Teespring + Instagram Shout-out?

Anyone have experience with combining Teespring with advertising on a big account?

I have the opportunity to buy a shout-out on an account with 2.7 million followers in a niche for about $140. I figure if just a slim fraction of those followers buy, I'll be able to easily cover my costs.

    Check the other post on the page to see if the page is active. Try to make sure your product aligns with their page. you roughly would have to sell 15 shirts to make that initial investment back.

    You can try it. I would and have but with paid posts I never sold one shirt but was a newbie to teespring when I tried and I know I made mistakes and didn't have the best shirts. But sometimes a 30-60 minute post may make it hard to convert unless you have the perfect teeshirt and passionate niche like the car niche on Instagram. This is where I see the most people offering teespring tees from.

    I haven't tried it yet because I'm busy with all kinds of things related to Internet Marketing but I was thinking of contacting an account owner and offering them like 50% of tee shirt sales if they keep the post up for the whole teespring campaign and repost it often to put the picture back into the photo feed where it will get most of its exposure to their followers. Just an idea.

    Try to keep your t shirt as relevant as possible to the account, and for as long as your money can buy to ensure you reach as many followers as possible. If you're serious about marketing on Instagram you could make your own account, build it naturally for a while with good interaction and posts then get a shoutout for your account for whatever your selling. This way the followers are a lot more targeted, as most who will follow you will have some kind of interest.

    Be careful. I have 126,000 on my facebook page. I was getting 4 million reach per week, until I advertised. Then, it dropped over 90%. Posts with links get really poor reach, since FB limits them. Ask for a guarantee, because even on a 2.7 million page, their organic reach might be 5,000/week or less depending on how active they are or how much Facebook limits them.
