By trade · Electronics shops
An electronics shop in Rawalpindi sells the same Dawlance fridge as the four shops beside it, within PKR 2,000. Nobody wins on price. What you post has to answer the questions that actually decide it: what is the monthly qist, who installs the AC, and what happens the day it stops cooling in June.
These are the things we hear most from electronics shops in the twin cities. If two or three of them sound like your week, everything below is aimed straight at them.
4 themes you can return to forever, so you are never staring at the camera wondering what to say. We build your month out of these.
01
Qist is the deciding factor for most buyers and almost nobody posts the numbers. Put the monthly figure, the down payment and the documents needed on one clear card per model.
02
Sell service before the rush. AC servicing in March, gas top-ups before the first hot week, heater and gas-safety checks in November — when the technician is still available and the customer is not desperate.
03
This is the only real difference between you and the shop next door, so film it. Copper piping, the bracket going on the wall, the technician's number the customer will actually call.
04
In a summer of long outages the questions turn to UPS, batteries, inverters and solar. Explain what size runs what, in fans and lights, not in watts nobody understands.
Ranked for this trade specifically, with how often we would post on each.
| Platform | Priority | How often | Why it works for this trade |
|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | 1 price or offer post daily plus same-day comment replies | Appliance buyers in Rawalpindi shortlist from Facebook price posts and Marketplace before they walk down Bank Road. | |
| TikTok | #2 | 3 videos per week, daily in AC season | Weekly price-list and installation videos from electronics shops get watched by people planning a purchase three weeks out. |
| YouTube | #3 | 2 videos per month plus 4 Shorts | Comparison videos between two fridge models keep earning enquiries long after the season ends, which no Facebook post does. |
| WhatsApp Channels | #4 | 2 broadcasts per week | Past buyers get the Eid offer and the servicing reminder directly, which is how you sell a second appliance to the same house. |
Figures as of August 2026. Source: Islamabad Digital Marketing, from managing accounts in these categories.
A 1.5-ton inverter AC sells around PKR 150,000 to 250,000 and a fridge 90,000 to 200,000, but margin per unit is often only PKR 5,000 to 12,000. The money is in installation, servicing and the same household coming back for the washing machine.
Our recommendation for this trade
Growth — PKR 35,000 per month
Two selling seasons, a catalogue that changes with the dollar, and a hundred qist questions a day. Growth covers twelve short videos a month, price graphics kept current, and someone answering comments before the customer walks to the next shop.
Accounts worth studying before you post anything. We are not affiliated with any of them — they are here because the approach is worth copying.

Campaigns are timed to Ramadan and the first hot week, not spread evenly. A shop can copy the timing even without the ad budget.
Installment plans are the headline, not a footnote. Lead with the monthly figure because that is the number the buyer is doing sums with.
Model, price and warranty period on a single graphic. Simple, readable, and it works as well for a two-shop retailer.
We work across all of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, but these are the areas where this trade clusters — useful if you are working out where your customers come from.
Islamabad
I-10 is where a lot of the twin cities' everyday trade happens. The Markaz is packed with keenly priced clothes, shoes, phone shops and furniture, and the sub-sectors hold cheap rentals for students and workers. Its edge on IJP Road makes it as much a Rawalpindi market as an Islamabad one.
Islamabad's central business district: a long strip of office towers along Jinnah Avenue, sitting between the F and G sectors. Banks, telecom head offices, law chambers, travel agents and consultancies are stacked floor on floor, with ground-floor cafés feeding the lunch rush. Almost nobody lives here, and by nine at night it is empty.
Rawalpindi
Saddar is the Cantt side of Pindi's old shopping heart. Bank Road and Kashmir Road are lined with tailors, shoe shops, opticians and watch repairers who have held the same shutter for forty years. Trade runs on walk-ins from the railway station and the Cantt offices, and almost none of it is online.
Raja Bazaar is the old city's wholesale engine — narrow lanes off Fowara Chowk where cloth, gold and crockery move by the carton, not the piece. Moti Bazaar dresses a large share of the twin cities' brides. Business peaks in the ten days before Eid and goes flat through the monsoon.
Commercial Market is Satellite Town's high street: two long rows of clothing outlets, shoe shops, cosmetics counters and food carts that fill up after Maghrib. It sells to families rather than wholesalers, so prices are fixed and the evening crowd decides everything. Parking is the standing complaint.
Murree Road is the spine that carries Rawalpindi from Marrir Chowk up to Faizabad, with the Metro Bus running above it the whole way. Car showrooms, marriage halls, furniture galleries and coaching centres take the frontage; everything behind them is housing. Being seen from the bus lane is the whole game.
These are the phrases people in this trade actually type. If your page does not answer them, someone else's does.
Packages run from PKR 15,000 to PKR 70,000 a month, and most electronics shops start on Growth at PKR 35,000. Two selling seasons, a catalogue that changes with the dollar, and a hundred qist questions a day. Growth covers twelve short videos a month, price graphics kept current, and someone answering comments before the customer walks to the next shop. A one-time audit of your existing page is PKR 5,000, credited if you go monthly.
Facebook. Appliance buyers in Rawalpindi shortlist from Facebook price posts and Marketplace before they walk down Bank Road. We would run it at 1 price or offer post daily plus same-day comment replies and add nothing else until that is steady.
installments, spelled out, before the season starts, installation and after-sales — those three alone fill a month. Qist is the deciding factor for most buyers and almost nobody posts the numbers. Put the monthly figure, the down payment and the documents needed on one clear card per model.
Yes, we treat the twin cities as one service area. We see a lot of electronics shops around Saddar, Raja Bazaar, Commercial Market, Murree Road. Most of the work runs over WhatsApp and Drive, and we come to you for the first meeting or a shoot.
You will see the output in week one and the numbers in month one. For a local trade like this, enquiries usually start moving in the second or third month, once there is enough posted for someone to trust that you are still open and still good.
