The most important ways to boost your business with Instagram is by posting daily. Too often, businesses sign up for an Instagram account but don’t post regularly. It is also important to find a balance between fun images and business images.
For instance, if you are a clothing boutique, post pictures of all your new items that you have received, but at the same time, include pictures of your pets, family, kids, funny quotes, just anything to make your followers know that you have a fun life outside of work.
This will make them look forward to your daily posts.

Advantages of Using Google Plus for Your Business
The main reason to have a Google Plus account is being visible to your customers. If you do not have this, you cannot expect to see a rise in profits or as much customer loyalty as you were hoping.
