Instagram marketing agency that turns views into enquiries

We run Instagram for businesses in Europe and the US — strategy, daily content, Reels, DM automation and ads — and report on one number that matters: enquiries. Month one is setup, from month two the leads show up in the report.

What we do for you

  1. 01Strategy: audience, 5–7 competitors, content pillars and a 3-month plan — not a mood board.
  2. 02100–120 stories, 3–5 posts and 12–20 Reels a month, scripted with a hook, a payoff and a reason to DM.
  3. 03Reels built for the recommendation feed: retention-first scripts, subtitles, shot lists for your phone or our crew.
  4. 04DM funnels: automated welcome message, reply scripts, lead qualification and hand-off to your sales.
  5. 05Meta Ads inside the same plan: follower and enquiry campaigns, retargeting of video viewers and profile visitors.
  6. 06Monthly report: enquiries, cost per enquiry, follower growth, reach, Reels views, engagement — compared with plan.

What our Instagram marketing services include

Instagram marketing is four layers working on one goal — enquiries. Remove any layer and the result goes with it.

Strategy. We analyse your profile, your niche and 5–7 competitors: which formats repeat, which get comments and shares, where nobody is posting. We write the audience profile with objections, and a content matrix — product, expertise, trust and sales content — in a ratio set for your niche. An eyewear store and a B2B dessert factory need very different ratios.

Content. 100–120 stories, 3–5 posts and 12–20 Reels a month. A weekly plan, visuals in 2–3 variants, scripts with a hook in the first two seconds, a useful middle and a reason to send a DM. Footage is real — product, people, process — not stock images.

Growth. Reels built for the recommendation feed, automated welcome messages, outreach to competitor audiences, collaborations and Meta Ads for followers and enquiries. This is what separates Instagram marketing from Instagram management.

DMs and reporting. Reply scripts, lead qualification, hand-off to your sales team and a monthly report: enquiries, cost per enquiry, follower growth, reach, views, engagement rate.

How an Instagram management service works, week by week

  1. Week 1. Briefing, access through Meta Business Suite (no passwords), audit of your profile and competitors, strategy and a 3-month content matrix.
  2. Week 2. New bio and highlights, visual concept, the first nine posts, welcome-message automation.
  3. Weeks 3–4. First shoot or shot list for your team, first Reels, test of 3–4 formats, ads for followers and enquiries if the budget is approved.
  4. Month 2. We scale the formats that produced views and DMs, switch off the rest, add outreach and collaborations; first enquiries in the report.
  5. Month 3. Stable content rhythm, ads on warm audiences, a plan for the next quarter based on numbers, not feelings.

What grows an Instagram account in 2026

Instagram shows each post to a small sample first, measures retention, saves, shares and profile visits, and decides whether to keep distributing it. Growth therefore comes from three things, not from hashtags or “posting every day”.

  • Reels with retention. A video watched past 50% gets recommended. For Brendova Optyka, an eyewear store in Lviv, those were ASMR lens-crafting videos and daily client videos: the best Reel reached 161K views on an account that started with 864 followers.
  • A reason to write. Every script ends with a specific action: “DM us ‘price’”, “book a table via the link”. Without it, views never become enquiries. CROCO Factory’s “DM us” funnel brought 67 new café clients in a single month.
  • Ads on people who already saw you. Retargeting video viewers and profile visitors costs a fraction of cold traffic and produces most enquiries from month two onwards.

What does not work: bought followers (the algorithm stops showing content to a dead audience), mass-following (action blocks) and giveaways (prize hunters, then unfollows and a reach drop).

Results from Instagram accounts we run

  • Brendova Optyka, Lviv. Eyewear store with an in-house lab. In 7 months DM enquiries grew from 33 to 371 a month; follower growth went from +188 to +942 a month.
  • Permanent Sergienko, Utrecht. PMU studio starting from zero in a new country. 30 new clients a month, a one-month waiting list, 30.5K profile views in 30 days. Full case study.
  • OWNER, Kyiv. Restaurant-bar in the city centre. Reach +508%, 150+ table bookings a month. Full case study.
  • Carneed, USA. Car dealership. Around 60 DM enquiries every month from Instagram, reach +273%.

All numbers come from the clients’ own analytics and are published with their consent. More in case studies.

Who the service is for

Businesses that have a product people already buy, no time to run the account in-house, and at least three months to see the funnel work: restaurants and cafés, clinics and dentists, beauty studios, eyewear and retail, schools, e-commerce brands and manufacturers selling to other businesses. You give us 40 minutes a week for approvals and filming; we handle everything from strategy to DM replies.

It is not for a product that does not exist yet, for “nice posts” without a lead goal, or for accounts that need results in two weeks — those requests we honestly refer elsewhere.

Pricing

A personal proposal after a free audit of your account. The price depends on content volume, production (your footage, a creator in your city or our remote production) and whether ads are included; ad spend is paid to Meta separately and shown in the report as its own line. KPIs are agreed in writing before the start. For a comparison of what an agency, a freelancer and an in-house manager cost in the US and Europe, see agency vs freelancer vs in-house.

Frequent questions

What does an Instagram marketing agency actually do?

An Instagram marketing agency plans, produces and promotes your account so that it brings enquiries, not only followers. At Garsally that means a strategy and content pillars, a weekly content plan, scripts and visuals for stories, posts and Reels, a DM funnel with reply scripts, Meta Ads inside the same plan and a monthly report with enquiries and their cost. Management without promotion — just posting — is not what we sell.

How much do Instagram marketing services cost?

We price each account after a free audit, because the cost depends on content volume, whether we film or direct your team, and whether ads are included. KPIs are agreed in writing before the start. Ad spend is paid by you to Meta directly: for a local business we recommend starting at $300–500 a month. Our rates are well below what a comparable US or Western European agency charges for the same scope.

How long until Instagram brings clients?

First enquiries usually arrive in month two. Month one is setup: profile, highlights, the first nine posts, strategy and the first shoot; month two is Reels and ads for followers and enquiries; month three is scaling the formats that worked. Permanent Sergienko in Utrecht was booked a month ahead after three months, starting from zero in a new country.

We are in the US or EU — how do you produce content remotely?

Three options, often combined: we direct your team’s phone footage with shot lists and scripts; we find a UGC creator or videographer in your city; or we produce remotely with design, motion and AI-assisted visuals. Strategy, scripts, editing, ads and DM handling are done by our team in Kyiv. Carneed, a US car dealer, gets around 60 DM enquiries a month this way.

Do we need ads if we hire you for management?

For most businesses, yes — at least $300 a month. Organic reach on Instagram in 2026 comes from Reels and is unstable; ads deliver your content to a warm audience by location and interests and bring back people who already visited the profile. CROCO Factory, a B2B dessert maker, had 9.5K views a month before; with a content system and ads it got 67 new café clients in a month.

What is the minimum contract?

Three months. The first month sets everything up, the second brings the first enquiries, the third shows whether the funnel scales. A shorter period does not give an honest answer about whether Instagram works for your business. After three months we continue month to month or on a 6–12-month plan with KPIs.

Which industries do you work with on Instagram?

Since 2018 we have run Instagram for 200+ businesses in 80+ niches: restaurants and bars, clinics and dentists, beauty and PMU studios, eyewear and retail, car dealers, e-commerce brands, B2B manufacturers, schools and personal brands. Each niche has its own content pillars and ad limits — a clinic cannot run before/after ads, a bar can.
