As social media marketing has become a central foundation of digital marketing strategy, many organizations have focused most of their energy on the two leading platforms, Facebook and Twitter. As many may have noticed, this has led to an influx of enormous social campaigns and increasing competition across the board. As a result, it’s not too uncommon to get buried beneath the big-budget social madness within these online communities. However, social media has turned the corner with the emergence of Instagram, an under-utilized platform that can send your mobile marketing ROI through the roof.

Brandon Whalen, marketing manager at Room 214, knows a thing or two about the brand-building capabilities of Instagram. His class with the Online Marketing Institute, Instagram for Mobile Marketing ROI, emphasizes how leveraging sharable, visual content through this platform can positively impact brand loyalty, increase user engagement, and build your community. In fact, the very community that many digital marketers seek through reigning social media platforms is largely active on Instagram.
