Instagram Carousel Post Outline

Structure a 10-slide Instagram carousel that educates and converts.

📋 Template
SLIDE 1 (HOOK):
Headline: "[Number] [Topic] mistakes you're making"
or: "The [Topic] cheat sheet you didn't know you needed"

SLIDE 2 (PROBLEM):
"Most people think [common misconception]..."
[Visual: simple text on solid background]

SLIDES 3-8 (VALUE):
Each slide = one tip/mistake/step
Format per slide: Bold headline + 2-3 bullet points + icon

SLIDE 9 (SUMMARY):
"Quick recap:" + all tips in one view

SLIDE 10 (CTA):
"Save this post 🔖"
"Share with someone who needs this"
"Follow @[handle] for more"

💡 Pro Tip

Carousels get 3x more engagement than single images on Instagram. Use bold headlines on each slide. The first slide is your thumbnail — make it scroll-stopping. Use a consistent color palette across all slides.
