101 We Did a Month of Posting 4 Times a Day... Here’s What Happened

Over the past month, I decided to run a little experiment in my business… and honestly, it was a bit of a wild one.I set myself a challenge to post four times a day on Instagram, every weekday, while testing some of the newest growth strategies (including trial reels). The goal? More visibility, more followers, and real data on what actually works right now.But here’s the truth… what I expected to happen and what actually happened were two very different things. So in this episode, I’m breaking it all down for you—what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d genuinely recommend if you want to grow your audience without burning out or wasting hours on content that goes nowhere.📝 What We Cover in This EpisodeWhat happened when I posted 4 times a day on Instagram for a month A behind-the-scenes look at trial reels (and whether they’re worth your time) Why more content doesn’t automatically mean more followers The biggest mistake people make when chasing Instagram growth A simple way to test content without doubling your workload How to use keywords to attract the right audience (not just more views) What “visibility content” actually means (and how to use it properly) Why polarising content can dramatically increase reach and engagement The power of content series to build trust and consistency What to focus on instead of chasing every new social media trend 💡 Key TakeawayIf you’re wondering how to grow on Instagram as a dietitian, this episode is your reminder that it’s not about doing more… it’s about being more intentional.Because the goal isn’t just more views—it’s getting seen by the right people who actually want to work with you.🔗 Links & ResourcesSocial Media Made Simple https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/social-media-made-simple DM me “SMMS” on Instagram if you want to chat about whether the course is right for you ✨ Gentle Next StepIf you’re feeling a bit stuck with what to post, or like you’re putting content out there and hearing crickets… you’re not the only one.This is exactly why I created Social Media Made Simple—to help you build a strategy that actually works for you (and your life), not one that has you glued to your phone 24/7.I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery
