Benefits of Posting Collaborative Posts:

  • Increased Reach: Access a broader audience by appearing on multiple profiles.

  • Enhanced Credibility: Partnering with others adds authority to your brand.

  • Higher Engagement: Collaborative posts often receive more likes, comments, and shares.

  • Stronger Community: Build and strengthen relationships within your industry or community.

FAQs

Do I need an Instagram Business account to create a collaborative post?

Yes, both you and your collaborator need Instagram Business accounts to create a collaborative post. This feature is currently not available for personal accounts.

Can I send a collaboration request to a private account?

Yes, you can send a collaboration request to a private account. They will receive a notification in their Direct Messages and can choose to accept or decline it. However, if their account is private, you won't be able to see their posts unless they approve you as a follower.

Why can't I add a collaborator?

Both you & and the target collaborator should have Business accounts. Private accounts can only collaborate with their followers. Collab partner's "Who can tag you" setting might be set to "No one.”

Why did my post get published without the collaborator, even though I added the collaborator?

You might have made a spelling mistake in the username of the collaborator when scheduling.

Why Can’t I Add 5 Collaborators?

You can add only up to three collaborators to your Instagram post via Statusbrew due to Instagram’s API limitations.
