Instagram quietly released one of its most powerful growth tools and most creators still aren’t using it.

In this episode, Reggie and Vitaly break down Instagram Trial Reels and how posting to non-followers first can give your content a second life without impacting your existing audience.

They explain how trial reels use a separate algorithm, why this allows faster A/B testing of hooks and CTAs, and how even creators with a single video can leverage this feature for more reach, more engagement, and smarter posting.

The episode also covers bulk scheduling via Vista Social, common mistakes that reduce reach, and practical tips to maximize performance.

If you want to grow your Instagram audience, test content faster, and get more views without guesswork, this is your episode.
