About Gharana
Gharana, the Guwahati boutique, also needed Instagram content: collection launch reels, styling videos and festive campaigns that turn DMs into sales.
Why it matters: Collections sell out faster when buyers see them styled on Instagram before they visit.
The challenge
For a boutique brand in Guwahati, Instagram is often the first place a customer checks before buying. Gharana needed content that builds trust quickly, a steady posting rhythm and clear calls to action that move people from scrolling to enquiring.
How we delivered social media marketing for Gharana
We started with a content strategy built on three or four content pillars: product or service showcases, behind the scenes, customer proof and offers. Every month we planned a content calendar around sales goals, festivals and local events, so the page never went quiet.
Reels were scripted with a strong hook in the first two seconds, then shot and edited for watch time and shares. Static posts and carousels kept the visual identity consistent, while captions, hashtags and highlights were written for search inside Instagram.
Community management ran daily: replying to comments and DMs, sharing user-tagged posts and guiding every enquiry to WhatsApp or a call. Each month we reviewed reach, engagement rate, saves and enquiries, and doubled down on the formats that worked.
For Gharana, the work covered collection launch reels and styling content, wedding and festive campaigns and customer stories and try-on videos.
