9 Snapchat Ideas for Brands

1) Geofilters

Geofilters are a fun way to share a time and place with your followers. Remember, brand social media accounts take followers to places they can’t go themselves, so a Geofilter from an interesting place gives your brand personality and drives its cool factor.

Here’s an example of a Snapchat Story using a Geofilter. The New York Times (@thenytimes) shared a Story from Hyde Park in London about one reporter’s visit to a new exhibit at Kensington Palace. Pretty cool, right?

Try using a Geofilter the next time you’re snapping from a unique location your followers might be interested in. You can access Geofilters by recording a video or taking a photo, then swiping left on your screen until the filter you want to use appears.

Brands can make Geofilters featuring their logo and branding to pop up around its facilities by submitting them to Snapchat — learn more about that process here.

While you might not have access to red carpets, try snapping from your next company event or a conference you attend to give your followers the inside scoop.

Find event tags using the same process as Geofilters — swipe left until you find the tag you want to use. And like Geofilters, businesses can create unique tags for events and meetings — learn how to do it here.
