My Instagram Strategy for 2025 EXPOSED

Video Description

Let’s plan your Instagram growth strategy for 2025! Today I’m exposing my Instagram strategy for the new year, to show you the reasoning behind what and how I post to grow and make a living as a full-time content creator. 2024 was a big year for me on Instagram in terms of actually monetizing my content. Let me know in the comments if you’d like to see a more in depth video about brand deals, and my approach and strategy for getting them. Also - make sure you stick around to the end of the video to see my full content calendar for January, and my explanation for the different growth “modes” I have with my strategy - because it’s just not realistic to post consistently ALL the time. We need to take breaks. And I’ve included that in my 2025 strategy. So let’s get into it! 📸 Follow me on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/katiesteckly 🧵 My thread about single frame Instagram stories: https://www.threads.net/@katiesteckly/post/DDZgHgYxU2m?xmt=AQGzFsZH7CWQi5Bao97u7UO5LoP8ZQMS_xCriF97hTQ4qw 🎬 Get my team of editors to edit your YouTube videos! 👉🏻 https://www.creatorlymedia.com 🚐 Watch my van life / travel channel https://www.youtube.com/@KatieandDan 📕 TABLE OF CONTENTS 📕 00:00 the ultimate guide to Instagram growth in 2025 00:24 welcome back to my Instagram strategy exposed! 00:52 this year my Instagram income REALLY increased 01:52 The State of Instagram in 2025 (features + algorithm updates) 04:40 what does this mean for our Instagram strategy? 05:01 IN / OUT on Instagram in 2025 07:15 let’s break down the three parts of a successful growth strategy on Instagram 07:30 🎞️ Instagram Reels Growth Strategy 11:14 how often to post Reels to grow 11:30 🗒️ Carousels Strategy for Instagram 13:35 how often you should post carousels 14:00 📱Instagram Story Strategy for 2025 17:00 how often you should post stories on Instagram 17:20 my Instagram content calendar for January! 17:36 three different modes of Instagram strategy 19:24 exposing my Instagram content calendar for January (comeback mode) 20:00 my IDEAL maintenance content calendar for 2025 *screen shot this* 21:33 you CAN grow a community on Instagram 23:10 it’s all about balance 🫶🏻 // SOME OF MY FAVES: *some of these are affiliate links, which means if you make a purchase on the site after clicking these links, I could earn a commission. thanks for supporting the channel! 🎧 where I get music for my videos: www.katiesteckly.com/artlist and https://share.epidemicsound.com/6x4f73 Main camera: https://geni.us/kszve1 Lens: https://geni.us/ks1625 Vlog camera: https://geni.us/kszve10ii Microphone: https://geni.us/djimicmini Tripod: https://geni.us/ksulanzi See all my gear here: https://katiesteckly.com/gear // ABOUT ME Hey, I'm Katie!
