Instagram released a pretty in-depth look at their algorithm and how it works. There has been lots of speculation behind the social network's practices and they have given us a behind-the-scenes look at how it actually works so that you can reach more people!

What is IGTV?

IGTV is Instagrams brand new long-form video platform. In an effort to further compete with YouTube and Snapchat, Instagram released the platform to give creators and filmmakers a new safe haven to share their content.

What makes it different?

Anyone can use it! Personal, as well as business accounts, can use the platform and share content (at this point) of durations up to 10 minutes and 60 minutes for some larger accounts.

What makes it extra special is that all video on the platform is filmed and uploaded as vertical footage. That's right. No square and no landscape. This is something YouTube had the opportunity to jump on at least a year ago but failed to do so and in our opinion, missed the boat.

On the podcast we're unpacking everything we know so far and can say that we're really excited about what we see so far. What are your thoughts on the new host?

Send us an email and let us know what you think!

Here's that post we were talking about with Mr. Prime Minister himself.

Which marketing strategy is best for your business? Is inbound marketing for you? With so many channels to choose from and tests to run to determine which works best we thought we'd help you by outlining the benefits of adopting an Inbound marketing approach vs. the traditional outbound efforts many businesses still use today.

Our guest Andrea Moxham is the owner and Inbound Marketing Strategist from Horseshoe + co.

Andrea is a Hubspot certified consultant and what makes her unique in her role is that she’s been on the agency side providing support for both enterprise, corporate, and small business clients and determined pretty early in her career that the starting her own agency was not only attainable but something that was on her radar.
