PODCAST EPISODE SYNOPSIS

In this episode, I’m breaking down the exact Instagram metrics I track at the 30-day mark so I can stop throwing content at the wall and start making decisions that actually lead to comments, follows, and sales. I’m sharing what I look at, why it matters, and how I use that data to create more of what’s already working – without adding more to my plate.
