Tired of creating Instagram content that feels like a full-time job with zero ROI? Let’s fix that.
In this episode, I’m joined by Corey Walker, co-author of Instagram for Dummies and Instagram for Business for Dummies - and she’s here to break down exactly what works right now on Instagram (and what you can stop wasting time on).
Whether you’re frustrated by reels, overwhelmed by algorithm shifts, or stuck in the “I should be doing more” spiral, Corey’s no-fluff advice will help you simplify, strategize, and actually see results - without dancing, pointing, or trying to reinvent the wheel every week.
Inside this conversation, you’ll learn:
- How to use Instagram as a full funnel: from visibility to connection to conversion
- The role of Reels, feed posts, Stories, and Lives (and how to stop overthinking each one)
- What carousels and drip campaigns have in common - and why they convert
- Why showing your face on camera (even awkwardly) beats perfect production every time
- The easiest way to batch content using questions you already get asked all the time
This is your permission to stop chasing trends and start using Instagram in a way that supports your business goals and your sanity.
