1a) use text in video to make them unmute 1b) insert text only in IG app 1c) don't use too much text, make it easy to read 2) reels are 4:3, not 16:9 3) have ONE consistent topic-and 5 sub-topics 4) save the video! 5) make trending content that also sticks to your niche 6) make video only 1080p. Remove logos in videos. 7) don't overthink. Videos don't have to go viral. They don't have to hit. Just show up. record the audio. Then think of how to apply to niche. 8) add CTA on every video.

@ThePricipleOfParsimony 2 года назад

I can't figure out how to add text to just one uploaded photo, and not onto the 'entire' group of photos in the Reel. Like, if I add a caption, it's there for the whole reel, when I just want it on specific parts, if that makes sense? I'm not a tech-y so if anybody could solve this for me..it would be SO appreciated!

@villeneuvewoodworks Год назад

Seems like my short reels do very well. Even at 7secs, how can you add text at the end of ig videos?

@brothersdancers6512 Год назад

Hello, What is CTA? Thank you

@louisewinder7704 Год назад

Hey. Love this you are fast and clear. You say 4:5 on your video, above says 4:3. Though you might want to edit.

@lobnasalem4573 Год назад

Can u plz explain the No 2???4:3??

@Thasred 2 месяца назад

My biggest mistakes that I just learned from you is losing my video quality by recording in 4k, not removing my tiktok logos, and not putting a call to action on my videos! I’m so glad I found this video and listened to it today while I was cleaning my room 🎉🎉🎉

@cartwheel43 2 года назад

I am 56 and was a video producer in the late 80s and 90s. I also worked in advertising, PR, and marketing. Even from an "old school" perspective, YOU are very good at what you do. I am just now looking to add reels to my IG account. My niche is papercrafting. Glad I am subscribing to you.

@RanaLeeDoyal 2 года назад

I’m not growing a brand, but I’ve been toying with the idea. Loved your video - you talk at just the right speed - I’m a SAHM with two toddlers - I’m tapped out on patience lol and I got all the info quickly and painlessly. Bonus, you have a great camera presence and aren’t annoying - sorry to say, some people aren’t for everyone, but it’s true. I definitely subscribed to your channel - who knows maybe you’ll be the one to get me to take that chance! 😊

@IslandGirlTCFamMember 2 года назад

I posted my first one not too long ago. Probably not the most exciting first reel but the reach was impressive! Over 2K accounts reached over a few days time. That is a MASSIVE improvement over what I would normally get without reels. Thanks for the ideas on improvements as my next one has me talking in it.

@SamVanderWielen 2 года назад

My IG growth was slow (like, my mom and sister were my only followers for MONTHS slow), but once the momentum starts, it keeps building. Even still, there are weeks where I might lose followers, but we just have to stick with it. Best of luck to you!

@ChoneseFood 2 года назад

Super helpful! Thank you so much! Quick question? How do I crop in the 4 by 5 dimension? And for quality what should be the settings when filming with an iphone? Tysm

@HartvoorPaarden 2 года назад

I think the call to action is a difficult one, because I hate it when I'm disturbed in my reels scrolling and people want me to do something. I never do.... If I asked around, people are also bothered so they don't either. I know it isn't a big survey, but it stills stops me from doing on my reels.

@maxhackss7931 2 года назад

All you have to do is to reach out to the company name shows as my RU-vid channel name, he's one of of the IG team who helped me out, I believe he can help you.

@conscious__creators 2 года назад

@@MillieAdrian Would you mind clarifying the whole situation with hashtags - it’s quite confusing I find. I’ve started to use the Flick hashtag tool at the moment. Some RU-vidr’s say only 3 to 5 hashtags on reels in the caption while others say use up to 30 when doing a regular post. It’s confusing whether to include them in the caption or in the comment section and some say to mix up the quantity of hashtags through your normal posts. I know the IG creators page has said 3-5 tags for posts within the caption but I still see a lot of creators putting many more than that. If you’re posting an image with no hashtags and then adding your hashtags to the comments section after posting does that hurt your reach? Not sure if you have a video on this but would be great to clarify! Thanks Millie! 😊🙏🏼

@therealjohnnyb2151 2 года назад

Great video Millie. The tips were spot on with the mistakes ive either made earlier and fixed, or am still making lol. The call to action is where i'm going to look into now. I'm hoping to find a way to add a clickable link embedded within the clip to our website. Any help on this would be appreciated. Also, I can't figure why a handful of my reels have between 3-4000 views pretty fast, while others are sitting at line 11 views or so.
