1. social media provides a great opportunity and advantage for every business.
  1. Social media has become a vast and wide open canvas, and taking full advantage of it requires careful strategic planning. When you are using social media for business, you should make sure to keep your social media profile updated consistently, and maintain a constant presence for your business’s exposure. Remember, “out of sight, out of mind” is very true where social media sites are concerned.
Gaining traffic: Most people who own a business have come to realize how important it is to have a website to expand their reach from the ground to the vast expanse of the Internet. You can easily create a website for your business, and you can allow customers to leave comments about your services. By replying to the comments or concerns customers leave, you can form a bond with your customers, while increasing traffic to your site. Social media enhances this entire experience, and makes it vastly more visible. The idea is not only to use social media for engagement, but also to drive users to your company’s business page, which will further educate users about your work and your services.
Interacting with your customers: You can share photos and videos via social media, keeping customers and potential customers updated as to your business’s current events and latest offerings. This helps in creating a strong bond with your customers, and in making them feel a connection with you and your business.
Increased sales: A good, strong social media strategy can require an investment, but as with any advertising campaign, the ROI (return on investment) is what needs to be considered. A good social media strategy will have a positive effect on sales as it increases the overall exposure of your business, gets people talking about your business or service, and exposes your products and/or services to a far wider audience.
Reputation management: any serious business with an online presence needs a reputation management team to monitor social media activity. This helps the business to track the level of satisfaction noted by customers via their comments, and also helps in solving user issues, thus enhancing the overall user experience. Maintaining the image of your business is very important. Clearly, negative comments and rumors of poor business practices can easily destroy the image of any business. By keeping up with a strong and consistent social media presence, you can help to maintain the good reputation and strong image of your business. Through social media, you can easily reply to potentially destructive comments instantaneously, and help maintain the image of excellent customer service that you want your business to have.
Marketing research Because social media is such an efficient way of connecting with people, you can use social media to conduct marketing research. You can conduct surveys or polls and you can ask people to offer reviews about your products or services. You can also see what your competitors are doing, which can be helpful in planning your own business strategies, such as what kind of service or product you should be launching next.
Inexpensive Social media is very inexpensive when compared to other advertising and marketing tools available to individuals and businesses. The social media tools are free for everyone to use. By simply spending some time working on your social media presence for a few minutes a day, you can see great benefits of increased exposure and sales, and develop good relationships with your customers.
The reach is global: using social media tools provides a very inexpensive means of reaching a global audience in a flash! If your content goes viral, then there is no telling how many people it will reach, and it’s pretty much. Social media is all about getting targeted people to join and interact with your business page or profile. It is importnat to follow common social media practices such as continuous sharing, breaking news, questions, humor, etc. to bring the consistent conversation to your page.
Save on advertising: Every social media site allows you to add an avatar, which is technically your brand mascot, logo or anything which describes your company. When people constantly see updates on their timeline in Facebook or on Twitter, etc., about your business and your products and services, you are enhancing the brand awareness for your company. You can consider lowering your advertising budget when you concentrate on social media marketing plans. Moreover, traditional ads are a one-time investment for a one-time gain, but with a social media presence, your subscribers/followers will give you long-term benefits.
