LAUNCH PARTY LIVE - IG TRAINING

Sa. Sam. Sa. Sa. Foreign. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening and welcome. Wherever you are tuning in from around the world, welcome to another five days of Instagram fun. Welcome back. For those who are returners and for those that are new, welcome to what is going to be the funnest week you're going to have when it comes to learning all about Instagram. We've got a lot to pack in tonight. This is the first of what is going to be five nights of daily live videos. They are all going to be starting at 8:30 UK time. Wherever you are around the world, make sure you've got alarm set. So for over on our Eastern time viewers, that's going to be 3:30 central time. That's obviously going to be 2:30 in European times. Those are an hour ahead. It's going to be a bit late, so you're going to be 9:30 and over in Australia, it's going to be early or tomorrow morning. But that's the beauty of time zones. So make sure you've got it set. I'm going to go through the week, I'm going to go through what is going to be working in terms of times, all of that jazz very, very soon. But I know that there are a lot of people who are yet to be in this group. We've got over 700 people that have registered and there's nearly that amount in the group. But I know that we've got about 200 people on the live of us right now, which is great. But I know there's a lot of people that aren't aware. So here's what I need for you to do to help. If you go on your phones, if you're watching this on your phones, if you scroll over, you'll see all of these emoji buttons. If you can tap the love heart emoji button as many times as you can in the next 20 seconds, that gives a little flag to Facebook to say, hey, this live video is popular. It needs to tell everybody else in the group. So if you can do that for me as many, many times you can, that'd be great. Also as well, just let me know where you are tuning in from around the world. I can see we've got somebody tuning in from Ukraine. Hello, nice to see you. We've got somebody tuning in from Chicago. Hello, nice to see you. Got someone from Poland, we've got someone from Vermont, from Florida. We've got somebody tuning in from literally two minutes away from where I live. Hello, it's great to see so Many faces new and those that are returning, which is, which is fantastic. So very, very quickly before we do something very cool and for returners, you will know what I mean about this. But what I very quickly need for you to remember is that every night this week the video and the training is going to be within our Facebook group that we have set up. Okay, let me just very quickly share my screen so you can see this and I'm going to hit this button, Google Chrome. So you should be able to see this group here. You need to be inside this Facebook group to take part in the training. So if you are watching this on a stream that's on LinkedIn or on YouTube or on Facebook and you're thinking, hang on a second, how do I get in that group? Then all you need to do is go to booster.co.uk Instagram special training. All one word Instagram special hyphen training. It will take you to that page where you can register and then you will get the special link on how to join here. You need to be in here this week to take part in the actual training. I will make sure that that is linked up in the show notes. But we are very, very quickly going to get started. Before we do though, you are all very lucky because this training was almost had a little guest appearance from Rosie that was literally 10 minutes ago before Laura came to release the baby from me. But she was fast asleep on me just as I was getting the final preparations really. So Rosie nearly had a guest appearance on, on this training this week. So it's good to see so many people in here. So what we're going to do first and foremost to get kick started before we introduce our special guest for the week is we're going to do a very special game of spin the wheel. So I'm going to just share my screen again and I'm going to flip this over to spin the wheel. Now for those of you that are regulars of our training, you will know what this means. For those of you that are new, I will let you know. Now what you need to do now in the next one minute I need for you to in the comments drop your lucky number between 1 and 10. Between 1 and 10. Okay, I'm going to spin the wheel in one minute's time. So make sure you do it as soon as possible. And if the number is your lucky number, it doesn't mean that you have won our super special prize. What you need to do if you have won the super special prize is you need to go over to Instagram. Okay, you need to follow @Boostly UK, so jump onto my Instagram @Boostly UK, send me a direct message and just say, hey, I was lucky number, whatever it was. I will then over the next 24 hours pick someone at random and you will win the very special prize. And I'm going to keep tonight's prize, it's to the right of me, so it's one you're going to get in the post. I'm going to keep it as a surprise until tomorrow where I, I will reveal all. But every night this week we have got prizes to win and you are only able to win these prizes if you tune in for our daily debriefs, which are at 8.30pm UK time every day. The reason being is that we have a lot of people sign up for these trainings and we have a lot of people that take that extra effort to make sure that they are with us, visible, joining in, taking part, doing the work, but most importantly, being here on these live videos every single night. So I want to reward those that make that extra effort because obviously lives are busy, hospitality, business owners, families, friends, etc. To be able to turn up and be live every night. I want to make sure that you are rewarded. And so we can do something like this, which is really cool. Okay, so we've got a lot of number threes, we've got a lot of number twos, we've got a lot of number tens, etc, etc, etc, which is cool. You've got 10 more seconds to get your numbers in. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Okay, no more, no more numbers. Here we go. And there we have it, the lucky number. And I need to write this down and I will check, I will check. The lucky number is number five. So if you got number five, you need to jump over to my Instagram, you need to find at Boostly uk, B O O S T L Y uk, send me a direct message. So hit the message button and say, mark, I was lucky number five. I will collect all of yours and I will get a pluck someone at random tomorrow and you will win that special prize. That is to my right. Okay, so that is that out the way. That is exciting. All right, next, next, next, next. Here's what I'm going to do. So this week we are going to be working all around Instagram. We are going to be showing you how to use it, the ins and outs of it, how to drive traffic from Instagram to your direct booking website or to you directly and everything else in between. Now to do this, I wanted to bring in one of the best of the best. And on my right, right now, if I hit this is the amazing Paul Anderson, everybody. Show Paul a little bit of love in the comments if you can do hit that love heart emoji button as many times as you can. Paul, if you can just do us a massive favor, just introduce yourself very quickly and just let everybody give everybody a sneak peek of what is in in intel for everybody this week without giving too many of our secrets away.

Lovely. Thank you for such an awesome introduction, Mark, and thank you for having me here. I'm very lucky to be dialing in from Oxford in the UK where I have my, my guest house and I'm very blessed to be here in front of you all and it's, it's awesome to be invited back. So thank you again, Mark. So it was, it was my success using Instagram to drive traffic to my direct booking website that ultimately led me to create the social media hotelier in order to help other hosts do exactly the same. And one of my favorite ways of doing it is to teach these five day trainings. So this time I decided to switch things up and focus on the big buzzword in 2023 for Instagram and that's discoverability. It's no good doing anything unless people are going to find you. So I've designed the next few days to be value packed for everyone from novices right through to seasoned pros. It doesn't matter Whether you have 100,000, 10,000 followers, you are absolutely in for an enormous treat. And this will be especially so as we approach the end of the week, I'm super excited to show you a brand new Instagram tool that's so fresh that I did that. I recently started rerecording Friday's video just to get it back in. So grab a notebook, buckle up and if you do nothing else, just trust the process.

Yes, exactly. So doesn't matter if you've done this training before. This is, I think, number three times of us doing this, this training. We've got something new for you. I've watched all of the videos that we've done so far and you know, I guarantee you're going to learn something new. And if you're fresh and brand new, don't worry because this is an ideal step by step process for you to, to follow, which is, which is great. So this is how the week is going to work. Every night. As you know, at 8:30pm we're going to have a daily debrief. That is a live video where we all come together at 8:30pm now make sure you've got those alarms set. What's going to happen on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Paul alluded to Friday, there's going to be a video uploaded into the group every single day. Now that video is scheduled to go out into the group at 7am UK time. Now that doesn't mean that you need to be online at 7am Me and Paul are not going to be live at 7am that is just when the video is scheduled to go out. And the reason why we break it down into daily chunks and bite sized chunks is that if we were to upload Tomorrow morning a two hour video on Instagram, I guarantee we'd lose 90% of you. You just walk off and go, no, not for me too much. I ain't got two hours. What's this guy talking about? So this is why we break it down into bite sized pieces so that you can easily digest it. Tomorrow's video is about nine minutes if that and to do the work, two minutes. It really is that easy. So we break it down, we ease you in gently and then as the week goes on, we ramp it up and by the end of it you're going to be firing on all things Instagram. So I'm really excited to see the progress and as Paul said, trust the process. Okay? Everything that we do and everything that Paul does is, is tailor made and catered to fit every single style and ability. Now not only have you got the amazing Paul who's going to be helping you, we've also got some Boostly ambassadors behind the scenes who are here to help you. So we have Ger, we have Tracy and we've also got a couple of members of the team, Boostly team in Anthony, Luis and Jordan as well who are going to be looking out and trying to help as much as possible throughout the course of these five days. Okay, if you have a question, please don't be shy, pop it in the comments. But what's really important is that when you do your question in the right video, please make sure that the question is as as much context behind it as possible because obviously it's going to be myself, it's going to be Paul, Ger or Tracy that are going to be trying to help you with the answer. So the more context you can add to a question, the better. What I really advise everybody to do and please refrain, refrain from doing this is please don't jump into Paul's DMs into my DMs or to anybody's DMs to try and ask a question. This is not one to one training, okay? This is a free service that we are putting on. It's a one too many. So we have to answer questions in a group form every night. When we come back to do the debriefs, we're going to look to answer the most frequently asked question. And it's your questions, it's your comments, it's where you're stuck. That help will guide every single debrief, which is really important that you keep coming back every night for each of these debriefs as well as winning cool prizes, we want to be able to help and guide you as best as possible. So number one, when you do ask a question, leave a comment on the video. Number two, make sure that you put hashtag help because that will really guide us to who needs help. But number three, please refrain from sending DMS1 on ones to either Paul or I. Simply put here and now, if you send me a dm, I will not reply. If you send Paul a dm, I'm going to instruct him to not reply. The only reply you're going to get is please put it in the group because it doesn't make it fair for Paul's time and it doesn't make it fair for anybody else's time. Okay? So please, please, please make sure you do that. What we're going to happen between now and Friday. The goal isn't for you all to go Uber viral. The goal isn't for you to drive tons and tons and tons of direct bookings. By the end of the week, you're going to be like 100% book direct. That's not the case. What we want to do this week is we want to give you the knowledge of the latest trends that Instagram is wanting. Number two, we want to help you get a bit more of an understanding. But number three, come together as a group, come together as an accountability group. This is why we do this every couple of months. This is why we all come together and we give up our time. To do this is because if we were just to set you off on an email sequence and just say, right, follow this, it's all well and good, but at the end of the day, what we find that works best is when a group can come together and be accountable with each other. We've got 232 people right now on this live video with us, which is fantastic. We've got 700 people in total that are going to be in the group and all this week we're all focused and working on one specific thing which is going to be Instagram. So please don't be shy, please don't stay quiet, please don't lurk. Come and get involved, ask questions, get involved. We've got a load of team boosting members who are part of this group right now, who, you know, are very, very knowledgeable. So please, please, please, please, if you see a question that has been left unanswered, you know, just please nudge or give guidance or, you know, tag Paul in or tag myself in and we'll, we'll come and help that person as soon as possible. After Friday, we'll give you some instructions on how you can further work with, with Paul and Bruce Lee. But for now, what I want for you to do is just to get relaxed, get settled in. Make sure you've got the group notifications turned on. Make sure that you are getting our emails, my emails, which gives you the notifications. But also as well, I've set up a very special Facebook messenger bot. So every day you will get a notification when we're about to go live and also when the video is up and ready in the group as well. The most important thing to let you know, because this is the most frequently asked question that happens today, is what happens if I can't make a video? What happens if I miss a live? Will it be recorded? 110%, yes. Every single thing that we do this week will be in the group. So let me just quickly share my screen again and come away from Spin the Wheel, this Facebook group that we have here, everything will be in here. Now, if you're watching this on YouTube or in LinkedIn. Again, if you're not part of this group, you won't be able to take part in the training. So I recommend that you come over to boostly.co.uk Instagram special training. Register your details. You'll get access to this group right here. All the videos will be stored in here. Everything will be in here even after we finish this week. So you can come back to it at any time. But you need to be part of this group. It's 100 free. You don't have to pay to play. So come on over and join in the fun this week. With that being said, I think we're coming to the end of the training. The training for the first day, the launch party. Paul, is there anything that you want to words of guidance that you want to pass on to anybody before we let them go.

I think you've covered it off. Really, Mark, trust the process done is better than perfect. Hashtag help will give us a notification. We'll be all over it. We'll do what we can to get you through to the next day, but it is bite size. It builds on itself. By the time you get to Friday, everything that you learn on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday will all make sense and you'll be off and flying.

Brilliant. And there's one thing comment I just kept that sort of came up which was so true. No question is a silly question, which is fantastic. So with that being said, if you could all please, before I let you go, come over to your phones. If you're watching on the phone, tap that Love heart emoji button as many times as possible. Thank Paul, thank the ambassadors for this week and get ready. We start tomorrow at 7am UK time. That's when the first video is going to get uploaded in to the group. Really excited for this. Thank you everybody that's tuned in and we will see you back tomorrow. Okay everybody, have a good night, have a good morning, a good afternoon, wherever you are, and we shall see you tomorrow. Having a blast. Gonna get it on the Bruce Lee podcast. Bruce Lee like Bruce Lee. Cause it's so hard and the tea is loose leaf Making up those rhymes don't write it, just do it loosely.
