We've made it to 2018. Every print shop at least has some social media presence these days. The website may be coming together, but the Facebook Page is up and you might have even discovered the beautiful world of Instagram.
Let's back up real quick. The long and short of it is Facebook owns Instagram. Instagram has more daily users than Twitter and has become the leader in photo sharing.
Okay, what's the difference? Facebook has videos and photo sharing, why in the world would I want to spend all this energy on Instagram?
It's simple.
Instagram takes photo sharing to a deeper and more personal level. More personal than Facebook? Yup, you heard it, more personal, more meaningful.
Instagram is finding more and more daily users because it has not been oversaturated with ads and still uses a "follower" model that allows users to "opt-in" to view your page's photos and videos. Most users have their own personal Instagram and are interacting with others similar to the follower model in Twitter.
Instagram also has the stories feature similar to that of Snapchat. The stories feature allows you to post expiring photos and videos. They're only on your stream for 24 hours. They can even be live. You can poll customers and post "insider" content. This creates avenues for your customers to check in with your business daily, interact, and ultimately engage with you.
We are in the BEST industry for a business to have an Instagram page. You're not an ad agency selling laundry detergent, you are producing art, and delivering it to your customers. Everyone needs something custom made, so your possibilities are endless. Your designs are creative, watching ink through screens is visually stimulating, and what you have is the ability to engage with current and future customers regularly.
Here are a few tips to take your Instagram to new levels.

Kill Your Darlings: Making a Strategic Choice About Which Profiles You Don't ...Falcon.io
Social media has given brands the ability to reach their consumers almost anywhere in the world. While that, at first glance, might make social seem like the golden goose, many are realizing that trying to be everywhere and reach everyone can negatively impact their performance. With finite resources, brands risk spreading themselves too thin in an attempt to be omnipresent. To address this, more and more brands are working to identify and focus on the areas with the greatest opportunity for growth, both on and off social media. Consequently, many brands are closing and consolidating many of their profiles, making a conscious choice of where not to be and not to focus.
Tune in to this session to hear Casper Vahlgren, Senior Strategist at Falcon.io, outline how selectiveness and prioritization should be key components of the strategic process for any brand and the impact this can have on their social media ecosystem and tactics.

WE ARE AN AWARD-WINNING, INDEPENDENT CREATIVE AGENCY WITH
STRATEGY AT THE HEART OF EVERYTHING WE DO.
We create ideas that are designed for where audiences are: social. This means that we take a social-up rather
than advertising-down approach. It’s why we used online trolling to launch a new car brand, turned Twitter
complaints into gin chat and made the school run into a Facebook mini-series.
