Instagram advertising

[fifthwheel]

Morning all, looking for a bit of help placing an add on Instagram. Iv'e googled, youtubed, searched all over but all I see

are tutorials telling me to convert to a business account. This seems to be for car dealers with more than just

one car.

 

I am ok with Facebook Marketplace but would like to include Instagram as well. I think its possible to link them together but

dont know how. I want to show a photo with a description of my own bike or car. I'm sure it must be very simple, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks john.

As far as I know you need to convert to a business account (I've done it and it's easy) and then "promote" your post. Plenty of info via Google if you choose to do it.

Linking your IG account to Facebook as also very straightforward and can be done via your account settings.

You can add contact details (email and/or phone/text) to your profile once you've converted, by the way. You can also revert to a personal account whenever you like.

Cant seem to master it guys, I will just stick to advertising in Marketplace for now.  Why do they make it so fecking difficult to place a simple ad in Instagram. john.
