Social Media
Please follow us on socials and share your posts with us. Please tag us @hbopenstudios
We’re on Facebook and Instagram @hbopenstudios.
Collab Posts on Instagram. This is much better than repost! It’s like ‘repost’ but all comments and likes are concentrated on one post that appears in both our feeds.
After uploading your Reel or feed post tap “Tag People”. In the bottom right corner, you’ll see an option to “Invite Collaborator.” Search for us @hbopenstudios. Once you’ve selected our account tap the checkmark to confirm. Then write your caption and add hashtags and share your post. PLEASE NOTE- You have to tag and invite collaborator before you post, it doesn’t work as an edit afterwards. Make sure that we’re following you otherwise you won’t be able to collab. Send us a message on Insta, Whatsapp or email and we’ll follow you if we’re not already. When we see it and accept, your post will be seen on our feed too.
