Building a hardcore Instagram following isn’t such an easy task, especially when it involves millions of followers. But true influencers seem to have a way of getting it done and making it look easy as pie. Natalie Gauvreau has certainly made Instagram fame look fast, furious, and effortless.
Her 4.5 million followers just continue to grow and grow by the day. In fact, her page is one of the fastest growing in Instagram’s history.
Who is Natalie Gauvreau? She was raised in a small Canadian town about five hours north of Toronto. Her small town and large family, including five brothers and sisters, was a pivotal force in her life. But, if she wanted to further her career, she knew she’d have to leave her old life behind and claw her way to the top of a new one. For those not familiar with Miss Gauvreau, her entry to fame is thanks to her modeling chops, which really took off once she moved to Texas at just 21-years-old. Still, all the attention and life as a city girl remains a little novel, but she takes it all in stride. Once in Texas, she reached out to various brands and companies for work.
Her career blossomed with opportunity as she was finally able to showcase her bright personality, outgoing spirit, and hardcore drive for success. It wouldn’t be long before Hollywood noticed this stunning figure, which led to her being cast in very prominent roles in three different films. Of course, as a double threat, Natalie suddenly found herself on the radar of almost every agency and production company in the world. Meanwhile, her position on Instagram was also exploding with new fans, followers, and admirers. To date, she has 4.5 million followers, and they range in ethnicity, location, gender, socioeconomic status, and so forth.
Why do so many people from so many walks of life seem enthralled by this model? Her disposition as a go-getter attracts the dreamers. She’s succeeded where many others are still striving, but she fully recognizes that she’s far from perfect. Her Instagram page is decorated with aesthetically pleasing images that are as stunning to behold as they are inviting. She’s genuine, honest, open, and very straightforward with her content, but it’s all in a very relatable way that makes viewers pine for more. Perhaps, the biggest appeal is that her images offer a real-life glimpse into being Natalie Gauvreau.
She’s not shy about being her authentic self, including recognizing her own personal hangups, flaws, and shortcomings. She’s not shy about sharing that authentic self with others, either, which is refreshing in a Hollywood atmosphere that often follows the bandwagon of a perfection persona. Fans seem to eat up her honesty. Another big appeal is how approachable she is concerning her followers. A look through the threads shows how interactive she is with questions, suggestions, and general comments.
Gauvreau clearly demonstrates that her platform is both an investment in herself and in those looking up to her. The social media outlet connects her with fans, and it’s those fans who offer the young model a greater sense of being, belonging, and purpose within her successes. It’s refreshing to see Instagram used as an investment tool, a gratitude platform of pay-it-forward to others, an example of hard work and determination paying off, a visual interest beholding both beauty and flaws and successes and shortcomings. Now, that’s how to be a real influencer.
