A Reel hook
Text on screen over a close-up of tilla thread: 'One pair of Multani khussa, start to finish.' Then a sped-up cut of stitching, sole fixing and the final pair on feet, ending on the size chart.
Instagram marketing
For Multan craft and gift brands we run Instagram around the making: Reels of a khussa being stitched or a Kashi tile being painted, carousels of finished pieces in daylight, gift-box posts before Eid and wedding season, and fast replies to the 'price?' DMs. You film in the workshop on a phone; we edit, caption, schedule and report.
On the Starter package, PKR 15,000 per month. Ad spend, if you run ads, is separate.
Why it fits
Multani khussa, blue pottery and sohan halwa already carry the city's name, which is half the work done. Buyers in Lahore, Islamabad and abroad want proof that a piece really comes from Multan hands, and Instagram is where they check. A grid of flat product photos on a tiled floor looks like any reseller; thirty seconds of an artisan near Hussain Agahi pulling thread through leather looks like the source. Gifting peaks before Eid, at weddings and when relatives fly back, so the calendar matters as much as the content.
The work
Examples
Illustrative starting points, not results. The audit decides the real first move.

Sample captions direction
Hand-painted blue pottery from Multan. Each plate is slightly different because a person painted it. Sizes and gift packing in the highlight; DM for delivery to Lahore, Karachi or Islamabad. (Illustrative.)
Show the hands, not just the shoe. Multan khussa buyers want to see stitching, sole work and the pair being worn, then a clear size chart and delivery cities. Two or three making-of Reels a week, quick DM replies and an Eid-focused calendar usually do more than daily flat product photos.
Yes, for gifting more than for walk-ins. Families in other cities and overseas Pakistanis order Multan sohan halwa as a gift, and Instagram is where they choose the box. Packaging close-ups, fresh-batch Reels and a clear courier note work better than generic sweet photos.
Pitfalls
The city
Multan clients are served remotely from Islamabad. It starts with a video call, then everything runs through one WhatsApp group and a shared Drive folder. You, a staff member or a local videographer film the orchard, the stitching or the counter on a phone; we cut it, write the captions, post, run the ads and send the report. Nobody from us drives down, and the work does not need anyone to.
