Zach Benson - Staying at 5 Star Hotels for Free Using Instagram

The SocialRay Podcast: Stories of Entrepreneurs & Influencers

What if you could just use your Instagram to stay at five star hotels that usually cost $2000 a night for free? This sounds like a dream but it's reality for Zach Benson, a 31 year old entrepreneur who has built his social media agency company, traveled to over 50 countries teaching dance and social media, been on a TV dance show, and has even given a Tedx talk.

But he was not always the confident Zach he is today. He used to struggle pronouncing the letter "R" as a young student from Korea and was told by a teacher he would never overcome his speech impediment. For Zach, this devastated him and his self-confidence as a young student until he regained his confidence through his passion of dancing.

He has used his dance skills to travel around the world teaching dance and has even been on TV dance shows. He has also gotten into the world of social media and has formed a network of over 10 million followers in the travel niche which he uses to stay in five star hotels and resorts for free in exchange for promotions and social media services.

Zach run his own social media agency and has several courses about to launch teaching people how to travel around the world like he did using Instagram and teaching dance. Zach's commitment to never give up despite the circumstances has inspired me and hope that it will inspire you to continue on your path in life.
