I think anytime you find a greater community of people doing similar things to you, it\u2019s something you should embrace and not be afraid of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you build connections with existing Instagram influencers in your space, their followers and people with similar interests who might already follow these larger accounts will be able to find you. And if Instagram is showing their posts to people, Instagram will show your posts, too! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;The competition can be intimidating, but if other accounts are succeeding while doing what you\u2019re doing, that means there is a market. People are interested!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-let-s-talk-about-growth-on-instagram-you-went-from-0-followers-to-over-25-000-in-under-a-year-how-did-you-do-it\"><strong>Let\u2019s talk about growth on Instagram. You went from 0 followers to over 25,000 in under a year! How did you do it?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> I think it has a lot to do with time management. I had a disciplined strategy early on with how I was spending my time on Instagram. The most important thing for me is to make sure I\u2019m doing what\u2019s healthy for me and protecting my mental health on Instagram. I\u2019ve always had timers set for an hour when I\u2019m in the app, even when I was first growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to make sure that you\u2019re not draining yourself because this is the long game! It takes commitment. The more you can go into your Instagram strategy fresh-minded and feeling good, not like it\u2019s a burden, the better ideas you\u2019ll have and the more creative you\u2019re going to feel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B24rJ1UHDrA\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

I\u2019ve been doing this for a while and if I had to do all of that in a short time frame EVERY TIME I POST, I would burn out. Pressure from social media, especially on Instagram looking at other influencers, can really affect your mental health. It\u2019s important to take care of yourself!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-that-s-so-interesting-how-do-you-typically-spend-your-hour-in-the-app\"><strong>That\u2019s so interesting! How do you typically spend your hour in the app?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> I try to plan for the next week and break up tasks to make it more manageable. For example, on day one, I\u2019ll take my outfit photos for the week and maybe capture a few extras to stockpile for a rainy day. On day two, I\u2019ll work on captions. Telling a story, adding a strong CTA and planning out my hashtags (use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/instagram\/hashtag-finder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tailwind\u2019s Hashtag Finder<\/a> &#8211; it\u2019s amazing!) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On day three, I\u2019ll take some time to research other influencers, blogs or brands that are doing things I like. If I\u2019m inspired by an idea, I\u2019ll use it and tag the account it came from with a shoutout! It\u2019s actually brought a lot of big accounts and Instagram style influencers onto my little baby account to engage, which is really cool!&nbsp;On day four, I\u2019ll upload it all into Tailwind&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/instagram\/instagram-planner?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=cta&amp;utm_campaign=general&amp;utm_content=in-text-cta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram Planner<\/a> and get it queued up and ready to post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also try to make sure I\u2019m available for the first 5-10 minutes after a post goes live so that I can engage with comments in real-time. I keep comment notifications on so I see them on my phone and can respond right away. This is really good to do because you can acknowledge your followers right away and even keep that conversation going to improve your engagement!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any time you\u2019re in the app, at least some of your time should be spent engaging with your followers. It really helps if you have an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/instagram-scheduling-and-publishing?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=cta&amp;utm_campaign=general&amp;utm_content=in-text-cta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram scheduler<\/a>, you&#8217;ll save time when posting so you can focus on that engagement! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-any-other-words-of-wisdom-to-share-on-guarding-your-time-on-instagram\"><strong>Any other words of wisdom to share on guarding your time on Instagram?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> I would say, always spend more time creating and planning because that is the most important thing. When I see people start to really struggle is when creating and planning takes a dive and the time in the app responding and engaging increases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be draining to spend all your time engaging and not feel like you\u2019re seeing the success you want!<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2UyfcfnnYL\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Just take care of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-speaking-of-followers-you-have-a-really-engaged-following-on-instagram-how-did-you-build-that-loyalty\"><strong>Speaking of followers, you have a really engaged following on Instagram. How did you build that loyalty?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> I really focused on building a strong community of followers. The community aspect is really what gets me excited and what keeps me coming back to social. If you focus on building that, the numbers will come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, that beginning period when you\u2019re still growing is when to focus on building that community. It might feel silly if it\u2019s just you and a few people, but you know what, that\u2019s where everybody starts and that\u2019s the most special time to build it! After you grow a larger following, it gets harder to interact with everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building that relationship relies on steady engagement, so it\u2019s important to set a standard. If you\u2019re asking your followers to comment on your posts, set the standard that you\u2019re going to respond to them or even if you can\u2019t respond to every single one individually (because your account is larger), you\u2019re responding in some way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The community aspect is really important for engagement, but as an Instagram influencer with an actual blog, it\u2019s also really useful to get traffic to my site!<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2FSbwenaXY\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

I\u2019ll post a photo to my feed that gets very little engagement.

Sometimes it\u2019s completely unrelated to style, like a question I asked about a TV show!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a delicate balance sticking to your niche but also genuinely sharing your interests. I try to do a mix of both. And often, my audience has zero interest in something non-style related that I share, but then again sometimes they have no interest in my style content that day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve learned to be patient and also how to test topics out, and Stories are a great way to test out new content or topics before sharing them on the Feed.<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2zu9qPnboG\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

The relationship you build with your followers makes all the difference when <a href=\"https:\/\/tailwindapp.com\/blog\/5-clever-ways-to-promote-your-blog-posts-on-instagram\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">driving traffic to your blog<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to really speak to topics your followers will really want to learn more about, as well as making it as easy as possible for them to find that content!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do this through Link in Stories, and through my Link in Bio tool. I was really lucky to have been one of the first testers for <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.tailwindapp.com\/smart-bio?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=cta&amp;utm_campaign=smart-bio-launch&amp;utm_content=blog-cta-instagram-influencer-interview-in-text\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">smart.bio by Tailwind<\/a>, and it\u2019s honestly been a game-changer!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/facebook-linkedIn-smart-bio-meta-image-1024x536.png\" alt=\"Smart.bio by Tailwind - screenshot of Instagram Influencer Chloe Alysses landing page\" class=\"wp-image-17766 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/536;\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>I was using another tool before I signed up to be a beta tester for smart.bio, and I was only getting about a 40-50% click-through rate on any of my links. When I switched over, my CTR shot up to 70%, and my email newsletter signup has been off the charts, as well as visits to my affiliate posts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think that\u2019s in part because it\u2019s so unique and visually appealing &#8211; I\u2019ve never seen another link in bio tool that allows both static links and image posts links. Plus it\u2019s MY photos and MY colors &#8211; it doesn\u2019t look like anyone else&#8217;s! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-speaking-of-affiliate-posts-how-do-your-followers-feel-about-your-sponsored-posts-and-brand-collabs-as-an-instagram-influencer\">Speaking of affiliate posts, <strong>how do your followers feel about your sponsored posts and brand collabs as an Instagram influencer?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> My audience has always seen me promote affiliate links (I\u2019ve ALWAYS been upfront about that, and I often remind my followers of what\u2019s legal and what\u2019s not when disclosing affiliate links), and I think they respect that I don\u2019t try to hide anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I see a lot of people complain about sponsored posts and how \u201cinauthentic\u201d they feel. Frankly, I think the issue is that it\u2019s a female-dominated industry and women are often criticized for their financial successes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the deal: I was spending a lot of time creating content and building a blog, I wanted to be compensated for it! So monetizing was something I did early on.<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2KOt6zn68f\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Please let me know if you\u2019d like to see my media kit!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s incredibly disheartening how many brands try to convince me to work for free (and can be so rude about it!). In what other industry would a company be able to receive advertising at no cost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you\u2019re a brand, I recommend building long-term partnerships with influencers who represent your values. I have a few brands I\u2019ve worked with since the beginning, and we have a great relationship. I genuinely look forward to sharing their new releases with my followers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re an influencer or hoping to be one, remember that your time is valuable and the work you\u2019ve done creating a platform is impressive. You might not be paid much at first, but it\u2019s important to be paid for the work you do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-authenticity-and-staying-true-to-yourself-is-really-important-to-you-has-there-ever-been-a-time-when-you-ve-turned-down-an-opportunity-because-it-just-wasn-t-you\"><strong>Authenticity and staying true to yourself is really important to you.

I used to worry that it would impact my bottom line if I skipped out on these posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had to do some self-examination and come to terms with the fact that I\u2019m just not a sale shopper. I LOVE a good sale, don\u2019t get me wrong, but I also don\u2019t like to purchase something just because it\u2019s on sale. Because of that, it didn\u2019t really feel natural for me to keep up with those types of posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, I had ZERO fun finding my affiliate link, screenshotting products and creating posts about them! It felt less impactful than crafting a blog post that might feature the same information in a useful way, which is something that I love.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think a lot of other bloggers enjoy featuring their sales and affiliate links, but it just wasn\u2019t life-giving for me. So I just stopped, and I\u2019m really glad I did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-that-is-so-powerful-and-ties-perfectly-into-your-authentic-brand-you-ve-done-a-great-job-of-building-your-personal-brand-on-instagram-especially-visually-how-did-you-decide-on-your-instagram-aesthetic\"><strong>That is so powerful and ties perfectly into your authentic brand. You\u2019ve done a great job of building your personal brand on Instagram, especially visually. How did you decide on your Instagram aesthetic?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe:<\/strong> Early on, I was obsessed with finding a consistent aesthetic for my Feed. But I was also experimenting with locations and presets a lot to find something that worked for me! Throughout this process, I discovered that having an aesthetic was important, but having an Instagram aesthetic that worked for ME was even more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I needed a preset that worked in the indoor locations that I take my photos. Most presets seem to work best for outdoor shots, so I actually made my own preset. <\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B0oy4RTnZqI\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

In fact, I shared photos I wasn\u2019t sure about often and took note of how those photos were received. There was one point where I started making my photos \u201cwarmer\u201d and noticed a jump in engagement!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I try to take my photos in the same spot for every two out of three photos. Sometimes it\u2019s more, sometimes it\u2019s less, but that\u2019s my core model. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also like to plan my feed and see how my next few posts are going to look next to each other with Tailwind\u2019s 9-Grid Preview! For example, I don\u2019t like two portraits close together. Sometimes I\u2019ll do one close up and one far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/twprod.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/9-grid_1.gif\" alt=\"9-Grid Preview in Tailwind- Instagram Influencer Interview\" class=\"wp-image-17013 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Pssst&#8230; you now can plan your feed perfectly with our 9 &#8211; Grid Preview<\/em>!

Can you tell us about the reason for your rebrand?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chloe<\/strong>: When I first created Chlo &amp; Clothes, I didn\u2019t put much thought into the name and purpose. I really just wanted to play around with having an online secondhand shop! However, it eventually turned into a style account, which eventually launched my blog. As I got closer to my one year anniversary, I realized that Chlo &amp; Clothes wasn\u2019t something I could see myself maintaining long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My brand couldn\u2019t grow with me &#8212; it was static. I posted my outfits every day. That was it. I didn\u2019t have a mission or a purpose behind the work I was doing, and I was getting burned out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of the summer, I started feeling an urge to switch things up. During the warm seasons, I\u2019m not usually that into style! I want to be outside getting sweaty and enjoying the sunshine.<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bzll8oRnnSJ\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;
