In this episode, I break down how I used Instagram to build a real business at a young age—and what I’d do if I had to start from zero again. I talk about where the whole thing started: reading Rich Dad Poor Dad at 15, trying stocks and day trading with a small account, realizing it’s slow with €2,000, and then switching to making money online. That’s when I discovered Instagram theme pages: faceless accounts around a clear topic (business, wealth, travel, fitness, etc.) where you post viral content consistently and grow a following without showing your face. I explain how theme pages actually make money (affiliate marketing first, then services like content creation, then coaching calls, and later digital products). I also address the “is it saturated?” question: it’s not—if your content stands out. Back then you could get away with mediocre content and “power likes,” but now you need better content, and the upside is massive reach (one Reel can hit tens of millions). The biggest mistake I see is people building followers without building a brand—no story, no trust, no true fans. My playbook is simple: model what works, commit hard, document the journey (even when you’re broke), and turn attention into a funnel that converts.
