My biggest challenge with reels is trying to incorporate trends into a planned out schedule while still being educational about our brand since we have a very specific niche. A tip that I think will help me moving forward is the top 8 trending reel types that were shared. This allows for me to see different things that I could do. As well as how the boosting through Sprout works so that I can start boosting our top performing reels.

One of my biggest challenges is accurately describing to my student workers what is needed to create an effective reel. However, learning that vertical videos with audio, and with info in the “safe zone” are just the words I needed to tell them what is needed. Thanks for a great webinar!

My biggest challenge with Instagram Reels is getting content approved before the moment has passed. It’s one thing to develop A+ content, but moving it through the review process in a timely manner is quite another story.

Thanks for the webinar! Biggest challenge for reels is the time getting out into the field to capture the content. Biggest takeaway is that 50% of user time on the platform is spent with Reels.

Biggest challenge I’m finding is keeping reels content fresh and finding the posting frequency sweet spot. Boosting content that doing well is a great tip to promote content that’s resonating with the audience.

I sometimes hit a creative wall and struggle to diversify the type of reel we are putting out. Referring back to the top 8 trending reel styles will help shake up the content we push out.

Outside of tech problems, my biggest issues is making sure that the video content created doesn’t get overwritten by text/links/etc. on the platform. Fortunately the 35% rule should help with this!

Keeping up with the performance of different content can be challenging at times, however knowing what to look for  whether its watch time, ROAS, and more can help narrow down the pool of information into actionable results.
