Before we get started, let's cover some basics. First, check out this article if you are brand new to Instagram Stories. This resource will show you how to access stories in your account, how to view stories etc. Once you are familiar, you can start exploring the tools to bring your Instagram stories to the next level...and that's where we come in! To access these tools, simply create a new story, and add one of your listings photos. Then press the happy face icon in the top right corner (seen below on the left). A menu will pop up (seen below on the right), and you'll see a ton of options of things you can add to your story. Today, we are focusing on three tools: the slider, the poll, and the quiz.
The Slider tool is a super easy to implement and fun for your followers to engage with. To use it, you can ask a simple question, write a statement, or leave the text part blank. Then, choose an emoji that matches your text/sentiment. Your followers can use the scale to show how much they agree with the statement.
The poll is a super popular Instagram Story tool that lends it self perfectly to showing off your listing photos. Not only is it easy to use, but it is also a fun way for you to get to know your followers better! To use it, you simply ask a question, and add two options for your followers to choose from. In this example, we posted two photos from the listing and asked our followers to choose between the two photos as to where they would prefer to entertain company.
The Quiz tool is a fun way to get your audience to stop and pay a little extra attention to your listing. To use it, you write a question on the top, then add 1 correct answer and 2+ incorrect answers (just like you would on a multiple choice test). Double tap on the answer that is correct to save it (it will turn green). When your followers view your story, they can read the question and guess the answer. If they guess correctly they will get a little firework show...if they guess wrong, they are shown the correct answer.
Using all three of these Instagram Story tools is sure to boost your listing marketing...but if you want to convert your viewers to leads, there is one important thing you must make sure to do. You must provide your viewers with a way to get more information about your listing!
We hope these Instagram Story tools help you boost your social media marketing and generate new, valuable leads.
