EP #120: Instagram Business vs. Creator Account: What’s Best for Local Business Owners?
Jun 03, 2025
If you’ve ever wondered whether you should be using an Instagram Business account or a Creator account — this quick episode will give you the clarity you need!
This is a question I recently answered inside The Localpreneur Academy because many local business owners and service providers get stuck deciding which is “better” — and whether they should start a whole new account or switch from personal.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The current features of both Business and Creator accounts (as of 2025)
- How to know if YOU are a personal brand or a local business
- The best type of account for your business
