In this article, I want to discuss the use of reels: How I use reels to grow my brand on Instagram. About 2 years ago, I received an article from a former colleague on using reels, for Instagram growth. I read and even shared the article. However, I never myself followed the guide of the article.

Fast forward to January 2022, I was looking to spice up my Instagram in a big way. Taking notes from Tik Tok, I decided to flood my Instagram page with reels. On March 5, 2022, I started out very ambitious; 1-3 reels a day. Could I do it? I was very optimistic that I would stick to it and dish out great content for 30 day straight.

Prior to March 5th, I was on a long break off Instagram for a while so I wasn’t sure what would work and what wouldn’t. I went through my phone and looked at all my videos. I have nearly 3,000 videos in my gallery; 2,991 videos to be exact. That’s a lot of content just sitting in my phone, lying dormant. waiting for a revival.

I wanted to use an app called Coschedule to plan out all my posts but I took the lazy way out. I posted 2-3 times day, manually. I read the metrics on when my followers were most active and posted during those times. The thought of sorting through my videos and choosing was a daunting task to me. I felt that going through my videos daily would help me stick to my goals better.

Here are the stats from the first 30 days: From March 5, 2022 to April 4, 2022, I posted 118 reels;

  •  +2,447% more accounts reached compared to February 3- march 4, 2022
  • 15.8k account were reached
  • $525 sales
  • 2911 highest number of viewed video
  • $220.55 in bonuses for reels earned from Instagram
  • 0% loss/gain in followers- my followers’ count is steady

Yes, my account became eligible for bonus payout from Instagram. Up to $1200 can be earn in a 30-day period

I started not knowing what to post to adjusting my posts to fit my viewers. I am still learning and I invite you to see my growth first hand. If you want to keep up with my progress, here is my Instagram page @mariestuartnoel to follow me. I would love to give you a monthly update on my progress with reels.
