Want to convert more followers on Instagram? Wondering how Stories can help you close more business?

Some marketers think that Stories are a waste of time because they're aimed at followers, rather than viewers. 

But the latest updates to the algorithm have changed everything. In 2023, the IG news feed is approximately 40% recommended content. Users are seeing posts, Stories, and Reels from accounts that they don't follow yet. 

That gives you a valuable way to reach new viewers with your Stories—and turn them into committed followers. 

What's more, the algorithm uses engagement with your Stories as important information to help rank your content. Every time someone watches a Story all the way through, reacts to it, or sends you a DM, you get a boost with the algorithm.

To learn how to convert more customers with Stories on Instagram, click below:
