Although not a company per se, Grand Central Station has captivated over 70 thousand followers with its images mainly of the station.  Grand Central Station created buzz by encouraging Instagram users to share their experiences at the station through hashtag #GrandCentral. 

4.  ASOS

British Retail store, ASOS took a twist from the conventional retail Instagram account.  ASOS created connectivity with individual users through personal brand ambassadors.  These individuals each have their own Instagram following with the freedom to style themselves and their account however they want, but their accounts (and in turn followings) tie back to the main ASOS brand.

5. Airbnb

Airbnb has also taken advantage of the opportunity to post pictures from all over the world.  The company has amassed over 1 million followers through their high-quality images of Airbnb travelers’ locations and experiences. 

The best Instagram marketing strategies are the unique ones.  Take notes from these businesses to perfect your business’s marketing campaign.
