Get to know your audience.

The first rule here is to know who your audience is. You have to make sure that the video or photo that you are going to post is tailored for them. Naturally, these users would not be interested if you are going to post content that is unrelated to the jewelry industry. Only post content that your target customers would actually want to see.

Be proud of your brand's theme.

One way to stand out in Stories is by using your brand's theme and colors. For example, if your logo has a pink palette, try to post photos or videos with these colors. Or if you sell minimalist jewelry, go minimalist with your posts as well. Doing so and being consistent with your content will allow you to drive awareness through Instagram's feature.

Optimize your videos for sound-on viewing.

Don't just post ordinary videos, optimize them by adding good upbeat music or a voice over. Some users love watching videos with sound. Don't forget to add an emoji that says "sound on" to urge users to listen to your video's audio.

Always post thought-provoking content.

Customers like it when the content is mysterious, striking, and aesthetic. So make sure to post only the best looking photos of your jewelry items. As for videos, do take time in editing them; leave your users in awe with beautifully crafted videos.

As an added tip, watch the Stories of your competitors. Check their theme and posting styles, as well as their posting times. Test if these work for you, and adjust if they don't.
