In today's episode, Brock Johnson shares honest, practical advice for business owners who are thinking about starting on Instagram in 2026. The foundation of it all is building a personal brand — and the first skill worth developing is getting comfortable on camera. From there, Brock covers the mindset shifts that matter most early on: you don't need to be an expert, but you do need real experience; quantity beats quality when you're starting out; and building in public is one of the fastest ways to grow both an audience and a business. He also gets into the practical side — how to think about your niche and MVP before chasing a big vision, what realistic growth actually looks like month over month, why staying in your lane matters more than most people admit, and why understanding your audience's psychology will always outperform chasing the algorithm. This episode is less about tactics and more about what it actually takes to show up consistently and build something real.
