Why you should use Instagram for social media marketing: The real reason


You might or should ask for suggestions from digital marketers about the most preferable option for social media marketing. Undoubtedly most of them will make their call for Instagram. Within just 8 years, Instagram has become one of the fastest billion-dollar company and is still growing at a very high speed, per day! But here’s an obvious question, ‘Why?’. Why Instagram marketing is so much of a hype?



 A brief reply to this question is that Instagram has reduced the ‘urge’ of a common man who previously wondered most of the time about celebrities; what they eat, what they wear, and other questions related to their lifestyles. Let me make this clearer by considering a case-

 You are a big fan of Dwayne Johnson, wondering whole day about him but unfortunately, unable to visualize him and his lifestyle except some movies and interviews. But all the things get fully changed after the birth of Instagram. You can now follow Dwayne, visualize him and even express your views on his every view.

 Watch the whole scenario from a perspective.  Instagram somehow deals with one of the most important factors of a person’s life, i.e., emotions. No other social media platform has been able to trigger this much amount of emotions in a user’s experience. It amplifies the desire of a common man to live a similar lifestyle as that of his idol. You can imagine the height of marketing when emotions get mixed with it. Companies which are willing or promise to increase the living standards of people are building their brand day by day.

Instagram also gives rise to a whole new and unique method of advertisement which allows you to reach more people within a limited budget. There are so many people who are not celebrities or any famous personalities still they are quite popular on Instagram by having a good number of followers. Research some of these popular people, look how much their posts are like your business niche or other important advertisement factors and at last offer them your product’s sponsorship. You might hesitate to adopt this method but with researched planning, you will be able to reach more people at a very low price as compared to professional methods. Most of the businesses (including MNC’s) around the world are practicing this method successfully, ultimately generating more sales.
At the end of 2018, Instagram has crossed the number of 1 billion active users and the predicted news says that it will soon overtake Facebook. It contains a perfect amount of emotions and easy user interface.

Apparently, you might have got the main reason as to why you should use Instagram for social media marketing!

Learning from Gardening

While composing status messages, just for fun, I simply jot down anything random that comes to my mind at the moment. Here is the latest FB message i posted few seconds ago. Tushar Mangl learns a lot from his gardening routine. Even when his plants die, he simply feels bad and then goes about to plan for new plants. Mostly because an empty space does not look that good. That is life for you. People will always go away from your life, at one point or another. But you cannot always leave the places vacan t. New plants have to be placed. Optimism has to exist for new flowers to bloom, new leaves to grow. Now, FB only gives me 422 characters to say my point. But my dear blogger, a companion of several years gives me much better platform to elaborate my thoughts. You see, in a flower bed I maintain near stairs of my house I had planted bougainvillea plants on either sides of the bed. As fate would have it, and given my nature of getting too attached to livi...

A suggestion to break the loop of guilt, isolation, and emotional burnout?

Caught in a guilt spiral, isolating quietly, and wondering why rest doesn’t heal you? You’re not lazy—you’re carrying layers of unprocessed emotion and spiritual exhaustion. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reset. Let’s explore why you still feel stuck despite good intentions, and discover rituals, reflections, and real reconnection to help you come home to yourself. First Published on 20/06/2008 14:30 Second edition Published on 04/07/2025 12:51 Why do you keep spiraling despite good intentions? Let me ask you this. Have you ever written out a self-care plan so perfectly, maybe in a brand-new notebook—drink more water, meditate, go to therapy—and yet by day three you’re numbly binge-scrolling, wondering what’s broken now ? Yeah. Same. We don’t spiral because we’re undisciplined or lazy. We spiral because the emotional weight we’re carrying goes deeper than we admit. It's not about a missed workout or failing to reply to that one text. It's the inner tug-of...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
