What to Post on Stories: 5 Prompts That Boost Engagement

Not sure what to post on stories? We get it! What matters is that you make the decision to show up. Here are 5 easy prompts to help you show up, connect with your audience, and boost engagement — without overthinking it.

This or That

Give your followers two fun options to choose from. Whether it’s outfit choices, morning routines, or favorite tools, this is a great way to invite interaction (we recommend doing a little market research to see what your audience would connect best with).

Behind-the-Scenes

Show your process! Packing an order? Getting ready for a client call? Creating content? A quick BTS moment helps your audience feel included and connected in your day-to-day life.

Daily Vlog

Share a quick snap of where you’re working, walking, or unwinding. It doesn’t have to be fancy — just a real glimpse into your day. This is a trendy way to connect with your audience!

Ask a Question

Use the question sticker to start a conversation. You can ask for recommendations, feedback, or just get to know your audience better.

A Quick Tip or Mini Tutorial

Teach something small but valuable. A short how-to or helpful hack (especially when it’s visual) is easy to digest and super shareable.

Stories don’t have to be perfect — they just have to be you. Show up, share a little, and connect consistently. That’s where the magic happens when you post on stories.
