2.    Crafty DYI expert

Some people are great with their hands. They can knit, bake, carve, or draw for days. Do you have an uncanny ability to fix toasters? Or perhaps construct dioramas of eerie derelict colonial mansions?

If you do – you’ll be happy to know that Instagrammers will follow you with gusto.

You can post tutorials, inspirational photos of your work, or detailed captions that explain why you chose to re-finish your basement entirely in burnt orange.

DYI never looked so profitable.

 

3.    Live Event Promoter

Are you in the business of promoting events?

Instagram is a great place to get the word out – and make money. From creating winning stories (on rotation), to viral hash-tagging – to posting exciting behind-the-scenes footage … Getting that much needed pre-event buzz is a natural for the money-makers of Instagram.

However you decide the theme of your Instagram account, be sure to choose a topic you’re passionate about. Today, users are savvy and quick to spot an insincere influencer, just out for a buck.

You’ll also need patience. It could take years to grow your account to a profitable number. Be prepared to work hard, adapt content and re-strategize regularly to see your Instagram goose lay a golden egg.
