Social Media: Learning the Ropes

Social Media can be a great tool for marketing your business. It’s important to educate yourself and learning the ropes on how the different platforms work and how they will best suite you and your business. Making sure to broadcast your message to the right audience is crucial and may entail some paid advertising across the various platforms.

The best thing to do is to listen to your customers. Like advertising in any other medium (phone directory, radio, TV, newspaper, etc.), you need to know what your audience is looking for. Using your social media platforms as another method of customer service will allow more customers to voice their opinions of your business or services which can provide you with valuable information.

Be consistent across all your platforms. You want to have a nice mix of relevant material along with special promotions. Look at what other businesses are doing and use that information to find what works best for you and your business. Remember to be consistent across all your platforms. Make sure they are all receiving the attention needed so your message reaches your whole audience.

Engage with your audience. Your potential customers want to feel special and want to know you’re listening. Don’t shy away from speaking with them over your platforms. You can answer questions, address concerns and really learn what it is you can do from a customer standpoint to make your business stand out among your competition.
