What is the ‘This or That’ challenge on Instagram?

This or That pits two different choices against each other for the user to choose from. This can be yourself as a business or your followers if you offer the template out. Generally these choices offered will be based around a theme such as fashion, food or travel locations.

How do the templates work?

Users will upload a template to their Instagram stories and circle their chosen answers via the app. They will then share the completed version with their audience on Instagram. The great thing is that you can also do this on Facebook Stories too which is a benefit as you may have different followers on different platforms.
