Social media is a very effective tool for businesses to use to gain a new customer base. However, a large variety of businesses are not using these platforms effectively. This post is going to be all about using your social media platforms effectively.

One of the best ways to use your social media effectively is through regular posting. Now, we know this can be difficult so in a future post we will share with you some social media post ideas. But, it is more important to be regular than post a lot of content. A lot of people believe it is more important to be posting a lot to keep their media active but this is not the case. Posting regular content daily is more important. We recommend that you post at least every other day with 3 posts per day consistently. This will give your audience a good amount of content and your business a good amount of advertisement.

It is also a good idea to make use of the paid advertisement tools on social media platforms. These can help your adverts to be seen by a much larger audience. They will cost you some fees, but it will be worth it for the amount of reach your media will gain. You will be reaching new customers that you may never have considered before.

Finally, consider the sharing aspect of your social media. What you want to be doing is content that people want to share. The more people that share and interact with your posts, the more people will see your posts. For some social media, this relies on people sharing the posts, for others, it is through comments.

Word of mouth advertisement will be your best friend on social media. Focus on this aspect and pleasing your audience will ensure that you make the most of your social media platforms. Helping your business to grow in ways you never knew possible.

Social Media is a crazy place. With everyone competing for views and engagement on their posts no matter what platform it is. Today, we are going to share with you how you can gain views on your social media posts easily!

To gain views and engagement on your social media posts, it is fairly simple. Your posts need to be eye-catching and ones that people can share their views on.

If you are only sharing generic business posts on your social media accounts you will find you may gain views, but people are not interacting. You want to be sparking a conversation and engaging in conversation with them. Post about topics that will encourage your audience to talk.

It is without any doubt that people on social media like to talk about themselves. Encouraging this will increase your post engagement.

You can also consider using hashtags on social media platforms. These help your post to reach a wider audience of people who are interested in the hashtags you are using.

Did you know that you can now make money as an ‘influencer’ on Instagram? If not here’s how it works:

Brands pay agencies money to seek out influencers (individuals who produce high-quality content and have a large following of real, engaging users). They then offer them a product free of charge, which they would like, promoted on their feed. The agency then organises a deadline with the influencer and awaits their content, submitting it for approval to the brand. If they like it then the post is published and the brand then pays out. It’s that simple. So if you have the ability to take stunning photos and can build followers quickly you can start making some serious money on Instagram. Many people are now involved in influencer marketing and one way in which you can tell is that their hashtags at the end of the post will include #ad.
