đ˛ How to Use Instagram Highlights to Build a Professional Profile
Turn your profile into a funnel the moment someone lands on it.
Most people waste their Instagram Highlights.
They clutter them with randomness.
Outdated stories. Food pics. Reposts. Irrelevant noise.
But if youâre serious about affiliate marketingâespecially high-ticket offers like Project Profitâyour IG profile needs to feel intentional the moment someone taps it.
Your Highlights should turn visitors into followers.
Followers into leads.
Leads into buyers.
This is how to set it up like a pro.
đŻ Why Highlights Matter
Highlights are the first impression beneath your bio.
They give your page structure.
They show your content in motion.
They act as a mini landing pageâright on your profile.
People judge you in seconds.
Highlights help you control what they see and where they go next.
