Why share Threads on Instagram?

Sharing your clients’ Threads on their Instagram pages offers the following benefits:

• Boost engagement. Threads posts can spark more intimate interaction and engagement with followers since the platform is designed for starting and joining conversations. Sharing your clients’ Threads posts on Instagram extends that engagement to wider audiences. Think more likes, shares, and comments. 
• Build authenticity. Threads is all about establishing genuine connections and authenticity. Showcasing these posts on your clients’ Instagram helps reinforce the brand values they established with Threads followers.
• Grow followers. Threads is relatively new, so not everyone knows about it yet. Posting your clients’ threads on their Instagram feeds lets followers know they’re on Threads. It can encourage followers to jump on the Threads train, check out your clients’ Threads profiles and content, and follow them on the platform. That’s one way of increasing your clients’ Threads followers. 
• Content variety. Adding Threads posts to your clients’ regular Instagram content can help spice up their feeds. It can break the monotony and give your clients’ audiences something fresh, enticing them to interact with your content.

If you share the Threads post on your Instagram Stories, you can customize it like a new Story on Instagram before publishing it.

For instance, you can add stickers, music, background colors, etc.

Your clients’ Threads and Instagram audiences may not be the same, so customize the Threads posts accordingly to ensure they appeal to and resonate with IG followers.

Remember these wise words from William Butler Yeats…

“Think like a wise man but communicate in the language of the people.”

You can also send Threads content via Direct Messages (DMs) to Instagram or Facebook Messenger friends.

The process is pretty similar on Android and iPhone but with slight interface differences.

Share Threads on Instagram through your desktop

You can share your clients’ Threads posts on their Instagram pages using a web browser on your desktop.

Go to www.threads.net and log in to your client’s Threads account.

Open the Threads post you want to share to Instagram and click the Share Icon below.

Copy the thread’s link or embed code.

Open your client’s Instagram account and create a post.

Paste the thread link or embed code, customize the post, and publish it on Instagram.

And there you have it. That’s how easy it is to share Threads on Instagram.

You can also discover Threads and creators you’re following, including the posts you’ve liked. Share their posts to your clients’ Instagram feeds (with proper attribution to the original creators).

Remember that your clients’ Threads and Insta posts should adhere to Instagram’s Terms of Use and Community Guidelines.

Proven violations can get your clients’ accounts restricted, blocked, or deleted by Instagram.
