7 Powerful Social Media Tips You Can Use For Your Business

Do you want to do your business better? How about more efficiently? Use social media!?

Social media is a powerful tool for your business, especially if you're in the service industry.

Studies show that customers who receive good customer service via social channels like Twitter and Facebook are more likely to return as repeat clients than those receiving poor or no customer service at all!?

So how can you use social media to receive more amazing reviews, increase popularity or brand awareness for your products or services? Here are some tips that will help your business connect with and resonate with more customers or clients while humanizing your brand, leading to more sales, reviews and a larger audience.?

Here are 7 tips that will help your business through social media:??

1. Create opportunities for contact with followers on YouTube and Instagram by posting behind-the-scenes footage of what it means to work here (share photos/videos from events). People connect with people better than anything else. A behind the scenes look will inspire others and may keep them interested in seeing your progression.?

2. Share motivational and encouraging messages about being open minded, having patience while things get done right...etc. Everyone could use a little encouragement and motivation in their life.

3. Post photos and videos with an explanation or caption so your page doesn't solely consist of text posts. Pictures and videos can be helpful in engaging current followers as well as potential new ones.?

4. Provide a call to action. If you want to get more followers on another account, ask users to follow another account before viewing yours (e.g., "click this link to follow me on Instagram so..."). You may also want to provide instructions at the end such as what they should do upon completion (i.e., "please like our FB page by clicking below."). This is called a call to action.?

5. Provide links and images from other sources that your audience may also enjoy. This helps prevent your page from becoming too "spammy" with self promotions and attracts new people to your prolife.

• Ex. If you sell yoga mats, you can post or share content about massage therapy, crystals, meditation, mental health etc.. Tammy sees your post about crystals and discovers you sell yoga matts and buys one from you or shares your post with someone who does.??

6. Like and comment meaningful and valuable comments on other profiles and posts. This will help start a conversation, build a relationship and get more engagement on your posts. It’s a win-win situation for everyone involved.?

7. Know how to use your business to your advantage. The best way to use social media for your business is dependent on what kind of business you have.?

• If you're selling services online like web design, blogging/writing content, photography etc., then using Facebook groups may be better suited for driving traffic back to your website where they can purchase something from your store.
• If you are in the retail or service industry, then it's a good idea to post and engage with people who comment on your posts by asking questions about their needs or concerns. These interactions can help build trust between you and potential customers which will lead to more sales.?What type of company do you have?
