When to Tag on Instagram?

If you're sharing user-generated-content, an @ mention is a must. For example, when I shared this post featuring Nicte I made sure to include a photo tag and an @ mention in the caption. If you're going to feature another brand or person on your Instagram feed, make sure to give them a heads up.
