FYI Carmarthen hosted a workshop with Sarah Macdonald last week, on Instagram Inspiration.
About a dozen of us got a most thorough and entertaining trip around Instagram, with loads of pointers and useful tips.
Top priority needs to be your clickable link in your bio, and this can change according to what you are currently promoting. This is your only permitted link to take people off Instagram to your home base.
We learnt lots about curating our posts and theming them and of course, that Instagram is all about the hashtags. Between 5 and 20 are a good number and Sarah gave us some sensible ideas about how to think creatively about these.
Instagram is gentler than Twitter, less news orientated than Facebook and if you're at all visually creative then it's a grand playground to connect with new customers, especially if you sell product of any description.
