instagram stories close friends

How Marketers and Influencers can use Instagram’s Close Friends feature to their advantage.

This past week, Instagram’s Close Friends feature for Insta stories rolled out. You may have noticed that extra button when posting your latest story, or you may have accidentally clicked it several times thinking it was the “Your Story” button like I did! This new update allows you to give exclusive viewership access to only those on your hand-selected list. Each close friends update appears right in line with the rest of your Instagram story, but only your close friends can see the stories you post specifically for their eyes only. At first glance I ignored it and went about my day, then much like Raven Baxter when she has a vision, my marketing light bulb went off and I started to realize the potential this new feature had for influencers, micro influencers, marketers, social media managers and beyond. To the everyday user, this might just seem like an attempt for a Snapchat crossover or a pointless addition to the platform, but I see this as an opportunity online community influencers and managers can surely take advantage of. via GIPHY Here are three creative ways to use Instagram’s Close Friends Feature   Influencer Communities = Instagram’s Close Friends list.

2 Steps To Social Synergy

Making your social media cohesive to your social setting. How do you get seamless branding through your social media platforms and your actual social setting? Whether your social setting be a shopping center, amusement park, or concert, how do you do it? Well, synergy. Creating synergy through both social media and social settings will create consistency for your brand. A simple definition of Synergy is the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents. Which is what you want your social media and venue to do. You want them to work together to increase brand awareness and sell your product or service. But I like to think of word synergy in a naive manner. If you want to compose synergy then your social environment and social media should have, get this, similar energy = synergy. Your social media should reflect the feel, atmosphere, and personality of the environment your customer would be walking in to. It creates a wholesome branding. Here are two ways to implement synergy. In a recent Sprout Social session, Museum of Ice Cream’s head of content and social, Madison Utendahl, spoke about how creating content online should inspire action offline. Right off

CREATING CONTENT FOR YOUR AUDIENCE The content that you produce you be repeatable in a serial fashion to help you build a fanbase Content needs to give something to the viewer. People consuming your content should feel that it represents them. Your company will often be secondary Will people share your content? Why? What will they write about it if they do? WHAT DOES THIS CONTENT LOOK LIKE? Your content should.. Evoke emotional response Be useful and practical Be upbeat Help those who share it build their relationships Carry issues that are relevant to your audience Define people who share it   UTILIZE VIDEO Video helps almost every aspect of social engagement Well produced videos in the 80 second range with an attention grabber in the first 3 seconds care optimal HOW TO GET PEOPLE TO CLICK THROUGH YOUR CONTENT Okay, great you’re putting out excellent content, now how do you get people to interact with it?
