TIP 1: Target your competitors' customers
- EMPOWERING MODELS VIA INSTAGRAM -
Customers that use branded hashtags and upload content and then tag the brands are incredibly important and rare.
These people are the ones that spread word of mouth about products to their friends genuinely. It’s these customers that actually drive a brands genuine organic viral growth.
We term these customers as “superfans”, and for customers to actually share your products on social by using branded hashtags or tagging your products in their own personal posts is a big deal. These types of customers don’t come by often.
So how does this help you?
You can increase your own brands organic viral growth by targeting the superfans of your competitors, helping you reach these grassroots viral campaigners much faster, and take them for yourself.
Here’s a working example: Take Fashion Nova, a popular clothing brand on Instagram. By going on their profile and tapping on their tagged images you can immediately see all of these superfans and free brand ambassadors. Here you have immediate, public access to your competitors most loyal customer base. From their you reach out to these competitor customers however you want, offering discounts or just kindling a relationship with some unique engagement. With Instagram now boasting over 1 billion monthly active users, it’s taking up a larger and larger percent for most brands marketing budgets. Thanks to the unique nature of the platform and creative strategies like these, you can outsmart and out hustle your competitors to use that budget more efficiently.

TIP 3: Hijack Your Competitors Ads
- EMPOWERING MODELS VIA INSTAGRAM -
Your competitors spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on Instagram ads. On a single ad they might have over 50,000 likes and 500 comments. These are people those companies spent money to reach, and given they are your competitors those people will likely buy your products and services too.
So, we hijack their ads for you. How does this help you exactly? It’s pretty simple, what we do is first visit all our clients competitors websites. Doing this gets us caught up in their ad funnels and cookies. Then, we head back to Instagram and refresh the feed to start seeing your competitors ads. Once you see the ad you can then target and reach out to everyone that liked, commented and tagged their friends on it. We do things like personalized interactions on scale, starting from small things like creating a customer relationships by watching their Story content, to liking a few posts and leaving unique, personalized comments, DM’s and more.
The idea is that you let your competitors spend their money finding a relevant audience. Then, once that audience starts reacting to their ads and posts, you target them, saving you from spending that money to find them to begin with. Effectively, you are hijacking your competitors ads to save money finding potential customers. We can also target your own ads, providing a completely new way to remarket your customers in a 1:1 way.
Save your money by taking over your competitors ads.

TIP 5: Co-live with others
- EMPOWERING MODELS VIA INSTAGRAM -
A (almost) Guaranteed Way To Go Viral
By collaborating with other brands and influencers and going 'live' with each other on Instagram (co-livestreams) you can reach 'Top Lives'. This is how you can go viral by Instagram livestreaming.
How does it work? When you co-live with others they bring their audiences. Do this back-to-back to gain traction in your stream and Instagram will feature you on 'Top Lives' on the Explore page.
Viral Secret: If you coordinate these co-livestreams back-to-back with other brands or influencers, each time another they join your live stream they bring their audience. Once they leave the stream, this audience will still stay within your live stream. If you keep repeating this with others back-to-back you will gain enough lives stream viewers from their combined following joining to reach the 'Top Livestreams' on Instagram to be featured on the 'Explore' page. This then drives a viral amount of new potential followers to your live stream, as people will be finding you via the 'Explore' page. You can find other brands and influences who are interested in this livestream collaboration with our Connect Collab app, download it for free here.
