How to Make $100+ on Instagram (Even With <1,000 Followers)

Most people think you need 10K+ followers to start making money on Instagram.
That’s just not true.

In fact, I’ve seen faceless pages with under 1,000 followers make their first $100 online — just by using smart monetization strategies.

Here are a few you can start with:

✅ Affiliate Links
Recommend a product your audience already wants. Sign up for an affiliate program (like Amazon Associates or niche-specific products) and earn a commission for every sale through your link.

✅ Digital Products
Even with a small following, you can sell ebooks, guides, or templates if your content solves a real problem. A small but targeted audience can convert better than a huge one.

✅ Shoutouts
Brands or even other small creators may pay you to promote them if your niche is tight and your engagement is solid.

✅ Micro-Services
If you’ve learned how to create content, edit reels, or write captions — offer that as a freelance service. People will pay for your skills.

💡 Here’s the key:
It’s not about the number of followers. It’s about the quality of your audience and whether your content positions you as someone worth trusting.

And if you want to skip the guesswork… my Instagram Growth Starter Pack lays out a clear path to monetization (even for small pages). Inside, you’ll get step-by-step playbooks for affiliate marketing, product creation, and more.
