A useful tip when considering using hashtags is to start small. Aim posts in 1 niche, and, target a specific audience. Joining in with larger conversations about your business and product niche will give you an insight into what a client really wants.

When selecting your business area, learn your client base. Add photos to your hashtag post. This will appeal to your audience and assist with the growth of sales.
