'Eid silai ki booking band hone wali hai — last date for stitched orders is [date]. Ladies and gents suits, plain and fancy. Send your design picture on WhatsApp to confirm.'
Facebook marketing
We run Facebook for Karachi Company's cloth houses, tailoring shops and shoe stores: new lawn and wedding fabric posted the week it lands, stitching cut-off dates before every Eid, Marketplace listings for shoes and bags, and Urdu-first captions for a G-9 crowd that shops on price and trust.
On the Starter package, PKR 15,000 per month. Ad spend, if you run ads, is separate.
Why it fits
Karachi Company is where ordinary Islamabad buys its Eid and wedding clothes, and its customers — government families, students, people from the surrounding G and I sectors — mostly live on Facebook. Before a trip to G-9 they want to know whether the shop has the fabric, the colour, the shoe size, and whether the tailor can still take an order before Eid. Shops that answer online save customers a wasted trip and win the visit. The seasons are sharp here: summer lawn, the pre-Eid rush, winter wedding fabric.
The work
Examples
Illustrative starting points, not results. The audit decides the real first move.

A fabric post
'New winter wedding fabrics at our Karachi Company shop: chiffon, velvet and embroidered net in twelve colours. Photos in the album; ask for a colour and we will send a video.'
Show the stock before customers travel. G-9 shoppers compare fabric, sizes and tailoring slots on Facebook before deciding which shops to visit. Real photos with prices, current Eid cut-off dates and quick replies in Urdu bring people to your block rather than the next one along.
Several weeks ahead, while customers are still choosing where to get stitching done. By the last fortnight most Karachi Company tailors are full. A post announcing the booking window early, then a cut-off date and daily updates, fills slots in order and avoids turning people away at the counter in the final days.
Pitfalls
The area
G-9 Markaz is Karachi Company, the market ordinary Islamabad actually shops in. Wedding-season cloth, shoes, luggage, mobile repair, cheap electronics and a hundred tailors, spread over blocks that stay busy until late. The residential side is older middle-class housing and government flats, so footfall never depends on visitors.

These are the questions we get on WhatsApp every week, answered the way we would answer them there.
WhatsApp usFor most Karachi Company shops, bring people in. Fabric, fit and tailoring need a visit, and Facebook's job is to make sure they come to you. Shoes, bags and ready-made items can sell online with delivery, which we add once the page is working.
We reply to routine questions — timings, cut-off dates, directions, availability — and pass orders to your staff. For the last week before Eid we agree a script, so customers get quick, honest answers even when the shop is too busy to type.
