Live Q&A: Instagram Essentials

Margarita Lila Rosa, Historian and Curator
Tuesday, August 20, 2024 | 5-6pm ET
This is a free event.
Join Margarita Lila Rosa for a Live Q&A on creating impactful social media content on Instagram.

Social media algorithms are constantly changing and formats are forever shifting. Is it possible to create authentic content and still garner the likes, comments, and follows demanded by greedy algorithms? What does it mean to be authentic anyway? Margarita Rosa will share Instagram insights she learned while creating content for herself and others. What does “success” on social media mean to her and what could it mean for you? How can you use the structure of the platform to your advantage?

During this Q&A, Margarita will outline what she knows about the inner workings of Instagram and discuss best practices. She’ll answer questions related to timing, format, education, audience, and impact along with whatever questions you bring. She’ll also address AI’s impact on your feed. Whether you have a robust social media presence or your last post was last year, this Q&A is for you.
