Social media isn’t free- Invest and reap the rewards!

If you own a business, and you want to be successful on social media, it will cost you money. You WILL need to invest in order to grow your profile and build an engaged community. There is no other way.

It isn’t true that the best content wins. The best PROMOTED content wins. You can have the best product/ service/ content/ promotion in the world, but if no one sees it then it does nothing for your business.

Yes, most people can post on social media. However, to build a successful profile, with a large following of engaged and brand loyal customers you need to know how to reach them and how to market them. When business owners see a page full of activity and 50,000 likes, they want that for themselves. What you need to understand is, that business has put a decent investment into growing that community. It doesn’t just happen. However, the exciting thing is the return you get on your investment (ROI) in social media is huge compared to traditional advertising methods, and it’s much cheaper too!

If you have a Facebook business page, you need to have an advertising budget to reach new fans and build your following. Facebook has an excellent advertising system that enables you to target a demographic that is as specific as you want it to be, so you are only paying to reach people that are current or potential customers. Quantity over quantity is always best.

1 true “like” that can turn into a customer is better than 1000 random likes just for numbers sake.

Once you start sharing your content, you also have the opportunity to boost your posts to reach your fans, new fans (an audience of your choosing) or current fans plus their friends, which is a great option to reach more like minded people. Again, it is an expense but when compared with traditional methods of newspaper advertising or flyers, the cost is much lower and much more successful. The statistics Facebook shares with you mean you can monitor the response you get, and adjust accordingly. You can stop and start promotions when you want and make instant changes- you can’t do that with a newspaper advert!

The content you post on social media is so important. This is where most businesses fall down because they don’t have the knowledge or experience to set objectives and deliver consistent, quality content that will resonate with their audience.
