The 10K math: Starting ~500 followers. Need 9,500 new followers in 90 days = 106 new followers per day average. With Reels getting 36% more reach than other formats, 3 Reels/week + 5 collabs total + 4 Trial Reels = achievable at 2–3% conversion from reach to follow. Tamil+English captions increase engagement 3× vs English-only for Tamil Nadu audience — this is the multiplier that makes 10K realistic.
