On Brand with Nick Westergaard Social Sound Bite: Instagram Ads, HootSuite Integration on the Way
On this week’s Social Sound Bite – recorded live at the KXIC studios in Iowa City – Jay and I discussed a flurry of recent announcements from Instagram. Specifically, the Facebook-owned photo-sharing platform announced that they were opening up their advertising API — a move that could put them ahead of Google and Twitter in display advertising. They also announced closer integration with HootSuite. Listen for the full sound bite and enjoy these useful links to the news, trends, and tips included in this week’s show.
Beyond the Sound Bite
- Instagram just made a major move that will turn it into a huge advertising business (Business Insider).
- Hootsuite Announces Instagram Integration (Social Media Today).
Remember, the Social Sound Bite is just the appetizer! On Monday morning we’ll serve up a fresh new episode of the On Brand Podcast. This week we’ll be talking to Scott Monty of Scott Monty Strategies and a speaker at this fall’s Social Brand Forum.
