Here are some strategic recommendations for business travelers looking to optimize their work trips for social media engagement:

Business owners and entrepreneurs often utilize contests and giveaways to help engage audiences and promote their brand on social media. However, it is important to avoid certain pitfalls when implementing these strategies that could undermine marketing goals or damage credibility. Here are 5 mistakes companies should be cognizant of when running promotional contests:

1. Failing to clearly outline rules and terms - Contests seen as ambiguous or unfair will quickly lose trust. 

2. Not properly vetting winners - Inaccurate handling of winner selection tarnishes the brand experience.

3. Inadequate prizes - Offers seen as underwhelming or misleading will disappoint participants.

4. Poor timing - Improperly scheduled contests are less impactful and may not reach target audiences.

5. Lack of follow-through - Not following up on winners or commitments to rules damages goodwill and future participation. 

By carefully considering these potential missteps, businesses can maximize audience engagement through contests while maintaining high standards of transparency and a positive customer experience.

1) Latest Instagram Update

Instagram is marking the first anniversary of the launch of their Notes feature with some productive updates. Users can now choose to create short, looping videos directly within notes as opposed to solely images or text-based posts. Additionally, responding to friends' notes now allows for more expressive and engaging responses through audio, photos, videos, GIFs and stickers rather than just text. These developments aim to further foster connection and meaningful exchanges between users. 

The expanded creative options give individuals new ways to personally share their perspectives or support and comment on others' notes in a multimedia format. By continuing to refine Notes over time, Instagram hopes to provide a thoughtful communication channel that facilitates quality interaction and expression between community members on their platform.

5) Growth Hack of the Day!

> Intro do’s and dont’s in your bio:

Stop using hashtags here. It's a waste of space. You have 159 characters, and here is what you can do:

Describe who you are in the first line.

Start the 2nd line with credibility factors like years of experience, the number of students, where are you studying right now, or what's your mission statement. For example, on a mission to help people with __. 

Your 3rd line should state follow me for __.

4th line should mention a call to action like DM me for, click below for - you need to tell them what you have to offer or how they can contact you. 

Don't forget to add emojis before each line.
