Content to Attract Your Ideal Client on Instagram

Content to Attract Your Ideal Client on Instagram

There’s a platform gaining major market share as the preferred local search engine among people aged 18-34…

It’s Instagram. (Google, we still love you!!)

Here’s why that’s good news: You can use Instagram to attract, build trust, and do business with your ideal client.

Here’s how to do it:

Identify & understand your ideal client

First, we’ll need to identify WHO you're trying to attract (your ideal client). Then, I really want you to go DEEP in understanding what this person is all about.

Let's say your ideal client is...A Tampa resident, currently renting, 27-33 years old, saving for their first home, active and outdoorsy, dog owner.

Their interests are...Biking, fitness, music, casual & healthy restaurants and happy hours.

They could be found around town...At dog parks, fitness studios, nature trails, casual eateries, and music venues.

Identify relevant content pillars

Next, let's identify the content pillars (aka overarching themes) that your ideal client would find relevant. For this ideal client, I would use:

  • Local info - to attract your ideal client to your Instagram page

  • First time buyer info - to establish yourself as knowledgable resource for your ideal client

  • Personal brand builders - to build trust and relatability with your ideal client

Brainstorm keyword-rich topic ideas

Now for the fun part, let's come up with topic ideas for each content pillar that *really* speak the language of your ideal client using keywords they might be searching on Instagram.  (P.S. this is where Coffee & Contacts templates really come in handy!)

Local info topic ideas:

  • The best views for a summer sunset in Tampa

  • Get lost with me on a Saturday afternoon in Tampa

  • Calculate your magic number for buying a home

  • The playbook that saved my first-time buyers' sanity

  • My buyers earned money while saving for a home (the beauty of a high yield savings account)

  • Tampanians are flocking to these new construction communities
