What Can an Influencer Do to Get More Followers?
Post on a schedule, reply to comments and DMs, and collaborate with creators your audience already follows. A giveaway adds a spike on top, as long as the prize suits your niche, so new followers stay after the draw.
To run one with Gleam:
- Create a Competition and add a prize from your niche, ideally your own product or merch.
- On the How to Enter tab, add Visit a Profile on Instagram or Follow on TikTok for the account you're growing.
- Add Viral Share, so entrants earn extra entries when friends enter through their link.
- Check your Terms & Conditions include a full release of Instagram by each entrant and say Instagram doesn't sponsor or run the giveaway.
- Share the landing page from your bio and stories.
Note
We can't check follows automatically. Visit a Profile only records that the entrant clicked through to Instagram, and TikTok Follow records the entrant's TikTok username at sign-in, so check winners against your follower list before you announce them.
Never buy followers. Fake accounts drag your engagement rate down and break Meta's and TikTok's rules.
