EP #140: How To Get More Local Followers With Instagram Trial Reels

There’s been a lot of buzz about Instagram Trial Reels lately. Creators are calling them “the new cheat code,” “the best feature Instagram has ever released” and “the fastest way to reach new people.”

But… do they actually work for local business owners?

Leslie is breaking down exactly how Trial Reels work, what makes them so powerful and (most importantly) how to use them to grow your local audience (not just rack up views from random people across the country).

In this episode you’ll learn:

• The biggest mistake local business owners make with Trial Reels and why their content is getting shown to non-local audiences
• How to optimize your Trial Reels for local discovery using keywords, location cues, messaging and clear city-specific hooks
• A simple script you can use to call out your city inside a Trial Reel to attract the exact people you want following you
