The problem
Why it’s hard to grow a local Instagram following in the US
Your city is huge
A nail salon in Silver Lake needs customers from nearby neighborhoods, not followers scattered across the whole Los Angeles area. How far people will travel depends on the service, and that’s what defines your audience.
Ads stop when the budget does
Paid reach works, but you pay for every day of it. When you stop, the people you reached forget you as fast as they found you.
Cheap growth apps sell numbers
Follower packages and promises of thousands a month make the count look good. Your reach, comments and bookings stay where they were.
How it works
How we grow US Instagram accounts
- 01
We pick the accounts with you
Competitors, businesses in your neighborhood, creators your customers follow. You suggest or approve the list in your dashboard.
- 02
We interact from your account
Every day we follow, like and watch the stories of the people who follow those accounts, on your audience’s clock, not ours. The curious ones check out your profile and decide whether to follow you.
- 03
Track your progress
Your dashboard is available 24/7: your daily follower count, dated records of followers gained and lost, and your account status.
Where we work
The US audiences we can reach
We build your audience neighborhood by neighborhood in big cities, and city by city if you sell across a state or the whole country. Some examples:
New York and Los Angeles
In New York we start from the boroughs and neighborhoods your business serves: a restaurant in Williamsburg grows from people who follow Williamsburg and Greenpoint food accounts, a studio on the Upper West Side from Upper West Side wellness accounts. Across the Los Angeles area, neighborhoods like Silver Lake and Venice and nearby cities like West Hollywood and Pasadena are different worlds, so we treat them that way.
Austin and Texas
Austin’s East Side, South Congress and the Domain each have their own crowd; Houston, Dallas and San Antonio work the same way. If you sell across Texas, we widen to the cities your customers come from.
Miami
Wynwood, Brickell, Coral Gables and Miami Beach. Hospitality, beauty and fitness do well; bilingual audiences are fine too, since we also work in Spanish.
Chicago
Wicker Park, Lincoln Park, West Loop and Logan Square: strong neighborhood loyalty, which suits local businesses.
San Francisco Bay Area
The Mission, Hayes Valley, Oakland and Palo Alto. Good for studios, shops and creators with a local following.
Everywhere else
Seattle, Denver, Nashville, Atlanta, Boston or Phoenix. If your city or niche is too small to grow from, we’ll tell you before you pay.
Many of your new followers tend to be local, but we can’t guarantee where every one lives.
Results
What growth looks like
These examples come from client dashboards outside the United States, recorded over 49, 61 and 59 days respectively, so don’t read them as monthly forecasts for a U.S. business. Across our clients, average growth is around 390 followers a month, with a usual range of 300 to 800–900 depending on content and niche. We won’t promise you a thousand followers in your first month.

Support hours
When we answer, in your time zone
We answer WhatsApp messages, calls and emails every day, including holidays, from 7 a.m. to midnight Madrid time. For most of the year, that means:
| Time zone | We answer |
|---|---|
| Eastern (New York, Miami) | 1 a.m. – 6 p.m. |
| Central (Chicago, Austin) | Midnight – 5 p.m. |
| Mountain (Denver) | 11 p.m. (previous day) – 4 p.m. |
| Pacific (Los Angeles, Seattle) | 10 p.m. (previous day) – 3 p.m. |
Between the U.S. and European clock changes in March and in October/November, all four schedules start and end one hour later. Places that don’t observe daylight saving time, like most of Arizona, differ. The work on your account itself follows your audience’s hours.
Pricing for the US
€99 per month, billed in euros
U.S. clients pay €99 a month, with no VAT added to our invoice. At the European Central Bank rate on 13 November 2026, that was about $109.
We bill in euros. Pay by PayPal, which also takes US cards, or by international bank transfer; PayPal or your bank converts the dollars and may charge its own fee.

FAQ
Questions from US businesses
Do I need a U.S.-based agency to grow my local Instagram audience?
Not necessarily: where the agency sits doesn’t decide whether the service fits your business. Pleno is based in Madrid and works with businesses and creators across the U.S. Before you start, we assess your intended audience and explain our support hours, euro billing and what account access we need.
How much does it cost in dollars?
€99 a month, which was about $109 at the European Central Bank rate on 13 November 2026. We bill in euros with no VAT added to our invoice, and PayPal or your bank converts the dollars when you pay.
Can I pay with a US credit card?
Yes, through PayPal, which accepts US cards. You can also pay by international bank transfer. There’s no automatic billing: you pay each month only if you want to continue.
Can you target my neighborhood, not just my city?
Yes. We choose the accounts your audience comes from with you, by neighborhood and niche: a café in Williamsburg grows from people who follow Williamsburg businesses, not all of New York. Many of your new followers tend to be local, but we can’t guarantee where every one lives.
You’re in Spain. When do you answer?
Every day, including holidays, from 7 a.m. to midnight Madrid time: for most of the year that’s 1 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern, midnight to 5 p.m. Central, 11 p.m. to 4 p.m. Mountain and 10 p.m. to 3 p.m. Pacific, one hour later during the weeks between the U.S. and European clock changes. The work on your account follows your audience’s hours.
Is it legal and safe for my account?
Hiring a service to grow your Instagram is legal. What usually gets accounts into trouble is buying fake followers or spamming, and we do neither, but no service can guarantee that Instagram will never restrict an account. We need access to your account and explain the process, the security measures and how to remove our access on a call before starting. Pleno is independent of Instagram and Meta.
Do you also create my posts or run my ads?
Not with this plan. We bring the right people to your profile; your content is what convinces them to follow you.
Is there an audience for your US business?
Send us your Instagram account, your niche and your city. We’ll tell you honestly whether we can help.
