We have all heard of Instagram, but are you using it as part of your social media strategy? Instagram is a photo and video sharing app used on mobile devices. Unlike Facebook, it is a visual platform, you do not need a lot of text on Instagram, rather, share using #hashtags.
The latest data from Statista tells us that Instagram now has over 1 billion monthly active users globally, with 112MM users in the U.S. in 2020 . Instagram has become more popular than ever with the launch of Stories in 2016. Today they boast more than 500MM daily Stories users. Stories have an interesting feature; they disappear after 24 hours. How is that valuable to you? You can use Stories to create a sense of urgency. A user has to respond in 24 hours, or the content will be gone. Create urgency, then follow up.
