An Instagram alternative built for service businesses

Instagram is great for posts. When a customer needs your work photos, a quote, or a page that stays put, FWDLink gives you Your Page, jobsite albums, and CRM on one shareable link.

Your Page that stays

A public page for your service — albums, contact, and links — not a feed that scrolls away.

Jobsite photos people can open

Share private albums or feature finished work on your page so customers see the job, not a hunt through DMs.

CRM when the job is real

Capture leads from your page, then follow up with estimates and invoices when you are ready.

Instagram for trades vs FWDLink

Posts and photos, on both. A lasting service page, jobsite albums you own, and CRM follow-up are here.

Keep Instagram — add a destination that lasts

Put your FWDLink in your bio, stories, texts, and QR codes. Customers open Your Page in the browser, browse the work you choose to share, and reach you without needing an account.

Jobsite photos next to the quote

Save progress and before-and-after shots in albums. Share a gallery link, feature albums on Your Page, or attach photos when you send an estimate. Online payment fees depend on your plan — see Plans.

From first tap to follow-up

Messages and quote requests land in Leads. When the job is ready, continue in Business CRM with estimates and invoices — same product, same link you already share.

Frequently asked questions

  • Is FWDLink meant to replace Instagram?

    No. Keep posting where your customers already look. FWDLink is the lasting page and jobsite photo home you put in your bio — plus CRM when a lead becomes a job. FWDLink is a separate product and is not affiliated with Instagram.

  • Can I use it in my Instagram bio?

    Yes — drop your FWDLink URL in your bio, stories, or highlights so visitors open Your Page and albums first.

  • Where do customer messages go?

    Contact forms and quote requests land in Leads. You can continue into estimates and invoices from Business CRM when you are ready.

  • Do I need a credit card to start?

    No — claim your link and publish on Starter without a card. See Plans if you want more storage or paid CRM tools later.
