To ensure your brand is well-protected on Instagram, consider the following best practices:

  • Trademark your brand: Secure intellectual property rights to prevent unauthorized use of your logo, name, or content.
  • Create your own business account: Ensuring you claim your brand’s Instagram handle and any similar variations can help prevent impersonation or misuse.
  • Monitor regularly: Use Instagram’s built-in features or work with Trama to actively track your brand across the platform.
  • Respond quickly: If brand misuse is detected, report it immediately and act swiftly to take down infringing content.
