A guide to Ottawa’s most accessible Instagram influencers

It’s no secret that Ottawa consumers love Instagram. It’s the perfect social media platform to share photos and videos with family and friends. And it also happens to be a great marketing platform for the Ottawa business community.

In today’s post, we introduce three local Ottawa Instagram influencers who provide targeted marketing and advertising services to the Ottawa business community. Each influencer specializes in specific niches that cater to consumers in the national capital region. Some are free, others offer Instagram posts at very affordable rates.

Why advertise on Instagram?

It wasn’t that long ago when marketing and advertising were the exclusive domain of newspapers and TV networks. Not only were marketing channels sparse, they were also very expensive. And don’t get us started on production costs.

Thankfully, those days are long behind us. Modern technology and software has democratized content creation while bringing cost within reach of most small businesses. Social networks such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter have provided business users with rich audience targeting, albeit at significant costs.

This is why local influencers provide such value. They offer access to targeted audiences in specific niches at a fraction of the price of traditional channels.

Ottawa has many Instagram influencers to choose from, at a variety of price points. Today we present three Ottawa influencers who offer access to niche audiences at very low prices. In fact, two of these influencers will share your posts for free.
