I Cracked Instagram in 21 Days

My numbers aren't massive yet, but I learned something bigger: how to get 10,000 views per day like clockwork.

Yesterday was the breakthrough. 5 different reels turned views into followers. Not one viral hit—consistent, repeatable growth across multiple pieces of content.

It's very early, but I'm thinking I can repeat this formula in any niche.

Here's what I discovered: Instagram has an unlimited glitch. Once you crack their algorithm, the same principles work everywhere short-form content lives—YouTube Shorts, TikTok, even LinkedIn video.

And here's the kicker: YouTube and TikTok actually pay for views. Instagram is just the training ground (you can make money there too, just not for views).

The 21-Day Process:

• Days 1-7: Figuring out what doesn't work (most advice is garbage)

• Days 8-14: Found the patterns that consistently hit 10K+ views

• Days 15-21: Optimized for follower conversion, not just vanity metrics

Yesterday proved the system works. Views became followers. Followers will become customers.

I'm thinking about dropping a training next week—maybe even going live—to share everything I learned in the first 21-30 days. But I want serious creatives only, people who'll actually implement this stuff.

I'll tally responses and decide based on what you actually want.

This isn't theory. This is 21 days of testing, failing, and finding what works in 2025. The algorithm changed. Most creators haven't caught up yet.

P.S. I had a last minute call with Aziz Ansari (Parks and Rec, Master of None) yesterday. He said if he had to start over, social media is exactly how he would do it. Interview coming soon.
