# Growth guide: grow a new account with PostOnce

> A 30-day plan to grow new TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook accounts: set up, warm up, find a format that gets views, then let PostOnce post everywhere.

New accounts grow in four stages. Set the account up, warm it up by hand, find a kind of post that gets views, then let PostOnce copy every post to your other platforms.

<Note>
  **Already getting steady views?** Accounts with a posting history and healthy views don't need a warm-up. Skip to [Find a format that works](/help/growth-guide/find-a-format) or [Scale to more platforms](/help/growth-guide/scale). Only brand-new accounts, or accounts that haven't posted in months, need the first two stages.
</Note>

## The first 30 days

<Steps>
  <Step title="Day 1: set up">
    Fill in the profile and bio, and switch Instagram to a **Creator** or **Business** account. See [Warm up a new account](/help/growth-guide/warm-up-accounts#the-warm-up-day-by-day).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Days 2 to 7: warm up">
    Use the account like a viewer in your niche for about 15 minutes a day, then post a few times by hand. See [Warm up a new account](/help/growth-guide/warm-up-accounts).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Days 8 to 30: post every day and find what works">
    Remake formats that already went viral in your niche, post at least once a day and keep what beats your median. See [Find a format that works](/help/growth-guide/find-a-format).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Once views are steady: post everywhere">
    Let a workflow copy every video to your other platforms, make the call to action fit each one, and add accounts. See [Turn views into customers](/help/growth-guide/views-to-customers) and [Scale to more platforms](/help/growth-guide/scale).
  </Step>
</Steps>
