You will see the Instagram reel and shopping button shown at the bottom of the screen, where you can create captivating videos for their customers. It helps you out in boosting up your sale.

Keep it in mind, this addition is only updated in Brazil, France, Germany or Indian users and now has planned to roll out worldwide.

Go to Instagram Shopping

Since 2018, Instagram shopping is active but now it has been added to the main tab. So, everyone can reach it out more quickly. By changing this, Native Union, a technology company has successfully increased its traffic by 2,666% and Magnolia Boutique has increased its revenue by 20% every week.

Besides it, live shopping addition also creates a huge hype among the Instagram community. Because it displays how the products look well in real!

Unfortunately, it is only updated for the US people in August 2020, the rest of the world is still waiting for it.

Stay Tuned with Highlights Update

Do you know, Are the Instagram Highlights sounds like a mini-website?

Yes, because Instagram highlights tactfully represent the brand story, share good reviews and can tell the people how they buy products from you. In this way, you can build trust in the followers and grab more. Even though your previous highlights retrieve in your profile and you can add tweaks to it. Also, fill up your feed with fresh ones.

Start Using DMs

It is the best way to build up warm relationships between followers and startup business accounts. The more you get in touch with the people, the more you grow. But How to make it productive?

Only chatting with people doesn’t matter if you can’t track it. Yes, track your chats by making a simple excel or google sheet or use different kinds of CRM tracker e.g Hubspot. Both are helpful to guide which customer has the potential of buying your products. So, DM your potential customers on weekly basis to keep them updated on your products.

Engaging the audience in your DMS, use energetic story stickers and send short exciting reminders to them. In this way, you can make your clients fresh and active!

Take a Leverage of Instagram Insights

Nothing makes your thriving struggle more streamlined than this, because, it is a secret eye of your daily workings, which identify exactly what your customers demand?

So, check your post insights daily, weekly or at least once a month, otherwise you are wasting your time on generating up new content ideas. The insight metrics help to rate the content, hashtags, and active followers with numbers (1, 2,3 )

In 2021, make a habit of checking the insights on daily basis.

Generate SEO-Optimized Profile

As we look back in Nov 2020, there are specific keywords you can use on a search on Instagram. It means, fewer people will reach out.

But In 2021, Instagram has allowed you to use your keywords on posts content, profile bios, guides etc. keyword ranking will be raised as more people will use it.

I hope all the 2021 tips and tricks will give a clear direction in running online businesses and helps you to utilize the time at its best. Instagram is a new profitable resource among all. So use it tactfully.
