Instagram up 556% and built TikTok to 300 followers in 10 days

Before I joined the Social Media Mastery class, I knew I needed a following before my store even opened its doors — but I had no real plan to get there. I had an idea in my head (3,000 followers, ideally before opening) but no strategy, no consistency, and honestly, no confidence to put myself out there. Social media felt like the scary thing I kept putting off. This program gave me what I actually needed: not just tactics, but support, a push, and accountability. It was the reason I finally did the scary thing instead of just thinking about it. I learned how to actually work with trends instead of guessing, and I started showing up consistently instead of sporadically. Since then, my Instagram is up 556%, and I started a TikTok from scratch that's already past 300 followers in just 10 days. I'm not there yet, and I know I still have work to do and room to get better — but I'm tracking toward my goal of 3,000 followers before my store opens, and for the first time, it actually feels within reach. The strategy mattered, but the confidence this program gave me was invaluable. It didn't just teach me social media — it gave me the push to actually use it.
