Building a profitable brand on Instagram, finding your ‘zone of genius’ & creating engaging content with Ina
Ina is an online entrepreneur and property investor. Through her signature program, The Content Accelerator, she helps new entrepreneurs to start a profitable coaching and consulting business.
Ina started off investing in property before transitioning to an online model. Before setting off on her own, she worked with several large property businesses to transform their social media presence.
She is now passionate about helping other property entrepreneurs to build a high cashflow trading business, the profits from which can be used to re-invest into property. Ina’s first 5 students generated over £500k between them from Instagram alone, and she’s excited to impact even more lives.
In her free time Ina loves to go to the gym, ski, read about marketing psychology, and play with stranger’s dogs.

Tej graduated from King's’ College London with a BSc Biochemistry in 2014, he then pursued a career in Medical Education and Marketing. Soon after his second job… he was fired! A moment of relief and freedom was what he felt, not sure what his mother felt when he told her he was jobless at 23…
He then went in search of a more ethical path, a business he could set up where the reward was equal to the work put in. “If they are making pounds, why am I making pennies?” - was his thought process, not happy with slow progression and bureaucracy (& having to wear smart shoes everyday). This lead him to opening a Recruitment business (not sure where the ethics went) which doubled in profit every year, for 4 years. He hated it. Golden handcuffs they call it.
Fortunately, he used the cash he’d built up from that business, to educate himself in Property Investing. Soon, he’d stopped the business and transitioned into Property Investment full time. He then had a slow start -
Purchasing 15 properties in his first 9 months, using over £650,000 of Investor Finance, he built a £1,200,000 property portfolio and created £30,000 of profit from flips. This gave him ‘financial freedom’, but it was the most stressful period of his life. Growing quickly is very painful.
Let’s not forget that his Podcast grew to be the most-reviewed UK Property Podcast, peaking at 4,000 unique downloads per episode.
His Podcast (Tej Talks) now sits at 660,000 downloads in over 100 countries and has 489 reviews, rated 5/5.

Cheat Code for 2026: Handling Uncertainty
11:59|2026 is not going to reward the people waiting for certainty. It’s going to reward the people who can move clearly, even when the full picture isn’t there.Most people stay stuck because they want guarantees before they act. In business, that usually means missed chances, slow decisions, and getting overtaken by people with less talent but more conviction.The cheat code is simple: get comfortable making solid decisions with incomplete information, back yourself, and adjust fast. Uncertainty isn’t the problem. Weak decision-making is.7 Things I Look For When Buying A Business [M&A]
11:30|Everyone asks what revenue the business does. That’s usually the least important part.Before I buy anything, I’m looking at the structure behind the numbers. Can it run without the owner? Are the clients actually worth having? Is there real profit, or just smoke and mirrors? What happens if one customer leaves? Are the staff stable or a revolving door? And is there hidden upside… or hidden problems waiting for me after completion?Most deals look great on paper. Very few hold up when you dig underneath.Buy well and you build momentum.Buy wrong and you inherit stress, thin margins, and a business that depends entirely on you.
