Episode description

Small-but-powerful. Front-and-center. Instagram bios are well worth the time and investment to write well and test often. They're one of the most visible descriptions of who you are and what you're about! We’ll sort out all the best practices, design tips, and strategies that the top brands and profiles are using today.

Should you go highly descriptive of what you do, or keep it loose and aspirational? 

Should you include contact info? hashtags? emoji? 

And how often should you update it? 

We’ll unpack these questions together and send you on your way with some tips that you can try on your bio today!

- Heather-Mae & Nate
