We love Instagram.  As a visually-focused business, Instagram is our favorite way to share what we’ve been working on! We can share visuals of the work we do — as well as written stories or descriptions of the work. When used well, Instagram can be a great way to introduce people to your business and what you have to offer! Today, we’re excited to share a round-up of the best hashtags to market your business — along with a few extra Instagram tips and tricks!

1. Use your Instagram analytics.  One key to Instagram success is knowing your audience — knowing that people will be using Instagram at diverse times throughout the day. Explore your analytics to determine when your audience is online or most active, and post accordingly. We use Planoly to visually plan, schedule, and automatically post our Instagram posts — and it works perfectly!  
2. Be true to yourself.  Do what works for you and your brand on Instagram. We are human, so we definitely understand feeling the pressure to do what will make you “successful” on Instagram — but trust us when we say, being true to yourself feels much better!
3. Comment genuinely.  There is something so special about receiving a personalized comment.  Our philosophy is: Give more than you receive!  Comment genuinely to others.

Below, you’ll find a collection of the best hashtags to use to market your business!  We have used each again and again in our Instagram marketing, and we hope you’ll find success while using them, too!
