If your business is not on Instagram, you have no idea how much you are missing out on. Maybe your business is doing just fine and you do not see the point of advertising your merchandise on social media or maybe you are in all the other platforms, Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, etc. and since they all look the same to you, you see no need to join yet another. These are flawed assumptions since first; a social media platform like Instagram can help your business grow even more and secondly, all social media platforms are not alike.
With visual content becoming more popular on social media, Instagram is the fastest growing social media platform with over 300 million users and rising. Therefore, when used for business, it offers a competitive edge in the market. Benefits of using Instagram for business include the following:-
Increased traffic to your local business or website
Your Instagram account can easily surpass your search driven traffic if you have your website’s link on your bio. When you have amazing Instagram content, people with thirst for more will visit your website to learn more about you and your business.
You only need to add a direct link to your website on your Instagram profile, post amazing photos and for each photo add a caption alongside catchy hash tags and relating emoji.
Increased engagement
Instagram offers 10 times more user engagement than Twitter and Facebook! Here is why. With Instagram, it is all about images and very little text, and as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. The pictures do all the instant talking which in fast-paced world is preferable to reading long posts on Facebook and twitter.

Another secret is that posting photos on Instagram gives you a choice to simultaneously share them on Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, Tumblr, Flickr and Email increasing user engagement on all these platforms.
Free advertising

The incentive of overnight popularity motivates people to drive your product photos viral.
