That's what we're saying 👏 A business should ALWAYS express their passions and core values. In fact, whatever that growing business is passionate about should always be transparent and shines through whatever they are promoting or selling. When marketing, the focus should always revolve around educating and inviting users within your target audience to share the same passion as you. 😊 Do you agree? Comment below! 👇

When it comes to getting to know your audience, its time to dive deeper. 🏊 While Instagram makes it easy to look at the general statistics of your followers such as age, audience and location within the app, you’ve got to look more closely than subsurface statistics. 🔍 For any business to grow it is extremely important to take the time to interact with your audience, this can be done in a number of ways such as using polls, questionnaires, or responding to comments and dm’s. The main goal of these interactions with your audience should always be to learn more about their purchasing behavior such as where they shop and why they shop at certain places. Interacting with your audience not only gives you insight into the minds of the consumer, but it also is an opportunity for free feedback as well as boosts your profile in the algorithm. A win-win! 👏 Lets chat! 🗣️

Consistency is 🔑 Yep, that's right, if you want your social media to grow and actually benefit your business, you need to be consistent. 3 of the main areas to focus on being consistent with are: Posting- For you to grow a loyal following you have to show up every day. If your followers do not trust that you will provide consistent content and engage with others, people will begin to unfollow you. Remember, if you aren’t there for your followers, they won’t be there for you. Voice- Any business needs to maintain the same voice throughout all of their posts. This voice consistently will create a strong brand identity and let your followers know what type of personality and content they will be getting if they continue to follow you. Aesthetic- Keeping a consistent aesthetic includes providing high-quality, on-brand content that matches the vibe of the rest of your posts. Who doesn’t love an aesthetically pleasing feed?

It has been long overdue, but last week Instagram finally made it easy for users to create spaces in between paragraphs, with the click of the ‘return button’. 👏 While something so simple as creating a gap in between paragraphs might sound simple, in the past Instagram has made it quite tedious for users to do, with many seeming to never get it right. Why is spacing your captions out so important you may ask? By adding line breaks in between chunks of your writing, you are more likely to grab people’s attention and get people to focus on what you are saying rather, than just scrolling past an ominous, lengthy paragraph. 👀 Are you as excited about this new feature as us? Comment below! 👇

With over 500 million active users on Instagram, people and brands are always looking for ways to stand out and increase engagement on their platform. One feature people have consistently received positive results from is the use of carousels, a multi-picture, or video post. Not only does using carousels allow brands to convey a deeper message to followers, but it also has been reported to increase user engagement dramatically. In fact, according to SocialInsider, "Carousel posts get the highest engagement rates (1.92%), compared to 1.74 and 1.45 for single post images and videos. Additionally, when users add more than 3 photos to the carousel, the average engagement rate rises more. However, the highest average engagement reported occurs when images and videos are combined, with a 2.33% engagement rate, almost DOUBLE the average of single posts.👏 So what are you waiting for?
