04 — Instagram: The New Channel

Early days,
climbing from zero.

Mar – Aug 2026

Instagram is the newest channel I've built out for this account — content only started in March 2026, on a page that's still under 150 followers. It's early, but impressions and engagement have been climbing steadily as posting became consistent.

What the data
tells us.

📈
Followers Grew Every Month

Facebook followers grew every single month, Jan–Aug, with no dip — from 6,258 to 8,293, roughly 250 new followers a month, all organic, no paid boosting.

🎯
More Posting, More Impressions

The biggest impression months — January (2.98M) and July (2.14M) — line up with the weeks I posted more often. Reach follows how much goes out.

🌱
Instagram Is Early, But Growing

Starting from zero in March, Instagram impressions and engagement both grew through spring before levelling off — expected for a channel still building its first real following.

💬
Engagement Is High Relative to Reach

7.4M engagement actions against 14.1M impressions on Facebook means people are reacting, sharing, and commenting, not just scrolling past.

🎥
Video Content Gets the Most Engagement

The feed leans heavily on short-form video — quote reveals, team moments, collection day clips — and it's the format driving most shares and comments on both platforms.

Figures are rounded from weekly reporting pulled directly from Facebook and Instagram, 2 Jan – 14 Aug 2026. August figures are partial (2 of 4+ weeks). Shown here as part of my role managing organic social for CashForCars.co.uk.
