Using Instagram + YouTube to Get More Leads

Why should you use Instagram & YouTube to Market your Business?

It’s no secret that VIDEO is the best way to market your business on social media.

But there are soooo many conflicting opinions out there around what’s the best way to approach video for your biz… 

 

Maybe you’ve heard some of them?

  • GURU OPINION 1: Post videos every day (or multiple times a day!)…
  • GURU OPINION 2: Don’t forget about TikTok! And ALLLLL the other social channels…
  • GURU OPINION 3: You have to be the typical “influencer” to gain any traction with video…

 

Nah. I’m not buying it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Are you?

Using Instagram to market your business.

When you post videos on INSTAGRAM…

… You’re building your credibility checkpoint – aka where everyone is gonna check you out to make sure you’re legit.

… You can show your personality with fun and entertaining videos, and you can sell without being salesy.

… You’ll create traction fastest, and get more immediate sales growth than on other platforms.

FUN FACT: 1.22 billion people use Instagram each month - and 83% of consumers claim they use Instagram to discover new products or services.

Instagram is amazing for relationship building. 

 

Bottom line – if you want to be able to post & attract leads immediately, Instagram is your jam.

 

But you shouldn’t put all your eggs in one basket with Instagram… I promise, you’ll regret it later. 

 

*** My Instagram was DELETED back in 2020. And the 2500 followers I had worked SO HARD to attract… were gone. POOF. ***

 

>>> Moral of the story? You need a multi-platform strategy.

Using YouTube to Market your Business

When you post videos on YOUTUBE…

… You’re building your expert profile.

… You’re creating searchable content that will bring in leads for months or even years.

… You’re helping people find your content quickly + driving engagement with just a few tricks.

FUN FACT: YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world with over 2 billion monthly logged-in users.

 

And get this 68% of YouTube users watched YouTube to help make a purchase decision.

Talk about visibility that keeps on comin’. (And bringing in leads on AUTOPILOT!)

*** When my son started at his brand new daycare – his teacher literally looked at me funny and said, “Hey, I’ve seen your YouTube videos.” 

YouTube is the VISIBILITY KING. (Or queen 👑)

But friend – just like you shouldn’t put all your eggs into the Instagram basket – the same applies to YouTube.

Because in the beginning, posting YouTube videos might not be fast enough to gain the traction you need to make a real difference in your business. 

The real magic happens WHEN INSTAGRAM + YOUTUBE ARE USED TOGETHER.

When you use YouTube for your long-game, long-term growth strategy that attracts leads on repeat.

And you use Instagram to get more immediate results and sales growth.
