What is Instagram Management Agency?
Instagram Management Agency is responsible for managing and growing the Instagram account of a business or a person.
For example, You have an online store selling shoes.
If you have an Instagram account, you can reach the right audience and convert them into your customer. Right?
But finding targeted followers and growing your Instagram followers is not an easy job.
So, As an IG Management Agency, we will manage the client’s Instagram account and build targeted followers.
This business model has an untapped market. Every business nowadays heavily depends upon social media to reach its target audience.
Instagram is the talk of the town right now which has 1 billion monthly users.
There are a lot of potential customers hanging out on Instagram every day.
So, if you grow an Instagram account for your business, then you can keep on promoting your product to the followers.
Furthermore, more Instagram followers will bring in more authority to the business. Check Adobe Express for more help with this.
But the thing is:
Not everyone has time to learn how Instagram works and how to grow the account.
That’s where this business model comes into play.
Now you may be wondering:
I don’t have any Idea about Instagram growth. I think this is impossible for me.
Let me tell you something:
This is not rocket science. If you play around with Instagram for a few days, You will be ready to work on this business model.
After you get the hang of it, all you have to do is find clients and automate their accounts to grow them.
How Does It Work?
As I’ve said earlier, we will be approaching small & Medium-sized businesses.
We will offer them an Instagram Growth service at a reasonable price.
When they use our service, we will manage the activity of the account like Follow, Unfollow, Likes, Comments, Messages with the help of an Instagram Automation Tool.
One of the best Automation tools is Gram Multitool 2 ( GMT2). This tool has all the features like Auto-follow, Auto Likes, Auto Comments, Auto DM & many more.
Best part?
It’s fairly easy to use. Some of these automation tools have a lot of fancy features but you have to watch thousands of tutorials just to get the hang of it.
But GMT2 is beginner-friendly and anyone can easily figure out how it works.
The tool will automate all the activity of the account which will result in quick growth of the account.
You have to submit the report to the client weekly or monthly.
As long as you keep on growing their account, they will be paying you monthly charges.
Sounds like fun? Let’s move on to the next step.
Learn Basic Instagram Limits
Instagram is one of the best platforms to reach your target audience. So, Almost every business is present on the platform and is hungry to get more followers.
One of the best ways to get followers is to follow your target audience or like their content.
When you do so, your target audience will get a notification. Then the notification makes them curious to check so followed them.
And most of the people will follow you back.
This is one of the easiest ways to gain followers. But you can’t follow hundreds of people at once. There’s an hourly follow limit for Instagram.
You can follow a maximum of 20 – 100 people per hour and that too depends upon the age of your account.
The solution is to use a Bot. But if you use the bot too aggressively, you will get your account banned. So, you need to know the limit of Instagram in order to safely grow an account.
What is Instagram Activity Limit?
- No more than 100 follows per hour
- No more than 50 -100 Likes per hour
- 5 – 10 comments per hour
That’s the basic limit I consider while working on my client’s account. But it may not work for you.
So, the best way to figure this out is to run the experiment yourself.
Create a brand new account. Fill up the account with a profile picture, bio, and all the stuff.
Then, set up the account on the GMT2 tool and start with a very basic warm-up. You don’t want to start with aggressive settings which might lead you to ban.
Don’t forget to keep data like the age of the account, how many people you are following, how many likes and comments you are sending, and so on.
The data will help you to grow your Instagram account quickly and safely.
And that brings us to the next step.
Start Your Agency
The first and the most important thing to do is to build a website for your agency.
I will tell you why this is important:
When you are approaching a potential client, the first thing they need to make sure of is if you are legit or not.
And without an online presence, it’s very hard to build authority over what you are talking about.
You can get a domain name from NameCheap and hosting from either Hostgator or Siteground. They are really affordable and reliable.
You can set up a free or a paid agency theme which will allow you to showcase your services, testimonials, and social proofs.
Once you set up your website, it’s time to move on to the important part:
How To Get Clients for Instagram Growth Agency?
The most important part of any business is to get clients. For our growth agency, we are going to target small to medium businesses.
One of the best ways to find clients is to approach them directly. And I am going to share exactly where to find a potential client and approach them.
Facebook Groups
One of the best ways to get clients for your Instagram management agency is by using the power of Facebook groups. One of the underrated ways to get high-ticket clients is definitely Facebook groups. It’s free to join and as long as you comply with the group’s rules, you can promote your business and find tons of conversions.
However, Finding the right Facebook group for our Instagram agency is a tough part. As it takes tons of testing and hard work to start seeing conversions. But, Don’t worry I have already done the hard work of finding the right Facebook groups and I will share with you what works right away.
Shopify Groups
Shopify is an e-commerce software and using this software anyone can start a fully functional online dropshipping store in no time.
But most of the people who have a dropshipping store don’t have a huge budget to test or spend on ads, so they rely on free social media traffic.
Starting an Instagram page is an ideal choice for most Shopify store owners. But It’s tough to gain a decent number of followers on their page.
So, we are going to join Shopify groups and promote our Instagram growth services in the group. The way I advertise it by making a cool banner using Canva and then posting it on the Shopify groups.
I don’t just advertise my services but I engage with the community by answering and helping fellow members with their queries on the groups. This way I don’t look like I’m just there to spam the group with my services.
I even ask permission from the group members if I can private message them using the comments section. I usually land 3 to 4 clients per month from the Shopify groups.
Local Marketplace
There are tons of local marketplace or buy and sell groups on Facebook. Most of the members sell their used items on those groups to make some quick money.
However, the group is also crowded with business owners who have online businesses trying to sell products on the groups.
These business owner knows the power of social media as they are using the free traffic of the groups to generate sales.
However, they usually don’t have a large social media following. So, we can easily convince them to use our Instagram growth service to build their own followings.
As they already know the power of social media, they will be interested in our service. One of the easiest ways to land a client is to give them a free 7-day trial of our service.
This helps them decide whether our service is suitable for them or not.
Conclusion
So, this is how you build your own Instagram growth service empire and make income online. Roughly, It will take around $30 to $50 per month to start this business and make $1000 or more per month.
The earnings will depend upon your skills to approach a client and of course, Hardwork.
If you dedicated few hours every day to work on promoting your Instagram agency, I am sure you will land your first client and more in near future. 🙂
