'Ready stock in our I-10 Markaz showroom: three-seater and two-seater sofa set, wooden frame, fabric in four colours. Delivery in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Price on the photo — WhatsApp for a video.'
Facebook marketing
We run Facebook for I-10 Markaz's furniture showrooms, shoe shops and clothing stores: stock posted with real photos and prices, Marketplace listings that reach Rawalpindi as easily as Islamabad, directions from IJP Road, and Urdu captions written for families furnishing a home or shopping for Eid on a budget.
On the Starter package, PKR 15,000 per month. Ad spend, if you run ads, is separate.
Why it fits
I-10 Markaz trades on keen prices, and its customers come from both cities along IJP Road and Srinagar Highway. They are Facebook users first: they browse Marketplace for a sofa set, check a shoe shop's page for sizes, and ask in groups where to get a wardrobe made. Many I-10 shops post rarely, or only share supplier images. Posting real stock regularly, with prices and a clear route to the Markaz, captures shoppers who would otherwise head to Raja Bazaar or Saddar.
The work
Examples
Illustrative starting points, not results. The audit decides the real first move.

A shoe post
'Eid collection: children's shoes in all sizes, ladies' khussa and sandals. I-10 Markaz, near [landmark]. Come early; popular sizes go first.'
By making the trip look easy and worthwhile. I-10 sits on IJP Road, close to much of Rawalpindi, so posts should mention the route, delivery options and prices that justify the drive. Marketplace listings covering both cities and a pinned directions post bring buyers who would otherwise shop nearer home.
Yes. Families buying furniture in the twin cities browse Marketplace heavily, comparing styles and prices before visiting. An I-10 showroom listing real pieces with dimensions, prices and delivery terms gets enquiries from buyers who already know what they want, which shortens the sale once they reach the shop.
Pitfalls
The area
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.

Price
The Starter package covers posting, Marketplace listings and page set-up on Facebook; answering Messenger and comments every day is part of Growth, which is where most Facebook-heavy businesses end up.
Starter
PKR 15,000per month
A creator or small shop that has stopped posting and needs someone to keep it moving.
These are the questions we get on WhatsApp every week, answered the way we would answer them there.
WhatsApp usYes. We create listings from your photos and details, renew them when they fade, and remove sold items. Marketplace listings sit under a personal profile, so we agree with you whose account they run from.
Four or five times a week suits most I-10 shops, with more before Eid and wedding season. Each post should show real stock with a price; a steady stream of useful posts beats occasional big announcements.
