Description
Would you like to have something new for your Instagram account?
Why don’t you try to create an Instagram puzzle or Instagram puzzle feed?
With help of Jacki Jacobs’ Instagram Puzzle template you can educate your Instagram followers
Selling products or services on Instagram can be tricky if you don’t balance your sales posts with content. Using the “Teach Me Something” puzzle template gives you 27 opportunities to engage and educate your audience as well as sell to them. The template is designed to visually “wow” your audience and is crafted in a way so that you can provide a bit more substance than just selling. We’ve made it easy for you, so what are you waiting for?
Six reasons to start using Instagram puzzles
1. Stand out
Getting attention on Instagram is getting more difficult all the time. If you entered Instagram early you were a trendsetter but by now everyone is already on Instagram.
2. Get a wow factor
”Oh cool, what an interesting account – someone is paying a special attention crafting it, this is so innovative! I need to know more about how they did this and see if it would work for me!”
When people are starting to spend more time on your account Instagram’s algorithm notices and gives you a boost to your posts, making them visible longer.
3. A puzzle helps you to create content
With a nine-piece puzzle (or a 27-piece-puzzle like Jacki does herself) you don’t need to think daily what the heck to post next. If you start using the same grid over and over again you can make rules for yourself. Rules like the pictures 1 & 2 are for new products, the pictures 3, 6 and 9 are for customer reviews, picture 4 is a behind the scenes story, picture 5 is a promotion and so on. And of course you can leave empty spots for your grids so that you can add new pictures too. One way to do it is to use the puzzle picture as a cover picture on an Instagram carousel. Or if you want to keep your Instagram feed very simple, add the fresh pictures and videos on your Instagram story.
4. A puzzle helps you to create branded content
When you have changed your brand element on the template (like colours, fonts, logos, and other visual elements) you can forget about them and just think about what kind of pictures you want to use next. Once you have customized your Canva template with your computer/laptop you can create new content with the Canva app on your mobile phone too. Therefore you can jump for joy once your Instagram feed is perfectly embedded it on your web page or blog.
5. A puzzle is a great tool for building a story or theme
Would you like to show-case a group of products, share images or anecdotes from your road-trip or educate your audience with 9 facts about a topic? 9 grids are just long enough to capture the attention of your audience and keep coming back to see what happens next. Just think about yourself: are you interested in the advent calendars some organization creates but start to get bored after they’ve posted more than half of their content?
6. A puzzle will re-engage your current followers
”What will they post next?”
People are curious by their nature so use that curiosity to keep them coming back for your addictive content!
