What’s your Instagram account?
That’s the first question a young gentleman who owns a vinyl wrapping and tinting business in Las Vegas asked me on the phone, yesterday.
He called us in regards to getting a website built for his business. He had already built himself a SquareSpace website, but was noticing that nobody was really finding it online and he wasn’t getting any calls or interest in his business. That’s a common problem that people who use SquareSpace, GoDaddy Website Builder or Wix have. Sure you can do it yourself, but if nobody ever finds the website, what’s the point?
I told him that what we really need to do is rebuild it in WordPress for it to get the proper love from the search engines and for people to find it and use it. I explained that we can build a really nice WordPress website that has modern design and has everything that he possibly needs to run his business off of it.
He liked that, but asked me what our Instagram account was, and wanted to know what we had on there. I gave him the link which is instagram.com/skypnt and he checked it out and said “Oh wow, you have 1,500 followers.” He liked the account and this was enough proof for him to say OK, I’m gonna hire you guys, let’s get started right now.
Now, 1,500 followers might not seem like a lot, but it was enough to convince this young gentleman that he wanted to do business with us. So if your Instagram account has not been established, or is it a very low amount of activity, meaning low followers and low posts, this is your warning that the next generation of young people are coming!
The youth of today are going to be doing business and they’re going to want to know what your Instagram and what your TikTok is and they wanna know whether you’re active and whether people follow you there. The only way to get followers is to be on the platform actively posting consistently every single day and following other accounts that are in your local area.
When you follow other accounts, there’s a chance that they will follow you back. This is how you actively work and build your Instagram or your social media profiles. I think it’s so important these days, because as the next generation takes hold, they will no longer be traditionally calling you on the phone or doing things like that they’re gonna wanna look up your socials and your website they’re gonna see how you’re established with your reviews and that’s how they’re gonna decide whether to do business with you or not.
It’s so crucial these days to be set up properly online. If you need help setting up your website or your social media, definitely contact us! That’s what we specialize in here at SkyPoint Studios and we can help your business excel in 2024 and beyond.
