Instagram has grown to be one of the best platforms for businesses to generate leads. Its visual nature and large user base make it an ideal hub for brands to connect with potential customers, especially these days where digital marketing has become rampant. Conversion becomes easier when you have a large pool of leads. So, how can we help?

Instagram offers a variety of engaging ad formats to suit your marketing needs. You can choose from photo ads, which are perfect for showcasing your products visually, video ads for dynamic storytelling, and story ads, which appear seamlessly in users' stories, creating an immersive experience for viewers.
You'll have to determine your goal for the ads first, whether it's to increase brand awareness, drive website traffic or generate conversions. Once you have a specific goal in mind, you can track and measure your ad performance through various metrics accordingly. Among the key metrics to consider are reach, impressions, clicks, and cost per conversion. You can find these metrics in your Ads Manager dashboard by clicking on the individual ad sets or campaigns.
It starts with the basics, creating a business profile on Instagram. This enables you to access features such as analytics and advertising capabilities. Once your business profile is set up, you can start thinking about how to effectively advertise on Instagram.
Top-performing Instagram ads are those that resonate with your target audience. By creating visually appealing and relevant content, you can catch the attention of potential customers and urge them to take action. Features such as clickable links in your bio, shoppable tags and the swipe-up feature in stories all make it easier for users to purchase from your business directly through the app.
Absolutely! Much like how Facebook ads function, Instagram allows you to utilise advanced targeting options to reach a specific audience. You can create custom audiences based on demographics, interests, behaviours and more. Advanced targeting options also include lookalike audiences, which helps you reach new users that are similar to your existing customers.
The guidelines for content on Instagram are clear and encompass various aspects. Users must have proper rights for the content they post. Spamming and illegal activities, including supporting terrorism or selling firearms and drugs, are strictly prohibited. Instagram also bans certain types of images such as graphic or violent content, nudity and hate speech.
