I think the issue is when people start an Instagram page and convert it to a business. Their followers (friends etc) might not match their target consumers for their business. Also the content they had on their personal page might not align with their business's brand.

10 salient points. Don't miss any of them! Simple breakdown: Rule of Thumb by Erin: "A business b rand should feel personal, and a personal brand can include business". ... Personal Brands 1. Tell a story and have a mission attached to it from your bio to very authentic, real content. No editing overkill. 1:45 2. Show who you are & your interests, even if you have multiple, e.g. starting with your top 3 attributes. 3:20 3. Be understandable to someone who doesn't know you with structure and repetition (follows point 3). 4:15 4. Be engaging e.g. with calls to action, swipe-overs, saves etc. 5:25 5. Add value where you see fit; aiming to correspond with your mission, or even tagging where you got the products in your pic. 5:45 6. Look relatively polished; not necessarily "professional" NOR super aesthetic. 6:55 ... Business Brands 7. Mix personable and curated(business/brand/professional) content. 12:15 8. Understand your audience's needs and speak to them quickly using your bio 13:10 9. Look organic but polished with content that's easy on the eyes 13:26 10. Have calls to action 13:37 ... My lessons: 1) A page should be dedicated to something. 2) What makes a personal page is the strong, undeniable presence of PERSONALITY; not giving up privacy. Big one for private or introverted people. 3) AIM to upload relatively frequently. You can start small and get comfortable doing more with time. THANKS ERIN!!! Looking pretty as always!😍

"a business brand should appear personal, and a personal brand can include business..." I definitely think this is helpful. I've seen a lot of people make their personal page into their business page (which honestly confuses me because I'd never remember following that page). That ends up being kind of irritating and can cause more bad than good IMO

Having an Aesthetic makes an Instagram feed more pleasing to the audience eyes. When something looks good people are more likely to pay attention and engage with your feed. If you need help with choosing an Aesthetic Pinterest has loads of options and exmaples. I hope this helps :-)

Naah! I think that if your brand is big enough or you hope to scale, it should be separate: 1. If you have or plan to have a team managing this area of your business, you don't necessarily want your team to have access to even your more personal messages, etc. 2. If your business name has nothing to do with your name, you might lose out on persons just remembering the name of your company and looking for a page in that name. It might also cause confusion, especially for older folks, even if you have links and hashtags with your business name, leading to a personal account. In my experience, a confused or distracted person, likely won't buy or even inquire. 3. I have read that one's posts only reach a relatively small segment of your audience. Your friends and family might not match your business' target audience and your stuff just might reach them, since you might interact with them frequently. I wouldn't want to have all my posts and especially my paid ads, going to them and not my real audience, just because algorithms pick up that they're interested in me. I don't think any amount of artificial intelligence is that intelligent to pick up who's friend from who's target audience.

The simple way to answer this question is to look at Garyvee. His personal page is what we all follow,His company Vayner Media is also online creating ads for Big companies but our interest is in the person garyvee. So one may be a Dr creating motivational content online as a personal brand but majority of his followers may never visit his hospital and that is fine. Almighty Facebook has only 8million advertisers compared to 8billion people on earth which simply means our Business won't be for everyone. That said,Building your personal brand online can be totally different from the work you do.I enjoy Erin's content and i may not be able to afford her services, doesn't mean she has to spend 2years convincing me to hire her.But if she spent the same time creating content i would love and focused on those who can afford her services,It saves us all the headache of wasting time. Really love this discussion Erin,Thanks and keep up the good work...

At the same time, I like the idea of having a page where I can just worry about expressing myself and not having to sell something ALL THE TIME. I'm glad it's not a me problem.
