Instagram has announced the launch of Creator Labs, a new education-focused feature designed to help aspiring and emerging creators grow their presence on the platform. The focal point of the new feature will consist of peer-to-peer advice from popular creators who have already had success in developing a fanbase through Instagram.
Advice will be shared from many creators, including fashion influencers, fine-dining experts, emerging entrepreneurs, entertainment critics, musicians, painters, and more. The feature will be divided into three sub-sections -- Expressing Yourself, Building Community, and Growing Long-Term -- each of which will feature custom videos made by participating creators. These videos will cover topics such as “going full-time as a creator,” “building content strategy,” and “addressing money taboos."
“Being able to connect creators with other creators and soon-to-be-creators, and giving them a personal space to educate, is what makes the Creator Lab so unique,” said beauty creator Kali Ledger in a recent press statement. “It’s all about sharing current tips and tricks, practical advice, and how to get started in 2022."
