Are you talking to me? 

Yes! Okay, now that I have your attention, time to hit you with some facts about your favourite social media platform!

Did you know❓

1️⃣ Instagram is ten years old this year. What started out as a photo sharing site has grown into an amazing platform for businesses to showcase what they have and create client relationships. 

2️⃣How many times does the like button get hit? On average about 4.2 billion times a day, that's a lot of likes!! ♥️…

3️⃣Over 130 million users use the app for shopping! And one third of users have made purchases directly on the platform. Good news for small businesses everywhere! 

4️⃣ Engagement rates on Instagram are 10 times higher than other platforms! Not only that but video content creates 38% more engagement than images. 

5️⃣ Images with predominantly blue content get  24% more likes than images with predominantly red content.💙

Do you see a Leader or Followers?

Or perhaps you see a team training together with a shared goal... 

Maybe you see competition..

Or are you wondering what or who is motivating them to push forward? 

“A true leader influences others to be their best. Leadership is about social influence, not positional power.” Travis Bradberry

So it doesn’t matter what position you are in, you can be any of the above. 

Success means different things to different businesses. Every business needs leaders, followers, a team and of course there will always be competition, which is healthy. 😉

It all depends on your perspective and attitude.

Keep going until you reach your goal! 🏅
