Social Media has quickly become an essential part of most businesses’ marketing strategies; it allows businesses to engage with their customer, increase brand awareness and drive traffic to their websites. Increasingly, people are using social channels to search for company news, content and promotions, which in turn drives traffic back to the company website.
5 benefits of using Social Media for business:
With access to social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Google +, LinkedIn and YouTube, being free it is easy for small businesses with limited resources to get involved. Many businesses’ which are eager to get started on social media run the risk of spreading themselves too thinly by creating accounts across all social channels. A social media account that is updated irregularly can have a negative effect on the businesses reputation.
Instead businesses need to be realistic about the time they are prepared to commit to social media and define what it is they want to achieve. This will help to decide which networks to concentrate on. Ultimately it is better to truly master one social channel than trying to establish a business across three or four at once.
A lot of businesses do not have a clear strategy for social media, instead using it purely as a way to promote and sell their products or services. However social media provides a lot more opportunities for brands to communicate with existing and new customers. For example, one opportunity is the use of content to relate to, entertain or educate a customer.
The main points to consider when creating your strategy are:
A well thought out strategy will help you meet your goals and allow you to effectively manage your time to achieve these results.
