5 Helpful Tips to Boost Engagement with your audience on one of the hottest apps in the Social Media world.
Ask Questions that Require Feedback: When you post on Instagram you are most likely to engage a viewer by asking a question in the caption or story. When IG viewers scroll, a question at the beginning is more likely to grab their attention and make them want to reply to it. Ask them something that will help you understand their POV or what they are looking for while sticking to the relevance of the post.
The Poll Function: Polls are fun and a great way to interact with your followers. People love giving their opinions, polls on various topics are a great way to engage viewers and make them potential followers of your brand.
