For coffee lovers, Instagram is naturally the number one social media platform to get your daily fix of inspiration. For coffee businesses especially, this is a great platform to interact with your customers and make it easy for new customers to find you, as you never know what image is really going to take off. Just this week with Jennifer Aniston finally joining the Instagram club we saw the extreme end of how quickly these things can move. She posted a single picture which in the first day picked up over 10 million likes and giving her over 9 million followers!
