In this episode of The Dietitian Success Podcast, we’re diving into one of the most frequently asked questions from our DSC business members: "How do I grow my Instagram following?" With the way social media has evolved, follower count doesn’t equate to success in the way many people think. So today, I’m breaking down why having more followers doesn’t necessarily lead to more revenue or business growth, and sharing insights from our own experiments with social media that prove it!
Join me as I walk through:
How Instagram's algorithm has shifted and why follower count is no longer the most important metric.Why a smaller, engaged audience can be just as valuable—if not more—than a large following.Real-world examples from our business that show followers don’t always drive sales.How to use social media strategically without feeling pressured to post constantly.Tips on maximizing visibility, engagement, and shares to build deeper connections with your audience.

If you relate to the following, this episode is for you:
You’ve made at least $5K in business revenue in the last year. You’ve started to build an audience (it doesn’t have to be a big audience), but you are regularly creating content, either social media, email marketing or blog content, but consistency has been a bit of a struggle. You’re really unsure of where you should be focusing your time and effort when it comes to marketing in order to see the best results. You’re worried about starting with blogging or podcasting and getting burnt out and not being able to stay consistent with it. Perhaps you’ve started an email list but you don’t really know what to send on a regular basis or how to sell to your email list, and you’re really worried about people getting annoyed and unsubscribing.You’ve been working with a lot of clients on a one-off basis and you’re wondering what the next best step is to create a more strategic offer to work with clients longer-term and generate more business revenue. You’re looking for an expert to audit your business and identify gaps and opportunities to level up your online presence and bring in more customer leads. You want a clear and strategic marketing plan that is aligned with what you actually ‘want’ to do (ie. if Instagram makes you feel yucky, it’s not part of the plan!).You have a big vision for your business that makes you feel super excited but you’re not totally clear on how to get there, and you're feeling a lot of imposter syndrome trying to get to the next level.
