    You know the nature of this topic can attract many creators to just create meaningless content farming for views and just a lot of talk and not concrete content. This right here though is definitely a breath of fresh air. Very precise and concrete information conveyed in a decent manner. Appreciate it. Thank you.

    Fantastic tips!!! Thank you for your generosity and consistent awesomeness!
  • Always excellent video Thank you for information Pray for your whole socialmedia examiner family god bless you
  • The countdown feature is very useful and engaging. IG stories and live videos are so important, too. To sell products online I regularly go live on IG and FB. For example, to have a high-quality live video I go live from my desktop using YellowDuck .tv that allows me to go live on IG from my PC or Mac.

  • I just join this online business and I need to promote on IG stories but how on my first post?
  • @homewoodnursery
    Good tips! For some reason when I try to add Highlights, "Next" is grayed out so I can't select it. Weird. :-/
  • How do you create Highlights for About and Testimonials? I can't find it anywhere on my profile. very confused!
