I'm GWEN —YOGA TEACHER TRAINER, MENTOR & STRATEGIST

Have you ever wondered how to turn your Instagram reels into cash? 💸 I’m about to let you in on the secret of how I made $1,200 per reel in August—and here’s the kicker, I only posted 10 reels all month. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it’s totally doable, and in this post, I’ll show you exactly how I did it.

If you’re tired of posting content that doesn’t convert, this post is for you. I’ll break down my strategy, how I set up evergreen sales funnels that run in the background, and how you can start creating content that brings in real money—without being glued to your phone or spending hours on each post.

Step 1: Change Your Instagram Mindset

Before we even get into the technical side of things, let’s talk about your mindset.

Most yoga teachers go on Instagram to scroll, compare, and feel like they’re falling behind. Sound familiar? The first step is to stop consuming and start showing up like a business owner. Instagram isn’t just for fun anymore; it’s a tool for building your yoga business.

If following other yoga teachers is making you feel less confident, unfollow them. If you’re serious about growing your business, you need to create content that serves your audience, not scroll through other people’s highlight reels.

Step 2: Why Reels?

So why are reels such a powerful tool for growing your yoga business?

  • Reach More People: Reels get pushed to the Explore page, meaning more people who don’t follow you yet will see your content.
  • Easy to Consume: People love quick, digestible content. A short reel is easier for your audience to engage with than a long post.
  • Fast to Create: Reels don’t have to be complicated! I’m talking 10 minutes to create a reel that can generate income for you. Forget spending hours making one post that gets 5 likes—reels are your new best friend for efficiency.

One of the best parts? You don’t even need to show your face or create complex content. In my 4-Day Live Event, I’ll show you exactly how to create reels that generate money without spending hours editing or scheduling everything a month in advance.

Step 3: How My Reels Generated $1,200 Each

Now, let’s get into the juicy part—how my reels made $1,200 each in August.

It wasn’t luck or just great timing. The reason my reels converted into income is because I have a series of evergreen sales funnels set up behind the scenes. These funnels work for me 24/7, automatically nurturing potential students and leading them to purchase my offers.

Here’s the basic breakdown of how it works:

  • Lead Magnet: I start with a freebie (aka lead magnet) that addresses a problem my audience is struggling with. For example, I offer a free guide or mini-course to get them hooked.
  • Sales Funnel: Once they sign up for the freebie, my email sequence kicks in. These emails aren’t just random—they’re designed to build trust and guide them towards purchasing my offer.
  • Sales Page: I have a sales page that answers all their questions and makes it a no-brainer to buy.
  • Offer: The offer is irresistible, priced correctly, and easy to enroll in, making it an easy decision for my audience to purchase.

This is why each reel generated $1,200. My content leads people into my sales funnel, and the funnel does the rest of the work.

Step 4: What Content Should You Create?

If you’re feeling stuck on content ideas, I’ve got something for you—one ChatGPT prompt that will generate 250 content ideas for reels. Yes, 250!

But here’s the deal: Stop overthinking it. The best reels are simple, honest, and to the point. Don’t try to educate your audience with every post. People don’t need to be educated to buy—they need to feel connected to you and understand how you can help them.

Instead of endless tutorials or facts, start sharing your opinions and experiences. What transformations have you achieved in your own life that you can help others with?

Step 5: Analyze Your Insights

You’ve posted a reel—now what?

It’s time to look at your insights. Don’t just post and forget about it. Dive into the data to see which content is performing well. Check your engagement, reach, saves, and most importantly, whether your reel is reaching non-followers. This will help you understand what’s working and what isn’t, so you can keep improving your strategy.

Remember, don’t just follow trends for the sake of it. Focus on what actually converts your audience into paying clients.

Step 6: Why You Need Evergreen Funnels to Make Money

Here’s the real secret to my success—evergreen funnels.

An evergreen funnel allows you to make money on autopilot. Once it’s set up, you can literally make sales while you sleep or take a month off. This is how I made those $1,200 per reel without actively selling anything in real-time.

If you’re serious about building a sustainable yoga business, you need to set up your own evergreen funnel. During my 4-Day Live Event starting on September 30th, I’ll walk you through exactly how to create a funnel that works for you 24/7.
