How to sell your products directly on Instagram

If you don’t live under a rock you must have realised that Instagram in Oman is very popular. It is not as popular as Facebook (and will never be) but it is way bigger than Twitter.
By now any company should already have a strong presence on Facebook so the time has come to focus on Instagram and maximize on the fans. So when you post a photo of a product why not give your fans the ability to purchase right then and there...on Instagram itself?

That’s what my favourite shop in Muscat just did. TOTEM, being one of the few shops in Oman where you can buy stuff online, and being the first shop who introduced a Facebook store in Oman, it has now added another ‘social shopping’ point, this time on TOTEM’s Instagram account.
How does it work? First you need to register to shop social at TOTEM (TOTEM provided the link in their Instagram profile description).

Then when TOTEM posts on Instagram an item for sale you simply need to comment “sold”. 

You’ll then immediately get an invoice emailed to you; follow the link and pay securely with your credit card. And you can then collect your item at the shop or have it delivered to you. 


As simple as that, in just a few clicks you can buy your favourite product!

TOTEM blog has also posted an FAQ, check it out as it is very useful if you intend to sell or buy on Instagram. Happy selling!
