New Feature: Rumble Pages (Minisite)

When you have a business, you always think of growing and promoting your product or service. We are pushed towards marketing like an advertisement, social media promotions, and product websites. But what if you’re creating that page on your own? Being a one-man business is tough. That’s why we’ve added a new feature at your expense. We call it “Pages” and it works as a minisite.

We’re not saying that this only works for a one-man company. It can also be used by individuals who are not really talented in using computers. You can use this mini website any way you like.

What is a minisite?

You may have heard about websites, but have you heard about this so-called minisite? Well, if you combine mini and website, you get minisite. A minisite is a mini version of a website. Usually, a minisite is a page describing a product, company, or service.

So, now you can create your own “CHAT” page in the cloud.

Is a minisite for you?

If you’re a small business owner, you can consider making a chat page for your site. This can include a few details about your company, what you do, what your product is all about, how you started, etc.

Creating your own minisite (page)

In this section, we’ll show you the steps you need to know in creating your own miniature website. You’ll be surprised at how easy it is!

  • First, you need to register to RumbleTalk. Just go to our website and click “Sign up.”
  • Second, on your admin panel, you will see “Pages.” Click that and you’ll be redirected to another page. This is what we call a minisite.

New Feature: New chat menu

We’re back and we’ve upgraded our chat menu! The new chat menu has a lot of added features, so read on to know what’s new.

We reduced the number of icons in the menu and moved them to a clearer menu bar. This allows us to add more options to better chat control.

The new look of the chat menu

In the old look of the chat menu, you’ll see that the settings are all lined up at the bottom part of the users’ list. There is no text or description unless you hover your mouse on each icon.

The new menu is a small window with all the important features that users ask us.

With our users’ suggestions, we made a new look for the chat menu. This includes the old setting functionality and more. Take a look at what we’ve done!

In addition to that, the new chat menu looks a bit different for admins and non-admins. Admins have now the option to MUTE all. Here’s how it looks like.

ADMIN MODE

See the difference between the new chat menus? Non-admin users don’t have the option to activate admin mode. As admins, only they can change that chat mode to admin mode.

Admin mode will stop everyone from typing. Only admins can type at this moment.

To know more about admin mode, you can check our previous blog.

Muting sound

The Mute sounds option. This is the option to mute the sound of all notifications.

  • First, you need to open your chat. See the gear button below? This is your chat menu. You will see the different settings you can change.
  • To change the settings of your sound notification, just click the slide. Green means it’s activated.

Private message muting pop-up

This means that, even if you receive private messages, the private chat won’t pop-up, instead you will see a red number next to the user icon indicating he sends you a message (or more).

How do you do it?

  • To change the private chat popup settings behavior, slide to the left the private chat popup slide. As with the previous setting, the green color means it’s activated.

Changing font size

This is another feature we’ve added in the chat menu. Why do you need to increase or decrease the font size? It’s because not all people have 20/20 vision. Some are near-sighted, while others are far-sighted. Therefore, changing font sizes is our way to be inclusive of people with visual impairment.

You’ve already seen the font settings above. It’s the settings with the plus and minus buttons. This is what you use to increase and decrease the font size, respectively.

How will this feature help you? Personally, I’m a near-sighted person. However, I like to keep my font size small. I just like how the way it looks.

News and updates

This is just a small portion of the updates that we’ve made in the chat menu and admin panel. There’s more to come. From small to big changes, we are constantly improving our service. Our blog lets you know what those changes are and when they’re live. So, always check it out and bookmark it on your browser. You’ll be one of the people that know about it first!

How Instagram influencers can make a living with a fan group chat

Thinking about how other Instagram influencers can make hundreds to thousands through social media? What can you do to up your game?

There are several ways Instagram influencers can make money only.

  • They can promote a brand for a retainer.
  • They can promote affiliate products and get a percentage.

We would like to offer a unique way for Instagram influencers where they can get substantial recurring payments. We named this option mini-sites with a chat.

Let me explain, so grab some coffee or tea, because I’ll share all the necessary details you need to do to accomplish it.

First, talk as an Instagram influencer

fan group chat

Before you can make a fan group chat, you need to establish yourself to your audience. So, how do you achieve this?

Communication is the answer.

On your Instagram account, talk to your followers as if you’re already long-time buddies. This is the best way to establish a long and meaningful relationship.

While that’s happening, you will see the difference in how your followers connect with you and you can then make your approach. Introducing a mini-site fan group chats with the ability to charge a subscription entrance fee.

So, what can you do on your own fan group chat?

  • Create your own fan space in the cloud.
  • Associate this space (page) to your Instagram.
  • Promise to share important details/inside scoops, or even personal secrets and experiences in the chat.
  • Anyone that will join the chat will need to pay a subscription to be able to login to the chat.
  • You get a steady income from your loyal audience.

So, how can you accomplish all that?

  • First, create a page.

To create a page, you need to sign up on the RumbleTalk website. This is the tool that you’re going to use to create your fan group chat.

After that, log-in to your admin panel and go to “Page.”

Instagram influencers

Change any design or description that you would like on your fan group chat. This can be a link to your YouTube channel, share buttons for Facebook and Twitter, and even a link to your blog if you have one.

Now that I’m done sharing the basics, I can teach you how you can monetize your fan group chat. Instagram influencers can’t always just make money from ads, sponsored posts, or affiliate products. You need to step up your game if you want to maximize your profit.

  • Set a subscription.

Your fan group chat can be monetized through a subscription fee. In order to do that, you need to change your paywall settings.

First, go to “Monetize Settings” on your admin panel.

Instagram influencers

Then, set the subscription fee you want. Remember to know your worth and define prices that are neither too low or too high. It’s also advisable to choose if your followers can pay monthly or annually.

  • Add it to your influencer’s description and posts.

The last and final step is to add it to your Instagram bio and posts. Link your fan group chat, talk about it, and make it something that your followers will be interested about.

You can post the link on your Instagram stories as well. They can swipe up and check out the link to your fan group chat.

What are the rates I can charge my audience?

Your call, you decide what you want to collect and how often.
Normally, Instagram influencers have different rates and it’s all according to these factors:

  • Follower size (the more followers, the more you can charge)
  • Engagement rate
  • Rate of influencer via specialty

On a report by Benjamin Chacon on Later, engagement is still the king for Instagram influencer marketing. So, it’s not all about the number of followers.

The factor percentage is as follows:

  • Engagement – 79%
  • Quality of followers – 70%
  • Industry or niche – 67%
  • Number of followers – 56%
  • Budget – 46%
  • Location – 33%

See what I mean by communication is key?

When you have a high engagement rate, it means that you know how to persuade your audience and they listen to you. If they don’t actually trust you, then why would they buy the products you sponsor or listen to your advice?

How about those with a lower number of followers?

If you’re on the lower side of the Instagram followers, let’s say, 1,000 to 100,000 followers, then you can use your strong engagement rate to earn up to $300-$400 per post (from vendors).

However, posting on Instagram isn’t the only thing you can do. You can also do the following:

  • Make use of brand promotion via Stories (more posts, more money).
  • Mention a specific brand on a caption.
  • Promotion of brand giveaway
  • Invite another influencer, brand, follower, or a friend to take over your account for a different perspective, e.g., BTS footage of you.

All of these can help you gain a following. Next, you can also introduce your fan group chat to your Instagram posts and Stories.

How much money can you earn as an Instagram influencer?

“Making $500 on Instagram? How can I start doing that? Is there any way I can join this club?”

Well, I’m glad that you asked that.

There’s more than enough money and space for everyone.

You don’t even need 50,000 followers just to reach those numbers.

Why you need RumbleTalk Pages to increase income as Instagram influencers

fan group chat

Think of RumbleTalk Pages as your portfolio.

Not many Instagram influencers know about this hidden option.

This is a great way to show your followers who you are and what your influence is. It’s also the solution to making your Instagram income go through the roof.

Lastly, here’s what you should add on your fan group chat:

  • Description of what you do

This speaks for itself. Add a description of what you do on your Instagram and who you are.

  • What your followers can expect

You can also add what your followers would receive when they subscribe to your fan group chat. If brands visit your page, then they’ll also get a sens of how you engage with your fans, leading to collaboration.

  • Share buttons and other social media pages

Enable your share buttons so your fans can share them to other fans as well, or even new followers. Second, you can also add a YouTube link to your channel or a video of yours. This can help increase views and subscribers.
