This week’s social media insight is about using Instagram stories to boost your business.
Do you use stories on Instagram?
There are 5 reasons here why you should:-
- You can now add music, so you’re adding another sense into the emotional mix
- You can add gifs, which add personality and humour to your posts
- You can add questions and polls to boost engagement.
- You can show the behind the scenes, authentic you rather than styled perfection.
- You can save your favourite stories into themed highlights so they last longer than just 24 hours (if you want!)
There are examples from 3 companies; kvell a creative studio, the barbers Rosewood Cutters plus LA bagel company Pops’s Bagels to demonstrae how these brands use Instagram stories to boost their businesses.
