Waking up every morning and checking my Instagram feed and stories has almost become routine for me, as I am sure it might be for you too. It’s such a simple, easy and engaging way to put your content out. And it’s safe to say that ever since Instagram introduced Stories, it has changed the way brands, bloggers and celebrities promote themselves as well as their content.
