Keys to Success

Tips for creating posts that stand out from the crowd.

1. BE CREATIVE

When telling your story, there are so many creative levers to pull (aspect ratio, location, ephemeral content, Cinemagraphs, Carousels) and tools to play with (Boomerang, Hyperlapse, face filters, drawing, emojis).

2. BE IMMERSIVE

Explore the storytelling capabilities of Instagram with stills, video, Stories and Instagram Live.

3. BE EMOTIVE

Focus on your craftsmanship and heritage, or look for that emotional connection and make your audience feel something.

4. IMAGE IS EVERYTHING

Acknowledge the power of pictures and embrace the platform’s uncluttered, highly visual environment.
