We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Robert Reyes. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Robert below.
Robert, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. What do you think matters most in terms of achieving success?
I have always said that success comes when knowledge and opportunity meet, in my case I learned everything I know in a self-taught way and the opportunity to create content for social networks professionally arose spontaneously, I already shared content before but in order to inform, suddenly many companies started asking for reviews for their business and the number of followers on my account started to grow rapidly; Currently I am over twenty thousand and I have created my own business of tourist trips to places near and far from my city, I share my experience in a professional way and I listen to the opinions of my followers.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
I became an influencer thanks to all the people who started to see my content and asked for more, I love being able to share my experiences and help other people to have a better experience in their trips; The marketing thing arose from my social network advertising venture, I studied a degree in communication sciences and had my own television program, the sponsors needed someone to manage their social networks, I decided to learn about the algorithms and the way in which people develop in social networks to be able to supply that need to my clients, as I improved my work, more and more clients arrived, currently I have also developed a travel agency combining the knowledge I have obtained and always listening to the needs of the people I surround myself with to create solutions to their problems, I feel at a very successful point in my life, and what I can say is that you should always prepare yourself with the necessary knowledge before starting your own business.
How did you build your audience on social media?
Mainly I can say that you must be original and plan your content very well, my main social network is instagram, and creating a nice and organized feed takes me time, I can advise you to plan the content of the week every weekend, and not you despair by the numbers, you keep sharing your knowledge and experiences that sooner or later the audience begins to arrive.
What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?
constantly improve my knowledge and acquire new tools to do my job better, staying at the forefront of what you do requires you to be constantly learning, personally I go to bootcamp every two or three months and take a course on a topic that helps me improve every two months.
