Focusing more on reels lately, anyone else seeing better results from this?

Been working on growing my agency's Instagram for a while now. Tried a lot of things: consistent posting, stories, carousels. But honestly the biggest shift came when I stopped treating reels as an afterthought and made them the main focus.

The reason is simple. Reels still get pushed to people who don't follow you. Nothing else on the platform does that as consistently right now. For a service business like mine, that reach matters a lot.

I went through a short course to tighten up my approach. It mostly helped me think about structure and hooks more seriously, which changed how I plan content now.

Still figuring out the right posting rhythm though. For those of you running accounts for local or niche businesses, how often are you posting reels per week? And do you script them out or keep it more spontaneous?
