Today we’d like to introduce you to Inside History. They and their team shared their story with us below:
Inside History began as a friendly challenge between myself and a friend. We both started an account on TikTok to see who could get the most followers in a week. My friend only gained a few followers, but I gained 10,000 followers. Shortly after, I created the Inside History Instagram to capitalize on this success. The focus on Inside History is essentially the study of past events and anything that has happened from the inception of time up until now in the 21st century. Fast forward to the start of 2022, I received an offer from Doing Things Media, a widely popular media and entertainment company with 65 million followers to join them. Inside History then became part of Doing Things Media and began to take off as a fully-fledged brand. Inside History has focused more on incorporating current & social events to make the content more comedic but also insightful while remaining true to the term “history.”
We all face challenges, but looking back, would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The journey has been a very positive experience but also a divisive one. The content on Inside History has always been construed as a mix between history and non-history, and it has become difficult to convince everyone that 21st-century events are historical events in the making.
Thanks – so, what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I’m a skilled content creator, growing with an average 50k-100k followers a month for Inside History. The journey has been awesome as well as lucrative. I’ve worked for Doing Things Media, was featured by Joe Rogan on his Instagram, became a contributor to History Photographed to name a few.
In terms of your work and the industry, what are some of the changes you are expecting to see over the next five to ten years?
No major shifts, except I think that the prospect of reels and video content will be widely promoted across many social media platforms. I also project that AI technology will play a huge role in terms of text generation and becoming a gateway to more content.
