Instagram Reels in 4 Steps

What are Instagram Reels

Hey friends! Today we’re going to talk about Instagram Reels and how you can record one for your own business. 

So Instagram Reels is fairly new, and it’s definitely new to me! I started using it about a month ago and I am loving it so far. I was afraid to try it first because it just was so new to me but it’s actually really fun and it doesn’t take too long at all.

Reels are just short 15 second clips that you can share on Instagram and they can help promote your business. They are great for helping you show behind the scenes or for giving tips to your clients. I really enjoy making them!

How to Make Instagram Reels

I’m going to show you how to make one in today’s video, and then in future videos we’re going to talk about some ideas that you can use to help this promote your business.


Step One: The very first thing you want to do before you start recording a reel is to plan it out. I just write down a really quick list with my ideas.

Step Two: Choose music. It automatically chooses a clip from the song for you, but you can adjust that as needed.

Step Three: Now it’s time to film! Remember, the total length of a Reel is 15 seconds, so you want to make sure you have time for everything that you want to put in it. 

Step Four: The final step is to add a title that’s going to catch people’s attention!
