Is Instagram Really The Problem? Or Is It How We Use It?

Cheers to Your Prosperity

Did you know Instagram as well as other forms of social media impacts and influences your finances?

Early 2022, and especially after another algorithm change, my frustration with Instagram was high. It is a tool that intended to support and enhance my business, yet, I continued to experience the opposite. In fact, it felt like Instagram was taking so much more than it was giving, leading me to question whether it is worth it  to continue being on that platform. That question of worth also include the impact and influence of Instagram on my finances. Should my efforts be directed elsewhere?

I realized many of you have also been questioning where you stand with Instagram as well as the other socials. Which led me to ask this question:

Is it Instagram? Or is it the way we use it?

In this episode I explore that question and the way we use Instagram (and other socials) which impact and influence our finances. 

Other topics include:

  • Sharing, passionately, what I stand for and how the pressures of the platform interferes with that.
  • How my colleagues navigate and succumb to the pressures to be relevant on social media.
  • I explain the difference between an influencer and a business owner - I needed to remind myself to stay in my lane
  • I then talk about why I like Instagram.

Here’s a twist: Did you know Instagram is responding to how WE use the platform?

  • I discuss how we, as users, have the power to influence Instagram
  • Finally, I share what I, as a business owner will navigate Instagram and other forms of social media, going forward.
