Influence with Instagram – Why We Made an E-Course

May 12, 2016 by Georgie @ The Long Run

AKSFJA :SF JALS:FSLFj <—Ok that gibberish was me freaking out on the keyboard because I’m really effing excited.

Woah woah woah (says you maybe?) “Why so excited Georgie?”

Well since you asked, today Christina, Rachel and I just launched our brand new e-course called Influence with Instagram. It’s for bloggers and instagrammers who are looking develop their style, grow their community, and earn an income by working with their favorite brands.

Influence With Instagram

This has been something I’ve been dreaming and scheming over since October.

This blog post isn’t going to be a sales pitch for the course, because you can get the whole (classy) schpeel over on BGBCommunity today (or if you’re part of our Facebook group or newsletter or follow @bgbcommunity on insta).

Instead, I wanted to talk about WHY we made this course.

So first off, Rachel and Christina are two of the most inspiring hard working women I know in this space and I’m unironically hashtag blessed to work with them. Rachel was my old boss at Bai and she and I lived and breathed Instagram for the year we worked together. She built our influencer program from the ground up and I helped grow our Instagram following from 2,000 to 25,000 in less than a year.

It was because of Rachel that I took Instagram so seriously for Bai. But, it wasn’t until she started Oats for You that I really upped my own insta-game for In it 4 the Long Run. Basically Rachel is my Insta-shaman.

No joke, the hardest part of leaving Bai was leaving Rachel (I literally ugly cried the day I quit) but in the back of my mind I knew that it wasn’t the end of our friendship or our working relationship.

Around that same time Christina, aka the Blissful Balanced bad ass and I were neck deep in creating the BGB Community website and strategizing where we wanted to lead this incredible community. Our biggest fear was losing momentum after we launched, so like the crazy bloggers we are, we were brainstorming our next project before we even launched.

Influence With Instagram

After the success of our first #BGBInstaChallenge in January it was crystal clear what had to happen next. As someone who finds true joy from connection and collaboration, the stars aligned and I knew we had to build an epic resource for bloggers trying to build their influence on Instagram with Rachel. Both Rachel and Christina have such strong, unique presences on the platform and were perfectly positioned to teach what they knew best: Killin’ the game on the gram.

So there ya have it. We made a comprehensive course because we knew how important of a tool this is for bloggers and we’re absolute believers that when our tribe wins we win. There is so much Instagram pie that seriously everyone can have their slice (if they work hard and chase it.)

You can learn more about exactly what you get with the course by going:

If you’re interested and have ANY questions about whether this course is the right fit for you, please please please reach out to me georgie@init4thelongrun.com. I’ll hop on call with you because the LAST thing I want is for someone to be the wrong fit and not get the most out of this resource.
