I make a lot of money using Instagram and you can too. I'm Braden Thomas, I'm 17 and have been traveling the US fulltime in an RV since 2013. During this time I have learned to grow, manage, and make money on my instagram pages as well as build a network of like minded page managers. I have also helped several of my friends build pages and learn how to make money from anywhere, anytime, all the time. I get asked a lot how people can make money with their own instagram page, and I try to tell them tips and tricks, but it is too much to explain all at once. This book explains it all, from choosing a name, to using analytics, to growing pages with authentic followers, to how I find and negotiate deals that keep the PayPal notifications coming. I even touch on what it's like when you get recognized in public by one of your many followers. This is exactly what I do to make money with instagram and how you can too.
