to type in is
motivational storytelling do this on
mobile because you'll get much better
results rather than on desktop and what
you want to do really is go to reals and
in the real section you just want to go
through content which is high performing
and stands out and start liking and
saving that content also keep track of
the best performing accounts that you
come across put this in a spreadsheet
I'll share that in the description also
but you want to do this basically three
or four times a day for 10 minutes a
time do about 105 accounts and that's
literally the process for 2 3 days and
you will set up your account in the best
way possible and you can see here my
actual explore page if I press my
explore page is primed with everything
in my Niche and shows me exactly the
type of content or what my audience will
be seeing so this is a perfect way to do
it so my account was done warmed up
properly so I was ready to start the
next step remember remember whatever
type of account you have you need to be
following these steps if you want to
achieve results like this there's no
point skipping this going to this
section because you think this because
you think that literally I've done and
tested this on so many different
accounts and this is how I'm setting it
up time and time again to get followers
quickly so make sure you're watching and
paying attention even if your account is
already established you can warm up your
explore page right now you can do
changes you can Rebrand you can do
everything I'm teaching you in this
video do not sleep on this simple
branding branding is essential for
converting people to actual followers
when they come on your page but
something that i' done especially when I
first started was over complicating this
process spending too much time on this
and really not being efficient the
previous step of research should really
help you with this step now for Branding
I literally went onto canva and went on
to Logo put a black background put in my
name which is cron and then looked for a
font which matches my Niche or my topic
so for my topic you know motivational
stories I wanted something classic and I
found the szel font which was perfect I
simply added a glow to it made it
smaller and I was ready to go I didn't
need to pay anyone or get anything I can
do that later down the line something I
want you to remember with your logo is
always try to imagine if that logo could
be on a t-shirt you might never actually
put your logo on a t-shirt you never
know your account might blow up and you
might want to turn that into a brand so
when creating your logo whether it's a
name or an actual logo think about it
can I see that logo on a T-shirt and
then at the end of the day is the same
thing as I said with the name the bio I
literally did a combination of the high
performing accounts and made it as
simple as possible for this Niche
Simplicity works amazingly when you
create your account we are building a
business that we want to run for a long
time so it's better for us to start from
a simple point so that we can make
tweaks over time if we over complicate
it at the start then we'll probably burn
out so make sure that you simplify your
process and often that Simplicity in the
modern world works really well for
converting people the next part is when
where the magic starts happening I want
you to join my 30day challenge by
following the challenge document which
will be in the description or pin
comment on this video and applying this
video and these steps to your account I
truly believe that you are going to see
a big difference let me know in the
comments if you're going to join this
challenge let's grow and move on to the
next part content why do we play a
guessing game time and time again when
there is proven methods already that at
work the beauty of this account and this
process is that I've kept it super easy
and beginner friendly the amount of
existing viral videos in any Niche
whatever it is is absolutely gold dust
and we are so often ignoring this I
found four or five competitors which I
done in my previous stage of warming up
and I literally went through their pages
and pick the outliers and here's exactly
how I did that so let's say I'm on this
page right here what I will do is press
reals and from there I will literally
scroll down as much as I can and start
from there so basically what we're
seeing is the odd one out so when you're
looking through a page you should start
seeing basically the rough average of
how many views they get so for example
as I scroll through this I can see that
their rough average is probably around a
million so anything like these 16
million 23 million 19 Etc these are all
outliers meaning that they've performed
exceptionally well and I need to save
these because these are the gold dusts
that are going to help me grow my
account so I'm going to go on this one
and I'm going to literally press save
and that's done and you want to do this
for four to five different competitors
and stack up a whole bunch of proven
viral videos in your Niche any Niche
anytime one of the biggest mistakes that
I see us do time and time again and I do
this even on my personal one is we try
to be experimental we try hard to be
creative we try hard to think outside
the box but this isn't the best strategy
when we start an account it's better to
experiment and to implement your own
like ideas when you have an established
audience so using this first batch of
content which is already proven is going
to allow me to get past 50,000 followers
which is what is happening let's move
over to the actual content creation
process and how you use this data these
videos that you've saved in the best way
possible here is a guaranteed method to
get you results when it comes to
actually editing your rules and creating
your content this is proven this is
exactly what I do now the first thing
you can see here is I have one of my big
you know Inspirations big competitors in
this Niche iron will now what you want
to do is go to one of your competitors
and literally press reals you as we're
here we'll go through basically all of
their reals and see you know what kind
of is performing well and pick an
outlier as it I explain in this video
now as I go down and down I'll see you
know a bunch of different videos and
let's say I pick this one here with 1.2
million obviously there are some with a
bit more you know we can use all of them
essentially but let's say I pick this
one here with the lion what I'm going to
do is I'm basically going to edit to
this so I'm going to copy this link
right here then I'm going to go over to
you uh to Google and I'm going to type
in Instagram real Downloader and here
you've got a bunch of them you can try
them all out or just pick one that works
usually this one works pretty well and I
will press paste and I will download
this
real now this is where the magic happens
okay so I've downloaded the clip and
I've put my video on the timeline and
this will work on any any editing
software so basically the key here a man
in his wife is you want to basically
edit to this video so the first clip my
man and his wife went to the
zoo is around 2 seconds and it's a lion
I'm going to literally do the same but
mine will be original because I won't
use the same exact Clips but I'll use a
lion this is a proven video to have
worked well it's got over 1.2 million
views it's done really well the editing
is great and why am I going to over
complicate it when I'm starting a new
account so this is really really useful
to make sure that your videos are high
quality that there's proof that your
audience likes it and it's going to make
sure that this really works well so now
what you want to do is basically find
your line now for this we have two
different options we can either go on
somewhere like Pinterest and literally
type in Lion HD find a lion which
potentially would work well so for
example this one could work well and
what you want to do is press this press
copy link go to pinest
downloader and do the same thing so we
will just download each clip one by one
obviously this is in the storytelling
Niche which is one of the longer videos
you know they think this video is over a
minute long most most of you are going
to be shorter kind of niches where the
videos aren't as long so it will be
easier for you to edit and it might be
well it will be a lot quicker so I've
downloaded my lion and I will
essentially now add it to my clip for
the first two seconds and honestly it's
that simple and I'll just follow that
recipe so for example let's say you are
in the luxury Niche or you're a
influence or you're a business all of
that research we've done at the
beginning is not going to waste we're
going to
reconstruct all of those trending top
performing videos and apply it to our
own brand by recreating it and this is
exactly how you do it having that
inspiration right here and literally so
now I've got my line I will put it
here and as soon as that one
Cuts around here I will cut mine as well
and then the ne my next job is to find a
monkey and just do that so you can
see and obviously the beauty in this is
that you can actually upgrade Clips so
if you think that your line is better
Etc you can make the videos even better
what I would recommend is doing that for
the whole clip then what you want to do
is add your own unique filter which I'll
speak about and then I will do the auto
captions Etc and the video is basically
ready to go and I can do this while I'm
watching TV while I'm watching a show
while I'm doing anything because I don't
need to invest you know too much brain
Powers I'm literally following the steps
and it's kind of you know very useful
there is nothing like over complicating
your video creation you know at the
start really on most accounts most
topics we're still learning that market
and through this process doing this for
1 month 2 months 3 months we're going to
learn what works start building an
audience and then we can experiment
later down the line unique now one thing
that I want us to remember but of course
we are trying to build our own unique
Brands okay and I know a lot of the
steps in this video have been you know
using established stuff you know copying
High performing competitors Etc but here
is how I make sure that my account is
different to others and it's actually
much simpler than you might think this
is about using available tools to
establish a difference between your
content and the content that is
inspiring you or that you're using and
here are the things that I recommend
changing first thing is your filter so
with your filters you can actually add a
filter which is different to the current
market so for example for cron I decided
to add a black and white filter and you
will see that you know we just kept that
black and white filter made a few
changes here and there and kept it going
as I noticed that a lot of the
competitors were adding color and this
might be a way for us to be different
another variation you can make is the
font so for example I went for the font
that most of these pages are using but
you could easily pick a different font
which makes you stand out from the
competitors but be careful with your
font Choice as you don't want to pick a
font which is completely different from
that market finally you can have
different clips so for example you can
choose an outro clip or a certain clip
choice at the end of your videos which
makes your account you know unique I've
seen this and this is a great way to
kind of differentiate yourself the final
one is overlays so you can see on a lot
of videos people add fire overlays
snowflake overlays which you can get on
cap cut very easily and this could be
another simple way to make your content
different what I want you to do is only
pick one of these what happens is if we
start changing too many elements we
won't know why something might be
performing badly might be performing
amazingly and it's important for us to
make these variations one at a time and
test it that way remember we're using
the current market formula what we want
to do is make small adjustments so that
we know and can see what is working
before we go into posting and how I was
able to achieve over 50% us audience I
want you to watch this video if you're
interested in building a motivational
storytelling video just save this video
for after this video as this video is
super super underrated and literally
shows you everything from AI voices Etc
but let's move over to my exact process
posting times Etc if you want to Target
a high value time zone and get results
how I did then copy this method for me I
was trying to Target the US market but I
live in England so the time zones are
completely different so what I did was
open My Time Zone on Google and used a
time zone converter so for example I
wanted to attract the New York EST time
zone but I'm in BST so I would just
compare BST to EST and see what the
difference is so what time is 900 p.m.
in EST compared to me and from there
I'll be able to analyze things now
personally I think peak times are
basically three times a day so you've
got the morning Rush Hour you've got
lunchtime and then you have with the
peak is Peak which is the evening but of
course for some niches it might vary now
I wanted to post around 6:00 700 p.m.
EST and what I've noticed is posting 2
hours before the peak time actually
works best so for example I would post
around 4 500 p.m. EST which for me was
around 8 900 p.m. BST and I would
literally just do that every single day
but remember there is no secret hack to
getting a US audience if my content was
in Spanish or it was in Japanese and it
was about something completely different
then it wouldn't have got that level of
audience remember your content is the
main factor which will attract a certain
audience but if you also Al combine that
with the right posting times and
targeted steps then you can get good
results so make sure use time converter
and start targeting the peak times which
you want to Target analyzing so as you
can see on the account the first few
posts actually didn't do that well it
might appear now like they've got
thousands of views but at the beginning
they only had a few hundred the reason
they've gone up is because the whole
momentum of the page has contributed to
that now as as you can see we actually
experimented with a few different things
so for example we tried some thumbnails
we tried different black and white
variations and then we came up with a
formula which worked by adding a black
and white filter which was more kind of
vintage effect and we stuck with it and
it's important as I mentioned in the
previous part to make sure that you only
make small tweaks and analyze and see
how it's working but analyzing is super
super important and something that is
often underrated as we are focused on
you know why it didn't perform well
rather than how can we make the change
to my next bit of content something that
is so important for us to remember is
that we are building something long term
and if we make all the changes and
everything in one day you know try to
max out our bank in one day then there's
going to be nothing left for us to
improve and it's super important for us
to make sure we remember always this is
a long-term game you know I've got time
next week to make this change to try
this video and that's the process here
it's not complicated and it purely works
every time the more I complicate it the
worse my results the less I complicate
it the better the results analyze the
right way don't
overanalyze this account is now almost
50,000 followers as I record this video
and for me it's time to begin the next
phase which is beginning the
monetization process and I wonder should
I turn this account into a series what I
mean by that is start to create videos
where I show the full process of how I'm
going to monetize this account and turn
it into a fully fledged business so for
example the next steps for me would be
to begin this monetization process if
you'd be interested in that I'd greatly
appreciate if you let me know in the
comment section if you want to upgrade
your Instagram settings and get better
performance then make sure you watch
these videos my name is Alex and I'm all
about growth let's grow
