are you losing followers my friends are you pretty sad about you know the way things are going and are you actually wondering why you might be losing those followers welcome back people my name is Dominic in case you didn't know I'm I teach social media stuff I teach Instagram marketing I teach personal branding right so I'm we're here to talk about why you might be losing followers sometimes people tell me I did good up until a certain point but then either it just became kind of stagnant or you know became kind of a slow pinching
down curve and you know that's that's not the thing that you want to have you know no one likes to lose followers so here here are my top I don't even know how many tips I have for you no hints for you to think about why you might be losing your followers which leads me to the number one thing here which is please don't attach your ego to your Instagram followers so lots of people really connect their ego connect their whole you know I don't even know their whole life to their Instagram followers you know
even YouTube fathers and all that it's okay I put till a certain point especially if it drives you to you know if it motivates you to more and more and more and you know it but still don't do it if you start noticing a trend downwards trend you know don't starters start freaking out don't lose the [ __ ] you know could be you know regular things which is another thing it could just happen you know sometimes it's just like it's just like life you know you know sometimes this goes off sometimes it goes down
and I you know I can't always be like a steady and soul well you want people if it's just steady instant you know a steady hill climb to the top it's actually pretty boring huh you know you're like you send up in the morning like okay I gained a hundred followers today I gave 100 followers tomorrow I gained 100 rollers the day after that you know it's not interesting anymore right what you want at least if you're really in for the whole game whatever the game might be is you wanna have those up swings and
then you wanna crap get crushed down you want to get thrown to the ground you know your ego [ __ ] you know steer it in the ego and all like man people are hating me people don't you know people have critique and whatever I do but then you know after a doubt comes on up again I hope you get my you know sometimes it's actually pretty weird and that you know thought patterns but you know that's actually what drives me personally that's actually what [ __ ] maybe Drive you as well don't try to
go forget anything go for the up-and-down thing it will be much more fun and probably much more worth it in the end right so the first thing was a little bit of motivational fluff but you know there any cool stuff you know which it's not that bad list though now let's get into a little bit more practical things one of the things that I notice you know lots of you know clients with us losing followers we had the clients lose about 6,000 followers overnight well mmm not as as it was planned probably but know what
he did was you know just to be to post some polarizing stuff don't get me wrong here I am the last person to tell you don't be polarizing you know you know I'm the first actually the first person to tell you right pull the rights to [ __ ] out of them people you know make ten percent love you and make 90 percent of them hate you this being said there's certain topics in the society and stuff like that that people take pretty seriously that people don't really like to you know see different opinions that
people don't really like to have you know a thoughtful discussion for example religion is one of those things one guy says okay religion a is the religion of peace the other guy says okay and the supposed of religion of peace you know just blew up my I don't know to see and I don't know where usually with the topics like this there's small not much room for discussion it's no polarizing like a lot that way you know you might offend people pretty easily and you might in turn you know lose people from that we don't
want to polarize too much stay out of that one other thing might be politics for example you know these things really polarize a lot and you know I personally and I'll tell you how it is I'd like to stay away from these topics just because no I'm businessman I'm an entertainer from some sometimes you know I just wanted I don't I want to dip my my voice in there you know there's people that do that I might have my own opinion about that but you know from my social media presence from my you know from
from my public life I just want that to be you know away from that one other thing that I notice no pretty a lot you have one cool picture you have two cool pictures you hit the explore page lots of people come and then you know their their expectations just you know are not mad you don't you just don't meet their expectations for example by having you know lower quality pictures lower quality content and you know you had like for example this one cool crazy-ass content that everybody loved and now you just can't keep up
with that anymore what you can do is actually not much other than you know just keep trying putting out lots and lots of more content you're trying to get on par with that and actually you know switch off your head sometimes in a you know don't always try to focus on replicating it just that you know go with the flow of course people are gonna abandon you but if you didn't know social media and all the game is a long-term game and leading from that and actually sometimes people lose interest over time in certain topics
so for example if you have a yo car channel and people follow you just because you have cool cars and they want to know do you love to see your lifestyle or they love to see those cool supercars in there you know overtime to gradually lose you know interest in cars and then you're like okay I know I like this but you know it just doesn't do anything for me anymore because their interest ifs and you know that's just something that you have no control over that's what destiny is okay one other thing that you
know some of you influencers might be facing you're just a sellout man yeah you know I hate to break it people if you overdo it people will lose you know your interest over time I know some people and you know they have fairly large followings and you know they have like every day to have an app post every day to have a post race okay I love this is an ad this is that buy this buy that you know people just don't like that you know and that's actually one thing that I actually think should
be different with influencer marketing with influencer posts an influencer should be marketable not because he says okay this is the thing buy that but because he loves this product know he uses that and naturally people ask him why be it being a natural thing and not this you know at like you see on television where people are like buy this and why that you know people shouldn't you know have to think themselves okay man whatever you know this backpack that he uses is a pretty cool backpack I want to have that you know it's you
know incidentally there might be a link it down there somewhere and not these forced thinks right and the last thing that I wanted to address here is you know and it's kind of ties together with the first thing that I tell you about is it's okay to lose you know sometimes it's okay to lose and not only because you know it's more interesting that way in this and up and now thing than the grind but there is this other thing called thinking and you know when things are going great you use usually early Elyse your
mind usually doesn't you know get you off your path you know you're like okay I'm growing pretty steadily I'm growing pretty well why should I change things but you want to start losing a bunch you know once you start a downward trend actually your mind this for at least that's what it was like with me your mind tends to ask yourself man what am I doing wrong and this is actually the thing that you should actively be doing think about what are you doing wrong or what things could you do better for people who be
interested in a game also you know by doing that by putting a little bit more thought again into your you know content especially trying out different things it will put you head of the curve again it will put you ahead of all the competition just thinking like that there for example you know this car channel you'll have a car channel there's 10 million car channels around you know and nine million will hit the peak and then it will go down again and you of course we see will be the same but then you'll be one
of the only ones that actually think about try to innovate things you know try to do things differently you know it might go wrong it might not go wrong but you know you never know until you try and this might put you ahead of the curve by you switching up things by you actually and putting some thought into your content and stuff like that it might get up again and you never know but social media it could be like you know really fast curve so this minute my name is Dominic I usually I teach social
media stuff all of that anyway like I said and do you want to have some other kind of content for me maybe a little bit more personal brand maybe live bit more into the business kind of site or in the content you know kind of site you never know comment down below hit the subscribe button like my video and you'll follow me on Instagram anyway I just went in for today I'll see you probably tomorrow probably the day after we're having a party in the office have a lot of work to you besides have lar
