Last month Instagram rolled out a new Stories Chat Sticker, which allows business profiles to better engage with the community, start real conversations, and gain more followers through posting to their Instagram Stories.

Here are 4 strategic ways that businesses can use the Instagram Stories Chat Sticker:

How should you use the Chat Sticker?

  1. Invite customers to a local event. Let’s say you’re hosting an event or meet-up. You can use the chat feature to build a mini-community around the event. Introduce yourself to the group and answer any questions they might have.
  2. Get customer feedback: Looking for honest feedback? Invite a select number of followers to chat with you on what they like and/or dislike about your product/service.
  3. Offer an exclusive deal or info: Use the chat feature to convert your followers into buyers by offering a limited time promo code or new product.
  4. Create mini-communities with your clients: If you’re regularly communicating with clients, use the chat feature to bring specific people together. For example; you’re a personal trainer and a few of your clients are training for a marathon. Fire up the chat sticker to get all of your runners in the same place.
