Shop Talk Social Media

Just made myself an Instagram account yesterday and I can’t believe it’s taken me so long! Seems like it’s a good way to get your images seen by people even if they don’t follow you, I’ve had several likes on photos already. I must admit I had a bit of help from my friend with hashtags though :smiley:

I get more likes from people who don’t follow me to be honest. I really like it. I follow some awesome people and I just love scrolling through at the things they’re doing/taking photos of. Good luck with it! :slight_smile:

I like it because of all the different social media, it seems less pressured, and as a result more fun. I can’t be bothered with Facebook hardly at all… way too many hoops to jump through. Instagram seems simpler… at least for now. Hope it doesn’t get ruined by the FB.

There is a field for Instagram in your dashboard where you can add your Instagram account, but it’s not yet set up to show on your shop. It will be soon I think.

To keep this thread at the top and prominent Instagram is great tool for sharing, curating and promoting ourselves.

Just a note, some of you may already know but It never hurts.

You should be posting a few items to Instagram everyday if you can. Once a day is perfectly fine, show new pieces, Work in progress, inspirational items or photos.

They don’t have to be exceptional images, just post something. I find it hard to practice what I preach but adding something regularly is a good habit to get into - on all soclal media and blogs.
