These stories are meant to give a behind-the-scenes look, capture special moments or share temporary updates without staying permanently on your profile.

While a standard message stays on your profile permanently (unless you delete it), a Story disappears after 24 hours. Posts are often used for important updates, announcements or content you want to share over a long period of time, while Stories are ideal for more informal, time-limited or temporary updates. In addition, Stories appear at the top of the feed in a separate bar, giving them extra visibility.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/sentimental.lijm.amsterdam\/team\/#contact-us\" class=\"btn btn__border__blue__green icon_btn mt-1 mb-3\" target=\"_blank\">Need help?<\/a>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"col-md-4 offset-md-1 position-relative\">\n                        <div class=\"img-wrapper\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sentimental.lijm.amsterdam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Instagram-Stories.002.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\">\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<style>\n    .btn-read-more,\n    .btn-read-less {\n        text-decoration: underline;\n    }\n\n    .block-image-text-small .row {\n        flex-direction: row-reverse;\n    }\n\n    .block-image-text-small .col-md-4 {\n        position: static;\n    }\n\n    .block-image-text-small .img-wrapper {\n        position: absolute;\n        top: 0;\n        right: 0;\n        bottom: 0;\n        left: 0;\n        display: flex;\n        align-items: center;\n        justify-content: center;\n    }\n\n    .block-image-text-small img {\n        max-width: 100%;\n        max-height: 100%;\n    }\n<\/style><div class=\"block block-image-text-small mt-sm-2  mt-5 mt-lg-8\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-12 col-lg-10 mx-auto\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-md-4  position-relative\">\n                        <div class=\"img-wrapper\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sentimental.lijm.amsterdam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Instagram-Stories.003.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\">\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"col-md-7 offset-md-1\">\n                        <h2>Instagram Stories capabilities<\/h2>\n                        <div class=\"full-text\">\n                            <p><ol>\n<li><strong>Stickers<\/strong>: Use interactive stickers such as polls, questions, quizzes and emoji sliders to get instant feedback from your followers and engage them with your content.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Place Links<\/strong>: You can add links to Stories, which is a direct way to drive traffic to your website or specific pages.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Creative Tools<\/strong>: Use various creative tools such as GIFs, music, and drawings to make your stories more vivid and personal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Highlights<\/strong>: Keep your most important stories as &#8220;highlights&#8221; on your profile so they remain available to your followers for longer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/sentimental.lijm.amsterdam\/team\/#contact-us\" class=\"btn btn__border__blue__green icon_btn mt-1 mb-3\" target=\"_blank\">I want to know more!<\/a>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"block block-image-text-small mt-sm-2  mt-5 mt-lg-8\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-12 col-lg-10 mx-auto\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-md-7\">\n                        <h2>Why use Instagram Stories?  <\/h2>\n                        <div class=\"full-text\">\n                            <p><ol>\n<li><strong>Engagement<\/strong>: Stories appear at the top of the feed, making them more immediate and more often seen.
