Your Instagram highlights are one of the first things people see when they click on your profile. You should be using them to show social proof of your business and who you are to your followers and users. Instagram stories disappear after 24 hours, but Instagram highlights permanently live on your profile. That’s why you should be strategic with how you use them and what you put in them. They are a great way to build relationships, engage with potential customers, and drive sales.
So let’s create categories, design branded highlight covers, and update our Instagram highlights
