Business profiles finally coming to Instagram



The long wait it over. Business has finally landed on Instagram, It was announced by Instagram on their official blog that profiles that have been recognized as belonging to business will receive tools to help measure engagement with customers and decide how the business account should communicate with customers. It was also written on the blog post that the project was confirmed after hundreds of interviews with businesses, helping them to stand out, get insights and find new customers, all within the app.

The post also discussed some benefits of a business profile like giving the customer an option to call, text, or email the business with the help of ‘contact’ button. In addition, the contact button also help provide directions for customers who are looking to step into the shop.

According to TechCrunch’s report, this development may also provide business profiles to turn their Instagram posts into ads. And due to Instagram’s ties with Facebook, business owners can define and save custom audiences.


These business profiles will be launched first in the US, Australia and New Zealand in the counting months and will be globally available in all regions by the end of the year.
