Let's be honest - how many of you use the friends feature? "I don't understand why this feature is necessary for commercial accounts," you might say and... you'd be wrong!

4 ways to use your friends list will radically change the way you think about this feature, and you may already be creating your first list of Instagram friends today.

Award for active

Bloggers are not the only ones who have loyal, attentive and curious followers. Any commercial account has them too. Such users like, comment, and create traffic on your page, for which they can definitely be rewarded.

Include such users in your list, give them discount coupons or other gifts, share a secret sale with them, or offer them a limited edition product or service to increase their loyalty and trust of your followers. We don't need to tell you how important this is for commercial accounts!

Create a VIP membership

If you provide services, you need a Vip membership! For select customers, make announcements and offer bonuses, and to all others be sure to tell them about the existence of VIP membership, its benefits, and instructions on how to become one!

Backstage for customers

In addition to nosy customers, there are equally nosy competitors, who are always trying to spy on your idea or an original solution. The list of best friends excludes all Hector, detractors, competitors, and other characters for whom the content is not intended for!

A way to say "thank you"

Thank your customers, but not in front of the entire Instagram community, but in a narrower, more private circle. This way you will make them feel important to you and your brand, as well as the reverent attitude and everyone's favorite personalized approach!
