What do you guys at Plann recommend?
Personally? We think a business account is the way forward…
If you’re running a personal account with the aim to build influence, sell products or promote your work, we’d highly recommend converting your personal profile to a business account.
The analytics that are offered are so much richer, and features that 3rd party products (like us at Plann) can provide to you can give such helpful information to grow your business, and help you make better decisions about your marketing strategy.
Here’s how to convert your Instagram Personal Account to a Business Profile.
