    Another great vid. You are delivering huge value here, yet again. Something you didn't mention in growing over the last 100 days is your personal brand. And all the people that now know of this tremendous value you deliver. That 'Know, Like, TRUST' piece is more valuable than you think here and down the line, no matter what you decide to settle on selling. Thanks for sharing!

    Jen, I found your story fascinating. I have been following your amazing growth on Instagram with awe. However, I always knew that if anyone could grow like that, it would be you. I also found it fascinating to learn that the structure of your content follows an age-old storytelling structure, which includes setup, conflict, and resolution. It appears that as humans, we relate to this structure the best. Congratulations on your success so far, and I wish you continued success in whichever direction you decide to go in from here.

      That’s so true isn’t it! Long form, short form, presentation, whatever the format it’s all about the storytelling structure. Thanks so much for the lovely comment Dominic 😁 it’s much appreciated

    Thanks Jen! Amazing journey! About the videos, do you recommend to upload only one video per day? I’m starting a new account and I want to upload at least two per day. Thanks!,,

    • @JenBryan_
      @JenBryan_  Před 21 dnem

      I'd recommend one a day only because the burnout you feel is so strong after 45 days. Doing 2 would make it far more difficult to push through it.

    I've been trying to grow my Instagram for a while now and it's been a struggle. I understand engagement is important and you've grown significantly but the engagement on that channel is low. Would you still consider that success for your channel size?

    • @JenBryan_
      @JenBryan_  Před 2 měsíci

      It really depends on the type of monetisation that you’re chasing. Agency clients that are high tier? Maybe 1 in every 30-40k followers, which is A LOT of work compared to potentially other viable channels like networking or outreach etc. In turn for 2-3 figure sales that’s a lot easier in terms of “cost per thousand” and the time input on that. It’s an interesting dynamic between pricing and audience. The other issue is that you’ve very little control over the regions that your content shows. So for example TikTok is banned in India, so when reels go viral they often surge in viewership there, and spending power is typically (but not always) a touch lower compared to an American or European audience for example. There’s a lot of moving pieces.

    when you say the video should be 30s. is this a post or a reel?

      Reel :) I actually have since found that 16-17 seconds performed best for me during the last 3 months.
