Instagram Community Building - Social Media Examiner - Best Practice Podcast

Social Media Examiner is an incredible podcast. Every week Michael Stelzner interviews an expert in their field about the cutting-edge tips and tricks in their field of expertise.

This week he interviewed Sue B. Zimmerman, "The Instagram Gal".

You can listen to the podcast and read more here: Instagram Growth: How to Build a Community on Instagram.

Wait, did I say read more? Yes, absolutely because one of the phenomenal things that Michael Stelzner's Social Media Examiner podcast does is to summarize the main points of the podcast interviews. Be sure to scroll down to get all of the extremely helpful information.

And yes, of course there's the very professional and well done podcast as well.

Michael Stelzner never disappoints and always comes up with gems of new tools at the start of each podcast with his "Discovery of the Week.

But the real value of this podcast is the expert interview. Each of these interviews highlights the newest and best ways to leverage the subject matter...Instagram for this week's podcast.

For instance in this week's podcast (and related post) we learn about:

Improving Your Instagram Marketing


  • What marketers should know about Instagram
  • Promote conferences and events with Instagram
  • Create a community on Instagram
  • How marketers can use Instagram hashtags
  • How marketers can use Instagram Direct (messages)
Quite a lot of amazing practical and immediately useful info for the stellar price of...Free (yes, free!).

I can't recommend the Social Media Examiner podcast highly enough, but suffice it to say that you should definitely check it out and make it a part of your weekly podcast listening.

And if you aren't listening to podcasts regularly (which I'd also highly recommend) then at least read or scan the Social Media Examiner podcast write-up for a number of quick takeaways without listening at all.
