Description

Spice up your Instagram stories and grow your creative business!

I started using Instagram 3 years ago, and it quickly became my top social media channel to connect with my fans and followers.

In the beginning, I focused mostly on Instagram posts, but when Instagram overhauled Stories and made it such a cool experience, I realized that it’s an awesome way to connect and engage with my almost 150,000 followers even more. 

In this class, I will share with you 10 Instagram Stories ideas you can use to spice up your Instagram profile, engage with your followers, and grow your creative (or another type of) business. 

+ ☆ BONUS ☆ – 30+ creative Story Highlights covers
+ ☆ BONUS ☆ – 10+ creative Stickers

You will learn hands-on tips and tricks on how to record, zoom and use the grid, how to use the markers and text tools to the full potential,  how to make your stories more fun with stickers and gifs.

I will share how you can engage Instagram’s algorithm using advanced features like Instagram live, filters, reels, and boomerangs. And you will also learn how to engage and grow your community using features like polls, questions, quizzes, challenges, and re-shares. 

Instagram stories will help you:

  • Maintain visibility in your followers’ feed, because Instagram shows them first
  • Stay top of mind of your followers, because you can share them on a daily basis 
  • Connect with your followers on a deeper level, because while you share stories of your life, they get to know you much better and create a better bond with you. 

Are you ready to spice up your Instagram stories and grow your community?
