It’s finally here. May 12th. After months of planning, scheming, writing, designing, tweaking, recording, editing, hustling we are finally ready to announce the launch of

Influence with Instagram

It’s a 5-part self-guided course teaching you exactly how to build your influence on Instagram and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you today.

Why We Made The Influence with Instagram Course

The number one reason we felt so compelled to create this course is because of the massive impact that Instagram has had on our own blogs and businesses. And we want you in on the party. Hour for hour, minute for minute, time spent on developing our Instagrams has been the most valuable in terms of:

blog growth and discovery
connections and collaborations with our communities
actual blog traffic
opportunities to work with our favorite brands (and yes make money)

It was back in October when we realized that

a.) Our own Instagram pages and blogs were hitting an inflection point where it was time to take them even more seriously

and

b.) We were being flooded with the same (amazing) questions about how to build your influence using Instagram

Which lead us to the conclusion that there was a need out there for a comprehensive course that could take any blogger, especially women in the healthy living, food and fitness niches from Instagram 101 all the way to earning an income through their influence.

Once we realized this, we knew we wanted to get another Insta-bad ass on board to help us create this course. And instantly, the first person who came to mind was the healthy dessert, barre-loving, kombucha queen Rachel Mansfield of @rachlmansfield.

oh hi babes 🙃 i got my sunnies on & i’m eating dark chocolate peanut butter cups, and we already worked out — this sunday is off to a perfect start, hope everyone is having a fab sunday 😎🍫☀️🌷

With a dream squad assembled, it was time to get crackin’ and create something that could truly be the blueprint for creating an impactful presence on Instagram.

Who This Course is For

Ok, so who exactly is this course for?

Well, we designed it so anyone who is looking to build a community on Instagram could benefit. However, we believe that the members of the BGB Community, specifically women who are in the food, healthy lifestyle and fitness arena will get the absolute most out of this course.

This course will help you if you are just starting out, or if you’re looking to learn how to really develop your signature “I can spot her photos from a mile away” style. Because that ish doesn’t happen by accident.

However, if you’re looking for hacks, tricks or any simple method for overnight explosive growth then this probably isn’t your jam. This course has a TON of homework because we’re firm believers that building your brand on Instagram takes a lot of work. We’re here to show you what that hard work looks like and HOW to do it but you still have to put in the time.

Each section comes with multiple “Take Action” lectures which are essentially your Instagram homework.

What You Get

5 Sections with 3-5 lectures (You can check out the full curriculum here)
Complete with full audio recordings
A visual slide deck to follow along with each lecture
A full pdf transcript of the audio recordings
Take Action homework items for each section
Access to the student-only Facebook group led by Christina, Georgie & Rachel

The Benefit of Taking A Course vs. Using Free Resources

We’ll be totally honest, it feels kind of weird selling a product. Yup, we said it. But here’s why we believe that, if you really want to grow your influence with Instagram, taking a course is worth it:

First: Because it works

It really does. These are the exact strategies, action items, editing styles, photography principles, relationship building fundamentals, brand collaboration tools that we use ourselves. The material in this course has helped us grow not only large followings (a combined 140k between the three of us) but engaged communities of followers who care what we have to say (which in the end is far more important). And that cannot be done by any insta-bots or follow for follow BS out there.

Second: Investing in Something Means You’re Serious

We only want people to take this course if they really want to build influence with Instagram. We would rather sell 5 courses to 5 women who are crazy passionate and see lasting results, than to hundreds of people who are going to let the material collect dust. That’s just the truth.

By investing in this course, we believe it means you’ll take this seriously because we know how much of an impact it can make on your blog.

Obviously results will vary with each student, but we have a big hunch that you’ll make back your investment in a big way you are able to utilize the tools, especially in section 5.

Third: Access to A Group of People Who Really (Really Really) Want You To Succeed

We believe one of the most valuable parts of this course is the Facebook group where you’ll have access to not only Georgie, Christina & Rachel but to your fellow Influence with Instagram students who are all passionate about taking their pages to the next level.

Commitment is a powerful thing, and even more powerful in a group. You already know this. Working on a goal alone is one thing, when you have a tribe of cheerleaders to boost you up through the highs and the lows you can do far more than you imagined.

So yeah, we think it’s worth it, because you’re worth it.

One last note:

If you are on the fence about whether this is the right course for you, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We’d be happy to go over whether we think it’s a good fit because the last thing we want is someone who isn’t over the moon psyched about the whole experience. Just email info@bgbcommunity.com and we’ll answer any question.
