Decide what products you offer. You need to think about the goods that will attract Instagram users and do market research. Remember that your product should stand out, such as something fresh or different.
- Most of the merchandise sold on Instagram falls under the beauty and fashion categories. These items usually have a high success rate, as long as you offer a unique product.

Find inspiration. Find a successful online store on Instagram, see how they operate and what makes them good business. Don’t copy their style or apply their ideas exactly, just use it as an example to inspire you.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cd/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px- Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cd/Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Sign up for a shop on Instagram. You need to choose a username that is unique and impressive, but not too wordy or difficult to remember. It is better to choose a name that is easy to write and avoid using too many numbers, so that potential customers can easily find you.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c2/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px- Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c2/Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Set your store’s logo as your profile picture. Add your store’s logo to your new Instagram account and set it as your profile picture.
- If you don’t have a logo and can’t create your own, contact a graphic designer. A knowledgeable and creative enough professional will design you a professional and impressive logo. Or you can use free logo maker software online.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d9/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d9/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Increase followers. Every follower is a potential customer. You should check out more online about ways to get as many followers as possible. If you are a beginner, you can try:
- Link Instagram account to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, etc. Use all the social media accounts you have to promote your store.
- Follow other random accounts, especially those you think could be potential customers.
- Be friendly and respond to all inquiries.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6c/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6c/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Maintain an attractive photo library. You need to make sure the images are always at the highest quality.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/dd/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/dd/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add hashtags. Online sellers often use hashtags, such as #forsale or #sale. In addition, hashtags are also used to describe the type of goods. For example, you can use hashtags like #beauty, #makeup, #lipstick, and so on for lipstick products. Adding hashtags will also help photos get more “likes”.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/03/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-16.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/03/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-16.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Active activity. You should not neglect the store. Update your photos every day and don’t be afraid to repost your products.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/79/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-17.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-17.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/79/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-17.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-17.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Convince others to promote your product. You can donate products to bloggers or celebrities in your community in exchange for promoting posts on their feed. This way you will have more buyers.
- The best way to reach these people is to leave a comment with contact information below their Instagram photo. Ask them if you can send the product to them.
- You’ll have more success with this method if you find celebrities who often post gifts from shops on Instagram.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1f/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-18.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an- Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-18.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1f/Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram- Step-18.jpg/v4-728px-Establish-an-Online-Shop-through-Instagram-Step-18.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Get feedback from customers. You can politely ask for visual feedback from buyers after they receive the product. Post any feedback and cultivate a positive impression of your store.
Advice
- As you gain more followers and customers, never miss out on interacting with them on Instagram. Like and comment on people’s photos to keep your store in the spotlight.
- Strive to provide professional and courteous service. Even if you’re running an Instagram business, it’s no exception to standards of professional conduct. Serve your customers kindly, politely and without being annoyed when pushed by them.
