Tips

Jones says that using quotes as captions isn’t as popular as it used to be—people today usually favor more of a raw or real vibe rather than a polished one. But she adds these types of captions are still popular in some segments—“I see my life coach and business coaching clients still do really well if they’re self-aware in how they present it. It has to almost feel like an 'aha!' moment when you’re sharing it versus the warm and fuzzy.”^{[9]
