“Come back to your brand, come back to offering tons of value.” - Brenda Burns
Today’s guest on the Art of Adventure podcast is Brendan Burns, founder of @TheAdventureDaze. Brendan is a coach and online instructor who has organically grown his Instagram accounts over 100,000 followers. Brendan loves lifestyle design and wants people to follow their passion and find a way to monetize that.
I originally connected with Brendan on Instagram and after we chatted, I knew I needed to have him on the podcast.
Brendan is currently based in New York but grew up in Long Island. He went to Cornell University in Ithaca, where he got his undergraduate, law, and dual MBA degrees. He worked for a couple of years in the Wall Street, until one day, he finally decided to pursue his passion, that is, travelling and entrepreneurship.
In this episode, Brendan shares the story on how he got into Instagram and how he became an influencer. He explains how Instagram works and how it will work for anyone who wants to earn from it. He is currently focusing on his business and self-development tools and strategies that help people achieve their highest potentials.
Before this Interview, I personally took Brendan's Instagram training course, and it helped me save tons of time while continuing to grow my account. Even though I already knew about some things like posting times and commenting, I learned about automation, direct messaging, and some of the technical detail for how to actually make money from someone that follows you on Instagram. It's also super affordable compared to other Instagram courses I have seen out there.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
* How Brendan grew his Instagram and an epic business out of it
* How to have a strong Instagram following
* How to spend less time in managing your Instagram account
* How he went from zero to thousands of dollars a month in less than two years
* How to be Instafamous
* How systems drive business growth
