Types of Content to Post to Spice Up Your Instagram Feed

If you have been creating the same type of content for a while you can feel yourself slowly becoming stagnant. Maybe that’s with your ideas, your engagement or even your motivation.

But let’s go back to basics for a second. Your social media content should express your business and what you stand for. Go back through your market research and see if you can look at it from a different angle. How have your customers changed/ what are their behaviours like in the day-day? I think it’s also time to remind you that only 25% of your content should be related to selling something. The other 75% should be content your customers can relate to or learn something from.

Instagram Reels

Now we all know TikTok has taken the world by storm. But Instagram actually has its own version of this on its platform. If you’re not looking to venture to a completely different platform and build your following up again then Instagram Reels will be a perfect option for you. You could follow fun trends, post behind the scenes or even go all out and create videos talking about your products/ services (people love to see whos behind the brand)

Carousels

Old but gold. Instagram Carousels are a great way to show a collection of images you may not want to post on its own. You could use this feature to tell a story of how you got to the finished product or even a before and after post. This is a great way to show your audience all the hard work that goes into your product or service. This can create a sense of authenticity and really help to humanise your brand. Which can result in a better customer relationship.

Collaboration Posts

Instagram Collabsare a fairly new feature. Instagram has introduced a feature where you can collaborate with other Instagram accounts. Use this feature to inspire you to collaborate with other companies and work with other creatives. They could be within your industry or it could complement your work. Instagram Collabs gives full credit to everyone involved while improving the reach, brand awareness, and engagement of every piece of collab content you share.
