Are you having trouble coming up with the perfect interactive instagram captions?

Because I feel like we are all in the in the same book.

I spend countless days wondering what I should post under my pictures, sometimes scheduling my pictures to be posted and they appear on the Instagram platform captionless. And you would think we are authors, we should have the best captions possible.

Remember a good caption intrigues your readers causing them to click the more button and is always accompanied by a call to action (CTA) so that they can interact with your content.

My #1 Instagram Caption Trick

In order for me to never run out of captions, the daily diaries usually have motivational quotes on the top of the page. Every day there is a different quote. So when I am high and dry and caption thirsty, I usually search through those in the diary and find one that applies.

This has helped me quite a lot and you too can give it a try. Speaking of captions, why not check out my Instagram account and join the fambam. Please be sure to leave your Instagram account below and don’t forget to hit the share button.
