Social media has fast become a key marketing platform so we thought we would give you five reasons why using it is so important for your business.
Did you know there are over 1 billion people using Facebook, 500 million using Twitter, 225 million using LinkedIn and over 130 million people using Instagram? Other networks are also booming so get online and build your business.
More and more businesses are signing up and using social media sites. That suggests using social media is working, so if you aren’t using it, you should be!
When you conduct a search, search engines take into account your website activity and the activity on your social media accounts. The more activity on your social media accounts, the more search engines will see your website as important and your business website will rank higher.
Research has found that consumers who have been exposed to certain brands on social media are more inclined to make a purchase. Build a following and optimise your brand on social media. Use visual social media sites such as Pinterest and Instagram to showcase your products.
More and more people are making contact with companies through their social media sites. Interact with your potential customers and listen to their views and feedback. This will help you to understand what you are doing well, what needs to be improved and what customers want and expect.
