Here’s my 5 tips for having your own photoshoot at home!

I was needing some new photos to post on social media, but since we’re all stuck at home now…I thought about having an at home photoshoot! That’s where this video was born!

Here’s my Pinterest inspo board:

Are hashtags a foreign language to you? 🤔

Do you wanna learn how to use them to grow your biz?

If that's the case, my new course Hashtag 101: How To Choose the Best Hashtags for YOU...is definitely for you!

This week I'll be sharing with you the hashtag formula that I use for my own posts, as well as some of my clients' posts.

Basically, I like to divide my 30 hashtags into 3 categories:

👉10 hashtags about YOU (and your biz)

👉10 hashtags about your IC (ideal client)

👉10 hashtags about the specific post

When it comes to hashtags, less is definitely more, especially for smaller accounts.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

❌No, I don't mean you should use 5 out of the 30 hashtags IG lets you use...⁣⁣ 

✅I mean you should choose SMALLER hashtags, the ones with fewer posts.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

Basically big hashtags:⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

💥Have TONS of competition (so it's nearly impossible to stand out)⁣⁣ 

💥Give you a TINY window where your post can actually be seen (5 min max)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

So, instead of using something like #love this valentines day, try using something like #valentines2020 😉💕💕⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

And if you're in need of a bit of a push with your hashtag strategy, and don't have the time to DIY your strategy, DM me and I'd be happy to help you with that 😉⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

This week's podcast episode is part of my February Hashtag Challenge.

This week was an introduction to hashtags kind of week. Call it Hashtag 101.

Next week, we'll be diving into the "minimalism" of hashtags, as I like to call it. Curious to know what it's all about? Then all you gotta do is stay tuned! 😉

Hey everyone!

This episode wasn't meant to be posted here, it was originally created with IGTV in mind - hence the blurb at the beginning and the constant talk about the DM's.

I decided to post it here as well, since yesterday I figured out we're on Apple Podcasts now!! Wohoo! And since last week I introduced my business, I'd like to give a bit more context into what I want to do and who I wanna work with. So enjoy!

Oh and still, feel free to DM me on Instagram with your opinion, requests or just to chat! I'm @thesilviapinho, or you can follow the link below 😉

This is my first ever podcast episode, so bear with me! 😂

My name is Sílvia and I'm a Virtual Assistant turned Social Media Manager from Portugal. 🇵🇹

My word for 2020 is pivot, and I'm extremely multi-passionate - hence the podcast name.

In my ideal life, I run multiple businesses - one as a VA, another as a Social Media Manager, another one as an Etsy seller and last but not least a game design agency!

Right now I'm starting my own Social Media Manager business because I want to help other Etsy sellers with their Instagram strategies.

Down the line - either later this year or in 2021 - I'm thinking of pivoting (again) into coaching! I'm so passionate about what I do and the life I'm able to live by working for myself that I want to help others do the same and find their way in this big world that is online businesses.

If this sounds interesting at all - subscribe so you'll be notified when I post next! I'll be posting once a month in the beginning, and hopefully more frequently down the line.
