BUSINESS IDEAS FOR INSTAGRAM STORIES

Using Instagram Posts and stories can be a perfect way for your account to maximize visibility and, in exchange, get more followers. But is it impossible for you to come up with new thoughts about what to write in your stories?

Fear not - I'll send you nine Instagram Story ideas in this post that you can use for your brand or business.

Let’s start...


1. Go Alive

The first idea I want to bring out there for an Instagram story is to go live. Live videos have a lot of effects, and you can incorporate some of the concepts that we will explore later in this article using the live format.


2. Q&A's of Live Stories

Q&A's from Live Stories provide the viewers with so much meaning. You can make fans upload their questions beforehand and you can answer them in an Instagram Live post, or you can 'Go Live with a Pal' and select a viewer at a time to jump into the live-stream broadcast and ask questions. There are two options to build this for your company or company.


3. Live Stories with a Buddy

Getting others to join you is an alternative to being on Instagram Live alone (as noted above). The difference in this Instagram Live concept is to interview your target audience with an industry expert, or an influencer.

You can perform the interview on your own, or again, you can make your fans send questions in advance - you can also take questions during the broadcast while people type them.



4. Boost your website/blog post traffic.

Using Stories to advertise your latest blog posts, programs, or to push traffic to your website is a basic Instagram Story concept for your business.

If you have more than 10,000 fans, you will also have access to the "Swipe Up" feature, which helps you to connect inside the story itself, which can certainly be used to help you.


5. Behind the Scenes

As always, it is always a smart idea to send your fans behind the scenes or to give them a sneak preview of an upcoming campaign or function.

Via this, you can create exclusive content from the network, create awareness about your new projects and make the audience feel special.


6. Polling

There is a feature in Instagram Stories that challenges a Twitter feature I love: Instagram Poll Stickers. Now you can apply a question to your Instagram Story image or video with two answer choices - your followers just tap on the answer they would like to pick.

Polls are a perfect way to drum up your Instagram account interaction.


7. Days Oriented

Building a themed day is a simple way to be loyal and get the most out of Instagram posts. For instance, you could have a 'Tuesday Tip' theme, a day of the week where an influencer is spotlighted, a day where quotes are exchanged, or your Live Q&A day.

Getting a theme day (or multiple theme days) will help you produce bulk material, or at least be ready to have time invested on each particular day to post an Instagram Story.



8. Round-Ups/Lists

To build round-ups and charts, the Instagram Story style of clicking to get to the next screen is also fantastic.

Let your fans know what the best blog posts are, convert a blog post into an Instagram Story List, or place the spotlight on your last month's top favorite services. Mind keeping the audience brand-related and meaning-filled.


9. User Produced Content/Shout Outs Spotlight

If you're lucky enough to have loads of content created by users, you can use it in your Instagram stories as well.

You may also yell out your favorite accounts, pictures, or other similar brands via tales. This will help you develop your B2B connections, as well as let your audience know that what they share matters to you.


10. Neighborhood highlights

Regionally, is there an event occurring? Speak about it in a post on Instagram.

This is a good way to communicate with your audience - particularly if you have a company focused on your area. It also provides a perfect chance to use location-based hashtags and location stickers for marking places, all of which can help you gain more visibility.


11. Write articles.

The best way for your company to use Instagram Stories is to use the tool as a mini vlog. While this format seems laid back, it can fit just as well for a personality, or a B2C-based enterprise, in the B2Broom.

Taking your fans into your everyday life, explain your office, highlight workers, and have fun with the process. This tactic will help consumers get to know the person or persons behind the brand and incorporate those wonderful elements of empathy and individuality that draw your ideal clients and buyers.


General tips for more attention on Instagram Using Instagram Stories
