How much should I share?
Try one useful frame a day as a starting experiment. Keep it sustainable, then adjust using completion, exits and replies. Follower count alone cannot tell you the right frequency.
A new post deserves a second spotlight. A busy day has something worth sharing. Turn what’s happening in your business into a story people can tap into.
Your brand. Your moments. A little help from Flame.

“We now post at least daily across 20+ markets.”
“We use OhMyGen for our Meta ads and our social posts. It saves us thousands of dollars we used to spend on freelancers and photographers.”
Slide the numbers. Explore a weekly scenario.
Illustrative estimates — not a
forecast or your account’s actual results.
The 5% view rate and 2% interaction rate are editable example assumptions, not industry benchmarks. Replace them with your own insights.
Try one useful frame a day as a starting experiment. Keep it sustainable, then adjust using completion, exits and replies. Follower count alone cannot tell you the right frequency.
A question, a useful tip or one clear next step. Track replies, sticker interactions and link taps to learn what earns attention.
Stories can keep your brand present with your existing audience. Repeated views are opportunities to be seen, not proof of brand recall or new-follower growth.
Weekly frame views = followers × assumed views per frame (%) × frames per week. Interactions = frame views × assumed interaction rate (%). Results are rounded. Rates stay fixed in this simple scenario; it does not model fatigue, changing reach, non-follower views or unique weekly reach. One frame means one individual story image or clip.
The starting rhythm is an experiment, not an optimum. For background on consistency and measuring performance, see Buffer’s Instagram Stories guide ↗. The calculator rates are not taken from that guide.

Your latest post.
A perfect starting point.
Use a new or existing post as the starting point for a story. Give it a short introduction, highlight what matters and invite people to see the full post.
A post you’ve published, something that’s happening or a moment from your everyday work.
Share the photo, the context and what you want people to know. You bring the moment; Flame helps shape the story.
Review the visual, wording and next step. Check the details before sharing with your audience.
Sometimes “here’s what we’re working on” is the beginning of a great story.
Yes. Start with a new or existing post and use the story to highlight it, add a short introduction and invite people to take another look.
Start with a real moment instead: an event, an update, preparations for the day or something happening behind the scenes. Add your context and photos to shape the story.
