Introduced last year and slowly rolling out are Instagram guides. Guides are not only for travel websites and blogs but also great ways to establish your brand as a subject matter expert.
Although some are left scratching their heads, here are a few ways to include Instagram guides in your strategy.
Think about creating an FAQ guide for your niche. Or, simply gather tips you’ve made along the way and curate them into a guide. Not interested in getting technical? Create a guide that tells your brand’s story and introduce your team to the world.

Let’s talk about three different ways you can include guides in your social media strategy.
If you haven’t used them already, guides on Instagram is a great way to grow your brand into a subject matter expert. With that being said, here are a few ways to get started.
Create an FAQ guide for your niche. Try answering each question with a post you’ve created related to that topic. If you don’t feel like creating a whole FAQ guide, just gather you tips you’ve created under a similar topic and organize them accordingly.
If you don’t feel like getting technical, just try sharing your brand story. Introduce new followers to the core of who you are and what you do. Think about including some of your brand’s values, as well as some insight into each member of your team.
Guides are a great way to get people introduced to your company and for them to know what’s really going on behind the scenes.
While I’ve known Greg for years from our time together in the marketing scene, I’ve only recently had the chance to work with Trinity Web Media on a client project. Not only was the team professional and their work spot on, they were amazingly quick to respond and required very little hand-holding along the way. I chalk that up to their past experience and a deep understanding of best-in-class services.
I have hired Greg and the Trinity team multiple times for work on my own websites, and have also hired them to work on behalf of multiple clients. He is simply a pleasure to work with, in every respect. Smart but without the giant ego of some developers, Trinity Web Media works with his clients to achieve their vision in the best way possible — with careful attention to their interests, and thoughtful recommendations based on his expertise. • Susan Baier – Founding Marketing Strategist – Audience Audit
