Instagram- What's the Point? What are Hashtags?

I recorded this training last night for my team #fierceohana during the last part of the NCAA championship.  You might hear a little cheering break out.

But we have been exploring different social media platforms and I wanted to do some basics on Instagram and what hashtags are for.  I also encouraged them to have their own personally-branded hashtag.

Check out the training here:

One thing I couldn't do on the video was "Trending Hashtags"

Click on the Magnifying Glass/ Search button and you will see the current most popular hashtags on Instagram.  Again, make sure they are relevant to your brand and message before using.  Otherwise you'll get a lot of confused viewers instead of your ideal followers/customers.
