Instagram looks to be testing a new Stories sticker option which would enable the users to share a business profile with their followers, including a header and a three-image preview that links through to a brand's on-platform presence.
Reverse Engineer, Jane Manchun Wong showed an example where the new 'Share Professional' sticker would enable users to add in an Instagram @profile, which would then pull in thumbnails of the most recent three posts from that account. That preview could then be used as a promotional tool in Instagram Stories - you could promote the business of a friend, a service that's helped you out, or maybe a local SMB that's struggling during the COVID-19 shutdowns.
Beyond Covid-19 this tool can be a useful tool through which people can promote their business. This could be a great avenue to share the tips and also could promote their respective business. It's a simple avenue to help raise awareness of your business on Instagram and get more attention for your account.
Through this way they could ask for the customer's review to share a link which could be used within promotions. As the popularity of Stories is increasing leaps and bounds, it could be a valuable tool to consider.
Instagram haven't yet published or posted any information about this feature, but judging by the above photo and Wong's records about these kinds of discoveries, we could get this in the near future.
