Ask a questionContact BharatPeopleHow often should a small business post on Instagram?
Consistency beats volume. 3–4 quality posts a week, including Reels, is a realistic target for most small teams.
Which platform should I start with?
Start where your customers already spend time. For most local businesses in India, that means Instagram and WhatsApp; for B2B, LinkedIn.
Do I need to post in Hindi?
If your customers speak Hindi or a regional language, posting in it (or in Hinglish) can feel more personal and reach people English posts miss.
