One thing is clear for local businesses across Guwahati and Assam: in 2025, if you’re not advertising on Facebook and Instagram, you’re leaving money on the table.
Whether you own a boutique in Fancy Bazaar, a cloud kitchen in Six Mile, or a beauty salon in Dibrugarh, Meta’s ad platforms can transform your visibility and drive real, local footfall.
Here’s why Facebook & Instagram ads are must-haves for small businesses today.
📍 Hyperlocal Targeting = Relevant Reach
Facebook and Instagram allow you to target people within a specific radius of your shop. Want to reach people within 3 km of your bakery in Beltola? Done. Want to show ads only to 25–40-year-olds who love desserts? Also possible.
📌 Target Options Include:
- Location (city, zip code, even street radius)
- Age & gender
- Interests (beauty, food, travel, etc.)
- Behaviors (frequent online shoppers, page followers)
- Language (great for Assamese/Bengali audiences)
You’re not shouting in the dark but speaking to the right crowd.
📲 Visual First = Brand Recall
Facebook and Instagram are visual platforms, which means you can showcase:
- Product photos
- Behind-the-scenes clips
- Customer testimonials
- Reels of offers or new arrivals
- Story ads with swipe-up actions
Even if users don’t click the first time, your brand stays in their minds, building awareness over time.
💰 Affordable & Scalable
Unlike traditional ads (newspapers, banners), you don’t need ₹10,000 to start. With just ₹200–₹300 per day, you can run an effective campaign for:
- Product launches
- Event promotions
- Festival offers
- New customer acquisition
Ads can be scaled based on your budget. If one ad performs well, increase the spend to multiply the results.
🔄 Track Everything in Real-Time
Meta Ads give you complete control and live insights. See what’s working and optimize it:
- Click-through rates (CTR)
- Website Traffic
- Store visit estimates
- Sales conversions (if linked with your website/WhatsApp)
You don’t have to guess. You can measure results and tweak campaigns in real-time.
🤝 Power Tip: Combine Ads with WhatsApp
Run “Click to WhatsApp” ads to let users message you directly. This is perfect for:
- Booking appointments
- Placing orders
- Asking product-related queries
It shortens the buyer journey and boosts trust.
