Successful Businesses On Instagram – What They Do Right

The rules for success in the Instagram community as with any social network platform are very simple. Audience engagement, providing relevant and valuable content, and positive contributions to the community are the very basics.

Successful businesses on Instagram do just those things while maximizing every aspect of them to set themselves apart, connect with a targeted audience, and build a large follower base. Here are some of the tools employed by successful businesses on Instagram:

  • Run video and/or photo competitions: This increases engagement, interest in the brand, as well as follower base. Top brands like Sony, Dunkin’ Donuts, and others use competitions to enhance their Instagram success.
  • Use Instagram profiles: This incorporates devices other than mobile thus reaching a wider audience. These can be maximized by adding a call to action to the pictures. Without a doubt, all the top brands are utilizing this tool to its fullest.
  • Offer discounts or promo codes: By doing this, not only will you engage a much larger audience but you will also increase your target market. Walgreens is one of the many successful companies that offer discounts to their followers on Instagram.
  • Put the spotlight on your customers: Spotlighting your customers in the different ways they interact with your brand is powerful advertising. Virgin America and its CEO Richard Branson use this method to achieve great Instagram success.
  • Use hashtags: These can also be added to your events so that attendees can easily follow and share on Instagram. No successful brand is lacking hashtags.

Great points here. In addition, allot of businesses will link up all of their social media accounts together. Instagram being one of them. That way one post goes out to all but in addition, the ability to schedule posts for the future to go out. This way it helps keep your social media up to date.

I have a facebook page, youtube channel, twitter account and an instagram account. I may have sent out 10 tweets in the past 9 years and only have about 1 million views after 5 years and 144 videos. I have something here and I need to learn about the future scheduling function and most importantly, how to link all my social media accounts together. Thanks for the post, good info.

I created an Instagram account a long time ago, however, I never used it. Recently, I came to know that Instagram account can be monetized to earn revenue. If you are Instagram influence, you can place ads and make money from those ads. I thought Instagram was just a social media for posting photos, however, recently I discovered that you can promote your business using instagram.

To be honest, this is the first time that I learned that you can do business on Instagram. The first thing about Instagram that I learned was the influencer. And that made me create an Instagram account just to test it. And now it is interesting to know that you can use Instagram for your business. That’s goes to show that the Instagram account is important when you have an online business because that is also a social media network.
