The unspoken mantra of selling on Instagram is to augment product offerings using the platforms tools like using photo filters, instagram reels, boomerang etc when presenting the products. Sellers who want to succeed face enourmous pressure to succumb to this augmented reality. The implications can be devastating for authentic entrepreneurs that are honest and transparent.
