Instagram is your best friend if you’re running a food business with zero marketing budget. Here’s how to make it work for you:
📸 1. Post Real Photos, Not Just Product Shots:
People love behind-the-scenes! Show your kitchen prep, team, or even packing—this builds trust.
🧩 2. Use Content Buckets:
Rotate between 3-4 types of content:
- Menu or product photos
- Customer reviews or UGC (user-generated content)
- BTS (behind the scenes)
- Offers and announcements
đź”– 3. Use Hashtags That Work:
Examples: #ahmedabadfoodie, #homemadefoodindia, #indianfoodlover, #supportlocalfood, #foodreel
🗓️ 4. Post Consistently:
Even 3 posts a week work. Use free tools like “Meta Business Suite” to schedule content.
📲 5. Use Stories & Reels for Offers:
Reels get more reach. Try recipe tips, food plating videos, or even quick voiceover promos. No team needed—just your phone!
💡 Pro Tip: Use BrandBite’s built-in templates to create posts in minutes—no graphic designer needed!
