Questions

How often should a small business post?

A steady rhythm you can keep up with, such as three or four posts a week, is better than a burst followed by silence.

Should I put prices in the caption?

If the price is part of the appeal, yes. It cuts the number of repeat questions in DMs.

Is it fine to use these captions for a home-based business?

Yes. The behind the scenes and thank-you captions work especially well for home bakers, tailors and craft sellers.
