In 2026, Instagram has become a complete sales platform with DMs, WhatsApp integration, lead forms, and paid ads. If used correctly, it can bring daily enquiries for local businesses, service providers, restaurants, salons, and startups.
In this blog, we’ll explain step-by-step how small businesses can get leads from Instagram without a website, using proven strategies that actually work.
