Here are a few ideas to make the most out of Instagram Shopping products to help reach new customers this Valentine's day and beyond.

Create a Valentine’s Day campaign to promote specific products.

The best part about Valentine’s Day? It’s no longer just a day to show love and gratitude to your romantic partner. From children and best friends to furry companions and even treats for yourself, the ‘significant other’ today represents many different types of customers.

Creating a visually appealing Valentine’s Day campaign allows you to engage in the conversation of the moment and help your shop stand out with relevant or themed products that you want to focus on promoting during this time.

Think outside of the box this year and treat collections like gift guides in order to help customers decide what to get that special someone. A few ideas could be “gifts for your pupentine,” “gifts just for you” or “gifts for your sweetheart.”
