By now, you probably aware that Instagram is now an integral part of social media strategy. Or if you don’t, you probably now thinking to create an Instagram account for your business. But, hold a sec, I’m here to keep you informed and stop you from making any mistakes in Instagram business.
Instagram Don’ts
Boring Bio
I mean, come on, that’s the first thing people notice. A good bio is more than just your brand name and URL of your business. It’s an opportunity to tell your followers who you are and what you do. So, choose wisely as you only get 150 characters and make it count!
Cap that Caption
They say a picture is worth thousand words, but that doesn’t mean you can ignore the beauty of caption. Although, Instagram is a visual platform, but it doesn’t mean you can just put images there. The caption beneath them is almost as important. Whatever you do, it must highlight your business and don’t forget to add few relevant hashtags!
Don’t Hashtag Too Much
You probably think that I’m a bipolar. I said to add few hashtags before, but here I against what I said. As you can see on my previous post here, hashtag is do important as it bring twice engagement to your business more than you imagine. But, over hashtag in your post is a no no and ultimately necessary. Not to mention, it makes an eyesore to the viewers.
Too Catalog-Like
This is one of good example. She have a white background on her feed, but still add a few colors.
I’m not gonna lie, it is eye-soothing to see consistent white background in all over your business Instagram post. But, I also gonna tell you that it’s hard to stand out as people doing it too. To those who obsess with Internet knows that we love colorful and photos that bring lifestyle. Do you know what this means? I mean, let you creativity loose and pop up some color! Highlight your business and make people recognize you as who you are.
I hope after this post you can be enlightened on how to start your Instagram business profile. You might want to check our post cover on Successful Instagram Business. I suggest, you should check that out as it will benefit you in the near future. Thank you!
