With an astonishing 600 million users and growing, Instagram is definitely not the proverbial ‘new kid on the block’ anymore! Its recent acquisition by Facebook has only added more fuel to an already pumping engine as Instagram speeds towards becoming the most powerful networking tool worldwide. The platform is definitely the first choice for entrepreneurs to promote their brands and of course for personal branding, simply because it focuses on visual medial only, which is by far the most effective user engagement tool possible. If you still haven’t warmed up to its many benefits, here is how you can use Instagram for your personal and business branding purposes.
If you would like to get your products and brand seen by people worldwide and grow a strong customer base that directly relates to what you have to say, then Instagram is your magic spell. So how to execute this-
• Start with creating a profile
• Use an interactive and catchy profile picture
• Include a link to your bio/website for traffic generation
• Give a good theme and style to your account
• Your dashboard should look professional
• Start creating posts that hook customers
• Study other business pages that are using Instagram for branding
• Do a good use of hashtags (like Ninjas)
• Use Instagram tools to edit the picture (studies shows that the ‘Mayfair’ filter works great among followers)
• Live stream and videos work great for branding and storytelling
• Do not forget to interact with your audience
• Engage, leave comments and likes
• And mostly, have fun!
That’s it. Get started – your Instagram branding efforts will begin reaping positive results for you in no time at all!
