Instagram for companies Good management practices!

Perhaps at some point you have asked yourself this question: is Instagram really necessary for companies?
The answer is clearly yes.
Instagram is a social network that is characterized by its high engagement in each of the publications we make, since these, unlike Facebook, are shown to all your followers.
Another of the most significant data of the social network that is growing the most in our country is that users are used to commenting, liking in publications or even sharing content.
One of the secrets in which Instagram’s success lies is the simplicity of it and, above all, the fact that its formats, videos and images are the most consumed by the user.
We already know that the trend is increasingly increasing towards the image and, especially, towards the video.
But, if it is still not clear to you the use of an Instagram account for companies, I will give you more information so that you can see the potential that a profile has on this social network.

Tips for managing an Instagram account for companies
Uniformity in name
One of the first topics to discuss is the name of the profile.
The normal and logical given that it is your Instagram account for a company, is that you put the name of the company, leave the creative part for your publications.
If you are a recognized brand within your sector, even more if possible, you must put it.
But, whether or not it is a recognized brand, if you are faced with the fact that your name is being used by third parties, you can ask Instagram to verify the account as official, which will make it appear with the blue check.
Another of the disadvantages that I usually find, more often than I would like, is to see how by means of a personal account photos of the company or organization are added to spread it, gaining followers, increasing the “likes” and with comments on posts.
Do not worry because there is a solution, we know how Instagram works and it makes it very easy, you will only have to go to edit profile and make all the necessary changes to adapt it to your brand and not lose the content or the followers.
