Just Instagram or any social platform? How niche can I make my searches?
I have a very narrow target market that hangs out on Twitter and LinkedIn (Tech Conference Speakers). I have done quite a bit to get lists of these people, but don't really have any way to target "influencers".
Hey Karl!
Our platform aggregates data from both Instagram and Youtube. I don't think our tool would be a good fit for your product type.
If it's of any interest to you, here is how I would go at growing your reach in your niche:
I would find conference speakers using LinkedIn Sales Navigator (use a Boolean search such as ("Conference speaker" OR "keynote speaker") and contact them using connection requests + cold email (you can find their emails using Hunter.io, Find That Lead, or any other tool for that matter). Please note that you will have to use a tool such as LinkedIn helper to extract your list before you can search for their emails.
I would then create a core content piece that resonates with their key problem: getting speaking gigs. It could be something like: How to Find Speaking Engagements. This piece of content is your door opener. It creates a connection with these people, without hard selling them.
As of Twitter, I have not explored the platform too much.
Hope this can be of help to you!
BTW, I love your product idea Karl!
You basically just outlined my current strategy, haha. I've slowed down on the cold outreach until my Pro product comes out later this summer, but am getting more organic signups from Twitter/SEO now.
Thanks!
Congratulation!
Thanks @shyamady 👊
