To whoever is reading this, I hope you reach your full potential and keep grinding!

[@janetownley]

But I don’t want to “grind”

[@nadeemahmed2083]

Thank you so much...

[@ochioasalutata7092]

Thank you fellow Canadian! It doesn't have to be a grind. :) wish you all the good in the world!

[@sandysstorytime]

U2👍🏼

[@BrycePangarakis]

You too

[@kendrickeraart]

This was so informative. Thank you for all the information and for always being so entertaining while providing the info!

[@LexaKarlyn]

Your production quality, information and delivery are incredible. Thanks for the video!

[@MillieAdrian]

Thank you so much Alexandra 😭🧡

[@MarketingHarry]

You can't just skip all the fundamental stuff and expect to grow in a matter of weeks for example. Everyone seems to be very impatient, but it doesn't work this way. Reels are not something magical that will instantly make you go viral. Great tips, Millie! 💯

[@Peaceandharmonysleepsounds]

Well in 3 days of posting I have 2.5 million views on Instagram,now for the followers

[@gaiaweissfeld4907]

Love videoes like these! Definately tips on reels in general. Love your profile

[@ochioasalutata7092]

Hi Millie! Thank you for making this video! I hope you're doing well! You have such a funny and gentle way about you! Great information with a few jokes = best way to learn. Thank you for helping us to grow. You're awesome and we appreciate you! ❤🙏

[@missfuraha]

Thank you soo much for this information, i really needed it to grow on ig, new subbie can't wait for more💕

[@dijhaallen]

I love your content! Tremendously helpful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.

[@saramg3557]

21% for me! Which actually surprised me lol. Love the channel, all of your videos are super helpful!

[@MekaBanes]

First time here, helpful video

[@kimberlyregina]

My conversion rate is 3%. I am just starting out and as you’ve mentioned want to get this right before going off the deep end in ALL the wrong directions. Modern Millie you are thee best 💐

[@chaleenyenhuis8774]

I am so glad I watched this. I was discouraged at my follower and engagement rate until I calculated my conversion… which for the past two weeks (since that’s when I started) is at 30%. So I’ll take that as a win and just keep going! Thanks Millie!

[@fatimanieves9458]

Thank you so much for your tips! ❤️🤗

[@monicamcgahan]

I appreciate how you break things down to simplify terms! I’ve heard things you’ve said before But you take the time to take it the next of explaining. Thank you again so much!!!

[@shessomoney2713]

Thank you for taking the time to create this video. My conversion rate is 17%. In the past 30 days I had 168 new follows and 965 profile visits...weird because I still feel like I'm growing very slowly!

[@PawelSiemieniuk]

It is so important to ask the "why" question. Many forget that but the answer to this question is the root for the fruitful activity. And you explained that so well!

[@kareninTO]

This post is so helpful. Thank you, Millie!

[@MillieAdrian]

Glad it was helpful Karen😁

[@CactusLadyCreation]

In February to March my conversion rate was 15% percent which I was pretty happy about but then it dropped down to 4.2% for the last 30 days (yikes!), so I have to analyze where I went wrong. Thanks so much for all of the work you do and sharing this amazing content with us.

[@alexandrayoung1063]

I just followed your formula to figure out my conversion rate and I'm at 26% for the last 30 days! My account is still very small but this is giving me huge motivation! Thanks for all the advice Millie!

[@meganlovesmagic91]

Mine's 17% - thank you so much for sharing this Millie!

[@AlejandraCerda]

OH my! How could I miss this lovely shout out. Thank you! And thank you for creating awesome content.

[@MillieAdrian]

You're welcome Alejandra 🥰

[@allisonweeks504]

A surprising 23%. Thanks for the breakdown and suggestions! “Would you follow you?” 😬 Gonna have to really think about that one.

[@elisascreations.]

Very valuable. Thank you so much x

[@MillieAdrian]

Hi friends, thanks for watching! If you need help increasing your Reels views, here's 50 Reels Hooks: itsmodernmillie.samcart.com/products/50-reel-prompts/

[@nakeymakeypainty]

This was super helpful and actually really encouraging. I still want to increase my conversion rate but I thought I was LAGGING this month at 14%. I'm actually doing better than most months, I just needed to understand the data. I accidentally discovered I enjoy social media at my old job and by documenting my makeup usage. It's so fun to grow my little page and share my love of using and reviewing makeup with others that do too.

[@naomimurphy9710]

22% thank you for this info! I’ve been loving your content. It’s been sooo helpful for my growth on IG. Still small but every little bit counts

[@MillieAdrian]

Exactly Naomi! Every little bit counts 🥰

[@40YearOldVersion]

this was real helpful

[@oliviafortheocean]

14% conversation rate. This was so helpful. I've never thought to look at this metric and I'm such a numbers girl! BTW, I'm a project manager in my day job so I always giggle a little when you talk about PM and get in PM mode. 😂

[@isabellacorrea512_]

Helpful tips!!!

[@veramuch]

My conversion rate is 16% as well ! But I only made two reels (my posts do a better job at converting for now) so I got a lot of great advice in this video ! Greetings from France :)

[@TheMentalHealthToolbox]

Thanks! This os such great content. I am leaning in on IG now and so glad I found you 😁🙏🙏🙏

[@ImpressiveGlow]

13% this really helps!!! Thank you!!

[@krisk5119]

You’re so right!!

[@schmidtsidehustles4867]

I love your videos! You give such good tips!! I have a question for you. When you talk about posting the same content and what you want to be known for. Do you think that the lifestyle niche is too broad?

[@kristeenatorres]

My conversion rate 26% thank you! Love your videos!

[@WigsbyDevorah]

Great advice thank you

[@elainakate2005]

This video is so helpful wow!!!

[@LifewithLych]

You gave me much to think about. 🤔 Thank you

[@jeffjohnsonization]

16%! I know I’m late to the party, but just discovered your content. Great stuff 🖖🏾

[@kyliesketches2271]

10%! I thought mine was going to be much lower! But this gives me hope! I know I tend to get super impatient but I’m definitely in this for the long haul! 😁

[@veronicar.5526]

wow, this video was right on time!

[@the.whisperedword]

10.9%! Better than I thought it’d be!

[@tywinkalandyk]

Really great content

[@rome_p8914]

Thanks!!

[@patrycjasendrowicz7713]

Hi Girl, love your channel! My conversion rate is 11%. U r amazing!

[@gh0stmartini]

Thanks for providing that formula! I’m at 12.2%! Has me feeling really good

[@Tofuthegreatpyrenees]

I created an account for my puppy at the end of February, but just started taking his account seriously when I saw how many people enjoyed his content. I’ve been binge watching all of your videos! His currently conversion rate is 60% 😲

[@TheeGoddessWithin]

1% is my current conversion rate according to your formula. Thanks for the #breakdown

[@GloUp100]

It’s like you’re reading my mind lol thank u for sharing

[@findmehealing]

My conversion rate is 3.5%, yikes!! I've never calculated this before but now I feel like I have a better understanding of what I need to do to increase that. Thank you!!!

[@olivia.smith1106]

Wow! I’m sitting at 15% thanks for the breakdown! I’ve heard it talked about but wasn’t sure how to actually calculate it.

[@FBAStacey]

New sub, you had me at People of Color. That tells me you are sincere. Great tips as well.✌🏾🔥♥️

[@jaimymetts]

Ope very nice video!!

[@Wendy-gz7gu]

Thank you so much for this formula. I’m at 11%

[@smartnewborns]

33% 🤗 Wow! never new how to do that! Thank you!

[@MissMelindas]

14% I was happy with this number, but would like to see what I can do to improve it. Thanks for breaking it down Millie!!

[@MillieAdrian]

YES! Next goal is to get 20%!🤗

[@annadoelle]

Just saw this video...thanks for explaining easily! I'm @ 12.5%, yay!!

[@RyanMOutdoors]

Follow your joy. I like it!

[@lindablackerby9819]

Great and helpful video as I now have a way to know if what I’m doing is working. I have a new biz IG acct started last Nov. (I’m a fine artist). I had studied a lot about how to create the right and consistent content. My conversion rate is 28% over last 30 days. Yay!

[@gainesdominique]

I started watching you last night. Thank you! IG seems fun to try to master... if even possible.

[@johnmendez9681]

This was super helpful, my current conversion rate is 13.6%

[@joannasalameh]

72%! Didn't expect it 😍 (40 new followers / 55 profile visits)

[@LoveAnastassia]

6.98, but I did take about two months off from social media posting due to burnout. Hoping to start fresh and strong with this advice!

[@bibipsalter]

27% which was super surprising! I definitely need to work on consistency since I’m converting pretty well

[@Michele.Alejandraa]

Do you have a video about the reason you are on social media? Also great video! I have been struggling with niching down. 😔

[@TexasStoryteller]

excellent - i had to watch a couple times - you talk a little faster than i can hear :) - but within two minutes i learned something! immediately switched my account to "Creator" - who knew?? Thanks

[@Laurenscorpio]

Can anyone tell me how to view profile visits? All I’m seeing is reach, accounts engaged and total followers? Thanks in advance :)

[@pernillemoesgaard1]

Had the same problem! But found it under reach and the scroll down to the bottom 👌🏼

[@Laurenscorpio]

Thank you, my conversion rate is 18% :)

[@amybaglan124]

Thanks for this! I still have a personal page and would need to convert to a business profile in order to view the data insights. Do you have any data showing if switching from personal to a business page has any impact on reach or overall performance?

[@cutoutdolls]

Very good 💕

[@witchybricks]

I'm 10% yeeei (I really can't believe it) that makes me feel more confident, I'm still low but not that much, thanks a lot for your tips, you inspire me to keep going!

[@chicimageconsulting]

29.73%. I am learning so much here. Thank you.

[@commoncourtney]

This was super helpful. Thank you! Mine is 25%!!

[@krishicareer1221]

You are very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

[@GBFragrances]

Where can I find my profile visits? Thanks!

[@SusanaDownes]

14% isn’t too bad! Good to know my conversion rate, thanks Millie!

[@syazone6782]

Hi susana, it is a long time not to see you ,i hope u doing well

[@SusanaDownes]

@@syazone6782 … do I know you?

[@IamSallyLo]

Hi Millie! question ! my country can't use reel! but I can post reel just won't show it on my profile feed or on my page! so does the reel strategy still work for me?

[@Ciceromode]

I got 16% too!! 🙌🏾

[@JoshSharman]

I look forward to every Wednesday because of Modern Millie

[@semejiaturcios]

I have 88% :O This information is really helpful!

[@nika_newcity_socialmedia]

Well, I always say that there is no magic pill for becoming popular. You have to work hard. But your advice make it easier. Thanks for that.

[@MellyWyx]

Such good content! Follow-up question, how do you start growing followers organically from 0? I’ve had great reach with reels(25k accounts reached) and okay engagement (600 accounts engaged) but my followers are just not growing. Any ideas? I have less than 100 followers.

[@TheFaithlessBullet]

52.81% conversation rate. But my posts perform around 80% better than reels. And to add on top of that my account exists for like 5 months , so I dont know are my numbers actually real as my follow is very low at this moment. I post 5 times a week on feed and 1ce a week a reel. Almost every your video help me a lot, thank you for making this for us!

[@tarynfinelli4844]

Mine was 75% but I had a few reels do really well so not my typical but I’ll take it 💕

[@daniilmatsavila9575]

I have everything pretty much right on my acount, cyrently at 28 posts reached 50k people in last 30 days, but I have 0.02%conversion rate, and I won't follow my page from other view, what do I do?

[@HikeOregon]

50.5% but I had two reels take off over the past 30 days so this conversion rate was not typical for me before this.

[@SandraEmiliaFashionStylist]

4,7 % that hurt 😫 but I have been struggling so much lately so need to figure this out!!

[@chicimageconsulting]

Does # of profile visits equal accounts engaged?

[@naillacquertherapy]

Mine is at 8.9% and this is after I took some time off. So I’m happy with this number right now.

[@TheDangVibe]

Thanks for all the great tips. Is it true I can only grow my IG with I'm a business account? Not a personal account? I'm curious 🤔

[@tulahelena]

My conversion rate is 9%! Not as bad as I expected honestly

[@andrewjensengolf]

Sitting at a whopping .01% conversion rate! 17 new follows from 117k new accounts reached

[@sabrinaklimkiewicz3018]

Hi, do you count follows or overall follows (minus the unfollows)?

[@chailee1968]

Love ur vids. Can someone tell me why IG reels are not automatically fed into FB? The regular posts are! Thanks

[@hensbread]

5.86% that number was a whole heck of a lot less then I watched "how to make a reel" and the account is slowly growing more and more!

[@kristeng.reich-simplysweet9628]

Wait, how can I find the number of profile visits?

[@salliuxdv]

I just started doing reels a week ago. My account is fairly new and I calculated my conversion rate for the past week when I did posted reels and also stories consistently. According to this is 8%.

[@janetownley]

Psst.. don’t use unknown website platforms when there are solid, reliable ones

[@conscious__creators]

Where do I find the profile visits!? Eeek 😬 I can’t see it in my insights… do you have to see the time period…

[@GamingFusionOffical]

Any series or tips for shorts

[@louiseholliday5123]

10.6% which is better than I thought!

[@nailartbylysanne]

Mine is 28,5% 🤯 Didn’t realize it is so much!
