Have you recently started a social media site for your business? Do you find it hard to attract people to your site? Here are 5 ways that could help grow your business!
1.Be positive and willing to learn
Many people that are looking into social media aren’t sure on what to do. The plus side is that we have so many resources now online. There are multiple You-Tube videos that can help you get started and even more step-by-step articles that you can look at online. The best thing to remember that if you do not have a big budget for social media is to just get started.
2. Research your audience
There are many businesses out there. Every type of business will have a different approach to how they begin advertising online. What might work for one company does not mean it will also work for yours. Make sure that whatever you are going to do, research where your audience is and what they are currently doing.
3. Create a plan
Deciding what to do online for your business can be hard, but if you sit down and create a plan, then you will have a better chance of success. Decide how many times your business will post, what the overall goal is, and who are you targeting.
4. Be patient
Any business that you see online and that is successful was not built over night. If you are creating content and no one is engaging with it, just be patient. Your efforts will be seen.
5. Don’t throw away your old marketing techniques yet.
When trying to transition into social media, you must first consider your current audience. If your current audience is used to your business sending direct mail, emails, flyers, and seeing rack cards around town, then keep those going! The best way in our opinion to start social media for a business with no experience is to start promoting their social media sites and their websites on those products first. This would be our first advice to grow your business.
Here are just a few examples of how you can start advocating your social media sites:
- Place your usernames for your social media sites on post cards and place them in any packaging that your business sends out.
- Always remember to place the social media icons on anything that you design.
- Do you have rack cards placed in multiple locations? Use them to promote your social media sites too!
