This is one of the biggest things that clients complain about and is something that we have to explain to them. You really can't create stories in Social Marketing Pro. You can really only upload and post a story that you create somewhere else. The only advantage of doing this in Canva or wherever is that you can schedule them and not need access to Instagram accounts as a user.
Story Image size is very specific 1080x1920. This really comes down to the editor functionality being able to perform more like Instagram or FB. Starting with a background that is sized properly and dropping an image on top of it. Still clients expect the to be able to Add Music, Text, Logos, Stickers and Effects.
As an added bonus this would be even better if you could drop a logo file on top of a photo in a normal post and be able to brand it. Posting across multiple platforms is great but in 2024 Stories and Reels are very important to companies marketing strategy.
What or is there a plan to update the editor functionality to accommodate this functionality that businesses want? I know that this has to be an issue for most partners and their clients.
