I wish when I first started on social media, someone had a guide like this for artists as to how much or little they can do to maintain their social media page. In this video, I'm gonna break it down from easy, medium, and hard. Again, pick and choose posting guides for when you feel like they're suitable for the season of life you're in and not just to post to post.

I NEEDED THIS SO BAD, the timing is perfect- I really hate the new instagram updates, I never really cared about reels but now it's the only way to grow and it's such a chore. I used to get 100 likes per post and new followers every post as long as I used good tags. Now I still do that and I barely get 10-20 likes and it's only from existing followers. It's ridiculous.

Dang, even the "easy" mode is too much for me at this point in my life. Studio work, freelance on the side, personal graphic novel I'm building, and a baby. Put it all together and I just don't know if this sort of thing is even feasible lol.

But maybe once I started kicking up the novel into production I can share progress on it semi-frequently. Or talk over timelapses of a page's process briefly with no editing. Things to think about.

Thanks for sharing

Dude! Thanks so much for these tips, for real. I made a business plan last year to become a full time artist finally in a few years. And the first year of the plan is to grow on social media. So I’ve been posting reels everyday to til took and insta and putting shorts on my YouTube.. but I’m realizing that a reel on instagram still doesn’t do much. I think I’ll shorten it to twice a week there and leave the time to focus on YouTube more. I have a full time job outside this so I really am trying to optimize my time!!! And your videos lately have been so helpful. Thanks so much for making these helpful art business videos!!!!

I'm on easy mode but I dabble back and forth with medium and hard but another good advice 💯💯💯 thanks😌😌😌

[YetiZeroFPS]

You are such an angel for making this video, thank you!!

[grildrago]

seeing this I wholeheartedly believe it will works. because I already died at "easy mode"

[ameszingartist]

This is really great advice, thank you!! And I like that you set up different tiers

[PriscillaCash]

Oh I love this breakdown! Thank you! I think I’m attempting to do the medium schedule, but not pulling my weight on Instagram yet. Thanks for sharing! 😊

[LeonieYue]

This is amazing and reassuring on being mindful and strategic with how much you're able/willing to invest into social media; thank you so much!

[fuzzydragons]

everything changes so fast its hard to know when and what to post, no wonder i have more grey hair😝

[saragrekey]

Thank you for making such easy to follow strategies! I’m an art student so I haven’t been too active on SM but once finals are over I’ll be doing the medium strategy (and trying the hard one for as long as I can handle it 😅)

[xlatrinak]

Def gonna put this into practice 😭 with the tiktok ban incoming + wanting a way to stay relevant, so to speak, especially as I can be inconsistent with YT, this video came at the perfect time 🥹

[RisingJay]

Neat stuff! Personally shooting for medium level this year, but altering that YouTube recommendation bc animation lol 👌

[ofraar]

I enjoy your professional content so much! waiting for more😄

[katemurphy]

This is so helpful!! I’ve been struggling to grow on Instagram and all your advice is so necessary for growth.

Cant we just skip the Zuck app and focus on YouTube instead? I just do not care about social media. I dont want to play Zucks game for fame yo.

[ChantelleArts]

This is so helpful, thank you for sharing ☺☺

[DiamondFlame]

Thank you for the tips! I am not even an artist! Lol

[caveirainvocada]

Hey I think this is a great video, but I'm still unsure about something. As an aspiring professional artist, do you want easy or medium if you want do increase discoverability while not eanting to make content creation your main thing?

[delshadayin]

i DONT know, HARD isnt hard enough. i will try, but in my case i dont know what the website is for and the patreon. I that is almost usseless if you dont have 100 000 followers
