Set the targeting once. Let it compound.
Austin runs an Amazon-affiliate account curating discounts, coupons, and promo codes. When he came to us, he was three-to-four months into social media - wide-eyed to the whole thing. Twelve months of Magnet Pro later he was past 218,000 followers and called it "life-changing." Today he is past 357,000 followers and the curve is still climbing.
Austin's model is Amazon-affiliate deal sharing: every post is a product with a commission behind it. The math is simple - more of the right followers = more clicks = more commissions. But he was only a few months into Instagram and didn't know what actually moved the needle on growth.
In his own words: "I was kind of wide-eyed to the whole thing." He needed someone who knew which followers to target - not just follower count. And he needed an approach that didn't require him to tweak it daily, because he was already running a business.
We pointed Magnet Pro at the exact accounts and hashtag communities where his audience lives - deal hunters, Amazon shoppers, couponers, promo-code followers. Austin's key quote: "Once you set up your targeting through the platform, the targeting is done. You don't have to come back to it."
Every new follower got a custom welcome DM pointing to his top-performing affiliate link. Conversations started immediately. Commissions compounded.
This is what Austin liked most: he didn't have to tweak anything daily like a Meta ad. His exact words: "I don't have a lot of time as a business owner to be tweaking and making changes to that stuff every single day. So this was a different, way more attractive offer than anything that I had heard." The platform ran in the background; he focused on content and deals.
The 357K followers aren't vanity - they're inside his deals niche, actively clicking affiliate links. He hit 218K in his first 12 months and called it "life-changing on a platform like Instagram." He has since added another 139,000 real followers on top of that.
The results weren't just his. Austin introduced friends to us, and they've hit six-figure followings too: "I put some friends in touch with Jacob. They signed up and now their accounts are six-figure following type deals." The playbook is replicable - Magnet Pro isn't a lucky break, it's a system.
