✨Follow for Instagram facts and tips for small business owners✨

Here are 3 Instagram myths that you need to stop believing today

❌: Success is only determined by likes and follower count.
✅: Myth! Likes and follower count is not the most reliable measure of success on Instagram. These vanity metrics might be great for influencers but they are not as important for business owners. Focus on more relevant metrics like link clicks, product page views, email button taps etc.

❌: You should never use scheduling apps.
✅: Myth! There is no reason why you shouldn't use scheduling apps to post your content! Scheduling apps are such a great tool that Facebook even created its own - Meta Business Suite. So go ahead and schedule your posts, reels and stories with your favourite scheduling app, just remember to be present and engage with your audience when your posts go live.

❌: You should post only reels.
✅: Myth! You should be using all the content formats that Instagram provides. While Reels are great for boosting visibility, other content formats like single posts, carousels, stories and lives can help you build a relationship with and nurture your already existing audience.
