Instagram is a good social media platform for businesses to gain exposure and a wider reach. But to get more Instagram followers is not as easy as it was in the previous years.

So how do you increase your Instagram followers for your business page without spending a dime?

In this article, I’ll be sharing 5 Tips To Increase Your Instagram Followers For Free.

So let’s get into it already…

1. Send Out a Newsletter To Your Existing Customers.

First, you can send out a newsletter to your existing customers, inviting them to follow your Instagram page.

When doing this, remember that when you want people to do something, you need to give them an incentive. For example, you can give a discount on your products for the first 100 people who follow your account.

2. Brand Your Instagram Page.

Your Instagram page layout or look is a good opportunity to make a great impression and encourage people to hit the “follow” button on your page.

Have a “clean page”. You need to pay attention to what your Instagram page looks like as a whole, from the page pattern, color, font choice on images, bio, profile picture, etc. it must be branded well to entice people to your page.

3. Follow Your Potential Customers

This is a system that has worked for a lot of Instagram pages.

Identify some of the bigger accounts that are similar to yours or are in the same industry with the same target audience you are trying to reach. Go to their most recent post and follow the people who like that post. After a while, you can unfollow all those that did not follow you back using free apps like Unfollow.

It’s that simple friends!

4. Write Engaging Captions

Writing engaging and sharable captions are very essential to your post.

Consistently writing great captions can help increase your followers and make your content more shareable which is ultimately giving you more exposure.

Whenever you are writing a caption for your page, always remember to make it witty and precise, have a call to action, use relevant emojis and hashtags.

5. Collaborate With Similar Industry Pages

You can reach out to Instagram pages who have built a following in your industry to talk about how you can collaborate to help each other. You’ll have to find pages or users with a similar target audience or complementary target market.

You can do this by regularly liking and sharing each other’s posts, they can have an “Instagram takeover” on your page and you can do the same on their page, or tag each other in your posts.

Conclusion

Instagram is no doubt a great place for brands to be, but growing a loyal and engaging audience on the platform can be a struggle.

With these steps, you’ll be able to grow your Instagram followers.
