Cincinnati, Ohio based IM Consultant Services has recently issued a comprehensive list of the best Instagram marketing campaigns as well as a number of useful tips and guidelines on how to achieve brand recognition and visibility with the help of the photo sharing platform.
According to an article published on Forbes, Instagram now has more than one billion active users. In 2018 alone, the social media giant generated an estimated $5.5 billion in US advertising revenue, which is a 70% increase from the previous year. Furthermore, Instagram is said to be valued at nearly 30% of Facebook’s net mobile advertising revenue, and this is predicted to increase up to 40% in 2020.
With brands seeing Instagram influencers as living billboards, it is common to see articles on how online personalities earn anywhere between tens up to the hundreds of thousands of dollars per instagram post. According to Vox, those with a million or less followers can get up to $10,000 per post, and elite influencers with more than a million fans can demand up to $250,000 for a single post. On the other hand, people with smaller followings, often referred to as nano-influencers, can make between $30,000 to $60,000 a year, while micro-influencers can get anywhere from $40,000 to $100,000 annually.
“Instagram is one of the best platforms to start with your business’ online marketing campaign. However, since it is currently dominated by the big names in the industry, you need an expert and excellent strategy in order to achieve brand recognition and visibility online,” said Mike Marko, CEO of IM Consultant Services, and author of the post in question.
According to Marko, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and local businesses primarily need to observe and learn how big brands run their Instagram pages. He explained that some of the notable brands with excellent Instagram marketing campaigns are National Geographic, Samsung, AirBnB, Xbox, Adidas, Tesla, Old Spice, and Sonic Creamery. He encourages business owners to go and take a look at these organisations’ feeds and see how these companies use effective advertising elements to capture their target audience’s attention. Observing how they use different strategies and themes to play to their strengths can be beneficial for a business looking to dip their toes in the field of Instagram marketing.
“The best Instagram marketing campaigns often have a bit of cleverness and cheekiness to them, because humor stimulates interest. In addition, exploring human emotions is also a very effective way to connect to your target audience. This strategy usually results in good engagement, which is very beneficial for your brand image. Invoking universally accepted ideologies like greatness, self-improvement, and acceptance is also a theme that you might want to explore because most of us are prey to our insecurities, and we are constantly looking for ways to overcome them,” Marko said.
