?? A Post Format Idea You Can Steal
To keep your content fresh, it’s smart to look beyond your usual spaces—even those that seem worlds apart from what you do.?
Case in point: this niche Instagram account, Jazz and Folk, which has nearly 900K followers .
Here’s why it worked:
Jazz and folk music might not be the hottest genres, but they’ve managed to build a solid following by recommending underground artists.?
?? How can you get 200K views recommending an artist with 4,920 Spotify plays??
This is their formula:
Content quality first. They hardly miss. If you stumble across their content and have even the slightest interest in these genres, you’ll be hooked.
Uncomplicated and repeatable format. No frills, no complications—just basic videos that let the music shine. This straightforward approach allows them to post an average of four Reels per week.
?? As you know from our recent Instagram study, Reels are the format you need to master to grow on Instagram . So, why not take a page from their playbook??
Know your stuff, keep it simple, post consistently, and let your best content speak for itself.
?? Social Media News You Can't Miss
LinkedIn To Axe “Top Voice” Badges?
For users contributing to AI-prompted Collaborative Articles, effective October 8, 2024. No more automatic rewards just for participation.
Why it matters: For social media pros leveraging LinkedIn for thought leadership, this shift changes the game. The badge was a key motivator for many, boosting credibility and authority on the platform. Without it, the focus will return to delivering genuine expertise rather than chasing status. It’s a clear signal from LinkedIn : quality over quantity.
Facebook Just Made Earning Easier For Creators
Facebook is merging its monetization options—Reels, in-stream ads, and performance bonuses—into one streamlined program .
Now, creators can earn from various content formats, including Reels, longer videos, photos, and text posts. One million creators have been invited to join the beta.
Why it matters: If you’re creating on Facebook, this unified program means more ways to make money in one place. Whether posting videos, photos, or even text, you can now tap into multiple revenue streams with less hassle.?
More Resources For Instagram Creators
Instagram just rolled out a “Best Practices” section inside its professional dashboard, offering personalized tips on content creation, engagement, reach, and monetization.
Why it matters: This new hub will include insights on posting frequency, engagement metrics, and even monetization tips. Instagram is making it easier than ever for creators to grow and succeed—learn straight from the source .?
Pinterest’s New AI Tools For Advertisers
The company is rolling out generative AI tools to help advertisers automatically transform bland product images into lifestyle shots.
This upgrade means more engaging visuals, less manual work, and potentially higher clickthrough rates. Walgreens saw a 55% increase in CTR using Pinterest’s genAI—proof that it can make your ads stand out.
Why it matters: Better visuals mean better performance. If you’re running Pinterest ads, these new tools could help you create eye-catching content with minimal effort, giving your campaigns a more native Pinterest feel.
Okay, Metricooler, catch you next Sunday!
With love,?
