Exploring a few pathways to build your own supplement brand/company on Instagram

In the current era of social media marketing, Instagram has become a boon for small businesses to tap into new markets.

Growing and cultivating an audience is an imperative for any business. If you’re a supplement brand or distributor, it’s important to find your niche and stick to it.

• You need to create an aesthetic that people love to see on their timeline/dashboard. Before posting a photo of your supplement, question yourself whether a stranger would find it informative/interesting or not.
• Some brands use their supplement design/layout for style assistance. You can also use a custom filter on your photos.
• Make sure you aren’t posting the same thing too much. Over-posting ruins your image and connection, making you look desperate.
• Instagram has Insights, which is a beautiful function. It shows the actions you take on your account throughout the week. You get denominations like emails, website clicks, profile visits, impressions, reach, the location of your audience, and what they look for in your product.
