Struggle to write Instagram captions? Join the club. Out of all the copywriting and brand-building topics, I’d have to say Instagram captions are the one people hate the most. If you want to stop your followers mid-scroll, keep their attention, and meet a strong objective (like sell a product or teach a tip) with your captions, this episode is for you.
I’m going to take you behind-the-scenes and use one of my real captions as a case study. Check it out here:https://www.instagram.com/p/B_EZ8SGD5d-/
