3 Ways To Engage With Your Audience On Instagram Stories

 

Since Instagram Stories were first introduced, influencers have been using them to create a stronger sense of community with followers. Stories are a great way to interact with your audience and build trust.

Here are 3 ways to use Instagram Stories to engage with followers:

Have your followers plan your day

Block out a free day in your calendar and have your followers plan your day for you! You can poll them on several decisions, like what clothes you should wear or what food you should eat for lunch. This is a fun way to interact with and engage with your followers, especially if some of the options are silly.

Just remember that you’ll need to be open to actually following through with any of the options you present to your followers!

Host an “Ask Me Anything” session

Your audience is likely curious about your life, so share it with them! Using the “Questions” sticker on Instagram Stories, you can have followers submit questions they have, either on a particular subject or about anything at all, and answer them with video responses.

Many influencers will do this while traveling or before a big event, so if you have some time to kill, consider announcing an AMA and get ready to share more about your world.

Get feedback from your audience

At the end of the day, your content is nothing without followers to engage with it. Make sure you are creating the types of content that they like! Through either polls, DM responses, the Questions sticker, or however else you want to receive responses, ask them audience for feedback so you can continue to create posts that they enjoy.
