Every time Trial Reels come up in conversation wit Every time Trial Reels come up in conversation with business owners, creators, and brands I notice the same thing.

Nobody is using them.

Instagram rolled this out quietly at the end of 2024 and most people either don’t know they exist or aren’t sure what to do with them. So let’s fix that.

Trial Reels are one of the only ways Instagram lets you get your content in front of people who don’t follow you yet. They show your reels to non followers through the explore page and reels feed. That is new eyes, new followers, and new potential clients — without paid ads.

Here is what you need to know:

-Trial Reels are only available to professional accounts and some creator accounts
-They gain traction for 24 hours — after that views stop
-You can run a trial at the same time you post to your feed
-They are not just for new content, repurpose your best performing reels

I have used them consistently and have seen my follower count grow because of it. The content that performs best is funny, engaging, or tied to trending audio. Stay away from talking head content unless it stops someone in the first second.

This is a feature worth adding to your strategy right now.

Save this and post your first Trial Reel this week.

Having your account in order is one of the most im Having your account in order is one of the most important parts of building a strong profile.

Think about it. Someone scrolls past your post, it stops them, they click your page. You have seconds to tell them who you are and whether they should follow you.

Step one is always a clean and concise bio. But that’s just the beginning.  Step two is your pinned posts.  Most people are either not using them or not using them strategically.
Here’s what your three pinned posts should be doing for you:

-Post 1 — Who you are and what you do
-Post 2 — What kind of content you create and what they can count on from you
-Post 3 — Your highest viewed content. Not your favorite. The one with the most views.

And before you stress about having three, Facebook only allows one pinned post. One strong post is all you need there.

Your pinned posts are prime real estate. They set the tone, build trust, and give someone every reason to hit follow.  Don’t leave that to chance.

Don't take this the wrong way. But I hate AI flie Don't take this the wrong way.  But I hate AI fliers.

They all look the same. Generic, flat, and with no real depth. More importantly they don't look anything like your brand. Someone should be able to see your flier and know immediately that it came from you. AI fliers are not doing that.

I get it. You are busy. You need something fast and you don't want flier design to take up your whole day. I am not going to tell you I hate something without giving you a way to do it better.

Canva can get you a branded, readable, properly sized flier in 30 minutes. Here is what most people are missing:

-Your flier should match your brand colors and fonts
-Font pairing matters — and script fonts are never all caps
-If it is hard to read it is not working
-Every platform has different size requirements and AI fliers are almost never optimized for them

I use AI every single day. Flier creation is just not the best use of it.

Swipe through and let me show you how to do it better.

Save this before you make your next flier.

3 Fun Outfits for Pre-Fall with Perfectly Priscilla Boutique

{This post is sponsored by Perfectly Priscilla Boutique}

Pre-fall seems like a made up term used to fill the gap between the end of summer and the start of fall. However, in reality it is it’s own season full of bright colors, transitional pieces and really cool style. Brands have pre-fall launches. It is an actual season of fashion.

Why have a pre-fall and no pre-winter or pre-spring? There are four major seasons in the fashion industry. Fall/winter, spring/summer, resort and pre-fall. The need for pre-fall is because the season between summer and fall can be long, temperatures fluctuate a lot and people are excited to move on from their bright summer colors but the cool weather hasn’t hit just yet.

This is my second month working with Perfectly Priscilla Boutique and I was so excited to collaborate with them on all of these pre-fall pieces. New items arrive daily so you need to keep up with them on Instagram and Facebook.

So what’s in pre-fall this year? Well for me it’s a little of the following…

Shorts.

It is going to be a while before we are out of shorts weather. Last year I don’t know that we ever got out of it because I am pretty sure that I wore shorts to Mardi Gras in February.

Shorts don’t have a “season”. They are about the same length as a skirt so if the weather is skirt appropriate you can wear shorts and if it’s not put a pair of tights under them. Boom. Did I blow your mind?

Jumpsuits.

Moving from rompers to jumpsuits is one way to embrace pre-fall. Find jumpsuits that are lightweight for the warmer days. I am loving the seventies trends that have been happening the last year and this jumpsuit gave me that vintage vibe.

Another thing I like in pre-fall is to change the colors I am wearing from those bright summer tones to deeper shades. I love the floral pattern on this jumpsuit with the deep aubergine.

Burnt Orange.

Speaking of changing the colors you are wearing burnt orange is the perfect way to do it with a little pop of leopard.

So while we wait for the weather to cool down these are a few ways to feel those pre-fall vibes.
