Developmentally, the celebrity often goes through a process of: first loving, then hating fame; addiction; acceptance; and then adaptation both positive and negative to the fame experience. The unfortunate truth, however, is that for each and every celebrity, the fame machine can only churn for so long.
It has become the American way. Are we somehow complicit in the downward spiral of so many great talents of our time? Have their lives become an opportunity for our own vapid TV viewing, satiating voyeuristic interests, while munching junk food mindlessly on the couch?
I am as guilty as anyone. And, from the other vantage point, how dangerous are the blinding lights of fame to the unsuspecting and naive star? The answer is: very.

All ten names, additionally, are still fairly well-known today. This is the surest way to have a great start. There are creative ways you could still shine in the spotlight. For example you can come forward with your lack of talent and make fun about it. Or why not start an Instagram account about your journey of learning to sing and share your experience with the world? We all have friends and family.
Be sure to include everybody in your journey. I get it, when I started gettinggrowth , I was super nervous. The truth is, putting yourself out there is like walking in front of an unknown audience for the first time on a big stage. There will be people who absolutely love you the way you are. There will be haters the internet — duh! Those first followers are important so you could actually work out your processes and start getting a rhythm of how you want to do things. Be sure to check that out later as well.
Most brands and big accounts have developed their own hashtag, which is solely used by them and their followers. Some say you should use 30 hashtags, which is currently the maximum amount of hashtags allowed by Instagram.
Research shows that using more than 11 hashtags gets more engagement. Buffer has put together a very nice article about using hashtags. I personally recommend using all 30 hashtags per post. Just make sure you keep them relevant and keep changing them once in a while to reach different audiences. In , we did some experimentation on using less hashtags and using them in post caption instead of in the first comment. If anything the engagement decreased.
If you need some help figuring out what hashtags to use check out these hashtag generator tools. Instead try using hashtags that have around k to a few million post shares to gain better reach.

Make a bio that grabs instant attention and interest so your potential followers would want to scroll down and see your posts.
You can spice up your bio by using your personal hashtag which we talked about already. Although, it really depends on your niche and target audience.
Let your potential followers know what your account is about and suggest them to follow you. You obviously want to stand out and not be another indie lifestyle blogger, food lover or world traveler.
Wow, that almost rhymed. Anyway, you should always try to stick to a certain color pallet or photo style. Of course, the more people will see the real you, the easier it is for you to create content and make people fall in love with the real you.
We all have stories to tell. The way we present these stories is everything. There are 3 key elements why people interact in social media.
They want to be entertained, inspired and educated. These are linked with what we discussed in the first point. Instagram is all about beautiful content. Make each post seem like you worked on it the whole day.
