Step 1: Switch to a Creator Account on Instagram

Your journey to professionalizing your Instagram account starts here! Transitioning to a Creator Account not only unlocks special tools but also enhances your profile for brand collaborations.

1. Access Your Profile Settings:
   
   • Open Instagram and tap on your profile picture at the bottom right to head to your profile page.
   • In the top right corner, you’ll find three horizontal lines (often called the “hamburger menu”). Tap on it.
2. Navigate to Settings:
   
   • From the menu, tap on “Settings”.
   • Depending on your current account type, you may find either “Account” or “Business Tools and Controls”. Select the option that applies to you.
3. Switch to Professional Mode:
   
   • Look for the option that says “Switch to Professional Account” or something similar.
   • You’ll be given a choice between a Business and a Creator account. Choose “Creator” for access to a variety of tools geared towards influencers and creators.
4. Choose Your Category:
   
   • You can select a category that best describes your content (like Blogger, Public Figure, Artist, etc.). If you’re unsure, you can skip this step.
5. Confirm the Switch:
   
   • Tap “Done”, and you’re officially switched to a Creator account! You’ll now have access to new insights and profile options to help you grow.

Step 2: Connect Your Facebook Page to Instagram

By linking your Facebook Page to your Instagram Creator account, you not only gain access to advanced features but also present a unified brand identity to advertisers.

If you already have a Facebook Page:

Don’t have a Facebook Page yet? No worries, creating one is simple:

1. From Instagram:
   
   • Go to your Settings and find the “Public Business Information” section.
   • Instead of selecting an existing Page, tap “Create New Page”.

2. From Facebook (optional):
   
   • Log in to Facebook and visit Facebook's Page Creation.
   • Choose a category, fill in the details, and complete the setup.
