It is also a great way to discover and connect with other professionals in my area. > > **Cons**: I find the algorithms show me the same content over and over again. I would also prefer to see more of the content of people I choose to follow and less influencer content. > > Instagram helps me immensely with gaining exposure to new clients and other professionals for my business as a petsitter/dogwalker. ----- ### "great customer interaction tool" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *March 4, 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Gives us an easy platform to share what is happening at our roastery - announce new products and interact with our customers. > > **Cons**: The algorithm has changed quite a bit since starting with the app and we've found it a lot more challenging to reach out customers with how instagram now organizes new posts and content. > > We used instagram as a the main piece of our social branding campaign. Both to post shots of our process and also to accounce promotions and new products. We have also tried boosting posts and paying for visibility. Recently we have neglected continuing to build our profile but it has been circled as a point of focus for 2026 ----- ### "Instagram is the best networking social app for creative industries." — 5.0/5 > **Hannah** | *January 11, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: VERY easy app interface, extremely intuitive.
