Last year in August I started growing an IG theme page in the travel niche about a popular city in Europe. After my posts success in an Instagram subreddit 2 weeks ago I post it here to help more people out with valuable infos.
After 10 months in May I hit 100k followers and now its at 135k. With the same strategy I launched a new accounts in April for another city and its just hit 50k this week. Also one for a client thats at 18k at the moment.
I use freebie travel guides to get leads. With all the 3 pages I get around 100 organic leads daily. Plus, after they optin for the free guide I upsell them with paid services and give them more value through emails where I share affiliate links.
Recently began collaborating with restaurants, activities and travel apps in the cities to build them a social presence for a monthly retainer fee and working on a travel pass product idea.
Feel free to ask any questions you might have! I want to be as valuable as possible 🙂

Congrats – what’s your insta strategy?
Was thinking of getting an account like this started. What is you’re growth strategy. Also you make the free travel guides and upsell them with more in depth paid ones?
Do you live in this city? If not, what’s your source of information for these best restaurants etc. type posts?
That’s impressive growth! How did you initially gain traction and what strategies worked best for you in the early stages? Also, how do you manage collaborations and ensure consistent engagement across multiple accounts?
Why would any human being want followers?
Do you pay for ads/promoting posts? If so, how much?
What’s your road from 0 to the hardest 1k followers?
How much time does it cost you to make the content for 1 day? And how’s that increasing when it gets harder and harder to share new insights. Or do you reuse content?
do you have any advice for someone trying to grow a brand for drop shipping?
What are your conversion rates like to paid promotions? What’s your cash flow like?
How do you think about shoutouts?
Or you don’t do it at all?
Most of my creators love it (and they leverage with ManyChat as well) so I would love your perspective.
