You&#8217;ve added a custom cover to your Highlight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still not sure how you would use Highlights properly for your account? We\u2019re going to provide you with quite a few tips that creators and brands can use to leverage the Instagram Highlight feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">11 Tips<\/span>\ud83d\udca1for Using Instagram Highlights as a Creator or Brand<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><b>Ready to make the most out of your Highlights?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Let&#8217;s dive right in.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Categorize Your <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Stories and Make Collections<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every Highlight should be a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">category<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You don\u2019t want to have a \u201ccatch-all\u201d Highlight because it will confuse followers. Instead, let\u2019s assume that you post:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Recipes<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Workout routines<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Inspirational Stories<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>You can make categories for all of these Stories as a Highlight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It&#8217;s better to have a lot of collections that followers can look through on their own than adding random ones to a large collection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Businesses will do this with a Highlight for each product type, announcements and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Share <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Announcements<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><b>Major announcements deserve some love as a Highlight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For example, businesses will use this feature to alert the world about their new:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Products<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Locations<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Menu items (restaurants)<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Team members<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a normal creator and not an influencer, you can make an announcement Highlight that you can use to tell your followers about something important to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Explain <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Who You Are and Why People Should Follow<\/span> You<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An <\/span><b>About Me Highlight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a good option for creators who want to tell the world who they are. When people see your content and go to your profile, they may not follow you because they don\u2019t know:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Who you are<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> What you offer<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Content you create<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But you can clear up all of this confusion with a well-planned <\/span><b>About<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Highlight. <a href=\"https:\/\/viralyft.com\/blog\/how-to-make-instagram-stories\">Create Stories<\/a> and add them to the Highlight that explains everything about you or your brand. Your Highlight may mean the difference between someone following you and tapping off of your account.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Create Resource <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Collections<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><b>Resource collections are great options for anyone who is trying to make a difference with educational or informative content<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can create Highlights for things such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Tips on using your product<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> How to eat healthy<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Step-by-step instructions on how to use your product<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Etc.<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating resource collections is a go-to option for all account types and a good option if you\u2019re trying to teach anyone <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">anything.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Answer <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">FAQs<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><b>FAQs as Story Highlights can go along perfectly with your About Me Highlight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can add questions from followers and add them to your Highlights. By doing this, you can:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Reduce the number of times you need to answer the same question<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Help people get to know you and\/or your brand<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Build trust and authority<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a brand that is trying to explain your product or reduce the number of service calls you have, you can also use FAQs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. Showcase Your <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Reviews or Testimonials<\/span> as a Business<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reviews and testimonials give your business the social proof and credibility customers look for when deciding whether to make a purchase. Why not show them off in your Highlights?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Showcasing testimonials and reviews in your Instagram Highlights will put them front row and center.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone who visits your profile can quickly and easily see the feedback and reviews left by your customers. Those reviews and testimonials can help you build trust and increase sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. Showcase Your <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Team if You Have One<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re a brand or a creator, you can use Highlights to showcase your team and help your followers get to know you a little bit better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For example, if you&#8217;re a creator, you can showcase your:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Camera team<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Editor<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Social team<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Anyone other team member who helps with your content creation<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a brand, you can showcase different team members, their achievements and their roles in the company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Showcasing your team in your Highlights can:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Build trust and credibility<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Help your followers get to know you and your team<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your audience will be more likely to engage with your account or make a purchase if they trust you and feel like they know the people behind your brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. Create Lead <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Magnets<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lead magnets help you transform prospects into leads. The goal is to convince them to sign up for a product trial or your list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why not share your lead magnet in an Instagram Highlight? Creators and brands often share links to their lead magnets in their Stories. <\/span><b>Turning that Story into a Highlight allows you to reach more people over a longer period of time.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that you give your Highlight an attention-grabbing name, so prospects will be more likely to check it out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. Show off Your <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Recent Products or Services<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The release of a new product or service is an exciting time, but it\u2019s easy for feed posts to get lost in the mix. Sure, you can pin your post, but it\u2019s easy for people to overlook them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And most brands will announce new launches in their Stories. Why? Because their followers will be more likely to view their Story content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But the temporary nature of Stories makes them a poor choice for long-term promotion of new products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s where Highlights come in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Highlights are one of the first things people see when they visit your profile. It&#8217;s the ideal space to promote your recent products or services.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. Behind the Scenes <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">(BTS)<\/span> Collections<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Highlights are the perfect opportunity to take people behind the scenes and give them a candid look at how you operate. <\/span><b>Behind-the-scenes content can help you build credibility, establish yourself as an authority and humanize your brand.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>What type of behind-the-scenes content can you share?<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Your design or creative process<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Your team sharing a good laugh<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Bloopers from your latest video<\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People love those raw moments that you can\u2019t stage or script, and that\u2019s exactly what behind-the-scenes Highlights will give your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>11. <span style=\"color: #5339d3;\">Inspire<\/span> Others<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><b>Instagram Highlights are a great way to inspire other creators or customers (if you\u2019re a brand).<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-right\" style=\"color:#5339D3\"><\/i> Brands can create Highlights to show customers creative and fun ways to use their products.
