How to Make Money Using Instagram, whether you have 400 or 400,000 Followers EP052


While you’re dreaming about being an Instagram influencer, I’m over here making mega money.

A little secret that most people don’t know and Instagram influencers don’t want you to know, is that many of them who have accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers aren’t making enough money to pay all of their bills.

How do I know this? Because some of those very influencers have become my clients, and I meet many of them at various speaking events I do. It’s like they are sitting on a gold mine but can’t sell the gold for cash, so they are just sitting on a mound of the pretty shiny stuff.

Truth is you don’t need a ton of followers to make money with Instagram, you need a niche, kick-ass branding, purposeful posts, and several other key elements I discuss on this episode.

Time to turn that gold into cash.

Welcome to ProjectME the Podcast with your host Tiffany Carter, who takes the mystery out of making BIG money. A former NBC and CBS TV journalist, turned multi-millionaire entrepreneur, teaching you all things wealth, worth, and business.

Ep 792 Why Success, Growth & Healing can Feel so Lonely

There’s a lonely season that happens before your life changes.

The season where you start outgrowing old conversations, old relationship dynamics, old coping mechanisms, and even old versions of yourself. From the outside, it can look like you’re becoming more successful, more visible, more confident, and more aligned. But internally? It can feel isolating while your nervous system, identity, standards, and relationships are trying to catch up to the level you’re stepping into.

In this episode, Tiffany Carter opens up about the emotional side of personal growth, business expansion, identity transformation, success, visibility, and reinvention that people rarely talk about.

This conversation is especially for entrepreneurs, high achievers, creatives, and ambitious women who feel disconnected as they build their next level.

Ep 791 Fire Horse Year Wake-Up Call: Why You Haven’t Hit Your Next Level Yet

If you have been feeling the pull toward your next level but something is not fully clicking, this episode is your wake-up call.

There is a specific kind of tension that happens when you know you are capable of more, you can feel the expansion, but your results are not fully matching that energy yet. This is where a lot of people either rise or stay in the same cycle.

In this episode, I break down what is actually happening beneath the surface when you are not hitting your next level in business and life, and why it has less to do with strategy and more to do with decision, fear, and how you are showing up.

This is not about doing more. It is about getting honest about what is really holding you back and shifting how you move forward.
