Instagram is becoming a hub of content. Just a couple of days back, Instagram rolled out a new feature named Instagram Guides. 

Guides can be used to share long texts or blogs accompanied by the user's posts or saved posts and products from the Instagram shop. But they do not support likes, comments or insights, neither are they explorable through hashtags. So how can these Guides be useful for Content Creators and Brands?

On this episode, I share a list of advantages of using Instagram Guides.
