About KRT Basmati Rice
KRT Basmati Rice is a rice brand sold across India. It wanted recipe and kitchen content that keeps the brand in daily cooking, plus festive and retail promotions.
Why it matters: Rice is a daily choice, so recipe content keeps KRT in the kitchen conversation every day.
The challenge
KRT Basmati Rice had a following, but posting was irregular and the page was not bringing enough enquiries. Like most rice brands across India, they needed a page that looks active every week and turns attention into DMs, calls and visits.
How we delivered social media marketing for KRT Basmati Rice
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 KRT Basmati Rice, the work covered recipe and kitchen content for a basmati rice brand, festive cooking campaigns and retailer and e-commerce promotions.
