[159] 8 Instagram Updates You Need to Know: Carousels, Reels, Comments, Notes + More!

Hey Successful Hairstylists!!

This week we're talking about INSTAGRAM and all the juicy updates they've been adding! There has never been a better time to grow a business with FREE tools -- and knowing how to take advantage of all the different features can set you up for success!

I share...

• Why IG continues to be the best way to get new clients (in 30 mins/day)

• 8 of the latest Instagram updates to attract local people to find your page, follow you and book appointments! Carousels, Reels, Comments, Notes and more!

• My TOP IG features you must be using to build your business right now

There has NEVER been a better time to grow a business with FREE tools in the history of time (a little dramatic, I know). Instagram has very much leveled the playing field between large salons and independent hairstylists and have created so much opportunity for hair stylists to build a high-paying, loyal clientele quickly. Other marketing platforms (Google, Yelp, Referrals, Word of Mouth, Nextdoor, Style Seat) leave your growth completely in other peoples hands - while Instagram allows YOU to pro-actively impact your business without having to spend money on Advertising.

Instagram wants to be a hub for businesses to connect to consumers and so they are constantly adding new updates to create opportunities and keep people on their platform longer.

Here are some of the biggest Instagram Updates as of November 2024 that hairstylists should know!

1. CAROUSELS CAN NOW HAVE 20 SLIDES

2. CAROUSELS WITH MUSIC WILL BE PROMOTED AS A REEL ON THE EXPLORE PAGE AND IN THE ALGORITHM

3. YOU CAN PUBLICLY COMMENT ON STORIES AND THOSE COMMENTS WILL SHOW IN THE STORY

4. YOU CAN NOW HAVE MULTIPLE LINKS IN BIO

5. YOU CAN EDIT DMS

6. ADD NOTES TO A POST OR REEL THAT PEOPLE WHO FOLLOW YOU THAT YOU FOLLOW BACK CAN SEE

7. SCHEDULE POSTS AND REELS DIRECTLY FROM APP

8. ADVANCED META INSIGHTS
