Do you use instagram to connect with people?

[Zee]

So do you?

What's your experience? Is it worth the hassle? (for business )

Do you have an instagram that's already working for you?

 

[Nomad74]

No, I can't figure it out. I just be nice to everyone and the phone rings.

No. I dislike social media. The damage it has done to our generation isn't something I like to support. There are plenty of people who still function like human beings, and communicate in more healthy ways. I stay plenty busy without it.

Never, too many weird people on Instagram. Flakes playing in the sand or showing their knives.

I was expecting that...

I don't know of the value but it's takes so little effort. I have the images for Facebook or for Google My business.

I keep IG mainly for local friends and distant family.
A couple of you guys, as long as you behave.

Chavez usually only has one or two likes, so I feel sorry for him and add mine.

We use it for our retail it’s awesome. The problem is a service is not very interesting. It’s not IG that is failing it’s the content.

What is your instagram?

We use Instagram and have had some success with it. It's all about the hashtags, to be honest. That's how you reach new people.

A lady who works for the local news follows us and saw that our company dealt with water extraction. They ended up doing a story on our company all because of Instagram. So that was nice to have some free advertisement.

I like it because it's easy. I already have the content, so requires little extra effort.

Although because we don't have the following we do with Facebook, we don't get nearly the traction.

I put up a short video on IG last Friday and it has 23 views. Facebook has 326 views in the same time period. However since it takes so little effort I continue with IG.

You should be posting on instagram and have it set up to post on Facebook automatically. When the switch happens from FB to IG you will be ready. IG is dependent on activity, that is why your not seeing anything.

Different audience. I know many that have Facebook but no Instagram account. Facebook is generally the oldies and Instagram the youth. We had or have a Instagram widget on or Facebook page, it didn't seem to make much difference.

That's what I thought 2 years ago. IG is the new horizon. Don't just look at as a age thing you might miss the train.

Sani-Bright Instagram appears to have similar results to our page if not worse.

I am not using it for service. My point is the platforms are changing. We can’t figure out how to make dog pee sexy either. Lol

Use it for service and get back with me.

Seriously I do think it's what we are selling. Service can't compete with retail. Everyone loves new furnishings.

I agree platforms change their algorithms and suddenly what was, is no more. Instagram went from 15 second max length videos to 30 minutes. I hear they plan to extend that to hours.

I think right now they only allow 1 minute videos in the main feed and 15 seconds in the stories.

The assistant I recently fired tried to change my business instagram password. I was notified and immediately changed everything. Ugh, disgruntled people.
