Low engagement rate

Posts are not reaching or engaging the audience effectively, with likes often below 10 on a follower base of over 3,000.

The bio ends with "Explore my collection," which lacks specificity and doesn't create urgency.

#3

Overuse of hashtags in some posts

This dilutes focus and may confuse Instagram's algorithm, reducing post visibility.

#4

Business category is set to 'None'

Missing an opportunity to improve discoverability through proper categorization.
