Should I switch my business Instagram to personal?
If you're a business that doesn't have a face behind your brand, or you want to sell directly from your feed, switching to an Instagram business account might be the right way to go for you. But if you're a personal brand or business, I would seriously consider keeping a personal profile.
Why can't I switch from personal to a business account on Instagram?
Make sure your profile is set to Public! If your profile is currently set to Private on Instagram, you won't be able to switch to a business profile. Tap “Continue As” to connect the Facebook Page. If you don't see your business' Facebook Page as an option, make sure that you're listed as an admin in the settings menu.
