Using Storytelling Through Your Pictures. It really works and those who do it right reap the rewards fast. 

One popular way for a business to grab attention on Instagram is to tell your business story through photographs. Uploading a series of new photographs daily showing your employees at work creating your products can help provide the personalization customers look for nowadays. This can also be accomplished through Instagram video, even if you have to be extremely terse.

But don't let your entire story be all about business and no play. Show the off times of your business when you're all having fun. It can even be events away from your headquarters to show what you all do together when not at work. By doing this, you give a complete picture of your business philosophy that includes taking quality time to get away for other things.

The Use of Hashtags

You may find the use of hashtags annoying on social media, but they're very important to a business. Instagram uses them as much as Twitter and Facebook does. Pick some of the ones that are trending high and post pictures from your business related to the hashtag. It can get your business noticed even more and show that you and your staff have a sense of humor.

This doesn't mean you shouldn't use more serious, industry-related hashtags to attract people related to your line of business. Especially if you're attending an industry conference, using hashtags in your Instagram photos will help you get found by those attending.

You can gauge all the analytics about hashtags and trends through Instagram's offshoot site Nitrogram.
