Tips for Using Social Media in Business

Best And Quick Tips for Using Social Media in Business.

Getting acquainted with the fast-moving realm of online networking can be difficult for a start-up entrepreneur who is already tied up in a lot of other matters before the launch of a business.

So today I am going to share some quick tips to use social media for the success of your business.

Use your expertise

It is not too easy to become popular on the social media, but if you do it smartly, it is not difficult either. Your company’s white paper may not become popular overnight, but all the knowledge that you have gathered while researching ideas for your business, are certainly going to boost your brand’s image and popularity. So, share your expertise through videos and write-ups that can help others in their own business, and your business will automatically get noticed.

Behind the scenes

Ever noticed how the promoters of a movie start releasing teasers of ‘behind the scenes’ activities of stars while shooting for the movie, before the release? So many times, we stop our work mid-way and sit down to watch those sneak peeks, don’t we? Offer a sneak peek of new services, products or features online to get critical feedback from the customers who are seriously interested in your product/service, to help smooth the launch and build excitement and demand even before the product is out in the market. For instance, post photos of the new product/s on Flickr and invite comments from customers.

Demonstrate your skills

Social media is so multimedia centric; it forms an integral part of the world web today. Getting connected to the audience/customer/client visually, makes it easier for you to express your company’s value proposition and leave a mark on viewers. Show just how outstanding your company’s products/services are, by creating videos showing your work and people. Be innovative in exaggerating your skills in a humorous manner, like, you may show a vacuum cleaner that your company makes, sucking up an elephant, a mobile phone or a bacteria cell. This is sure to boost the sales of your company a hundred fold. Just be creative in your approach. The world is hungry for creative ideas.

Use your website’s content

Before I start elaborating this point, this is what I am going to ask – does your company have a website? I have always emphasised on the importance of having a good website for your company and I am going to continue doing so! Generally, small business owners do not pay much attention to getting a website for their business, or maintaining it. Remember that most clients and customers will assume that you have a website for your business, because, today most businesses do. As discussed in my blog Quick Business Development Tips, all big companies have a website, and they did not become big without it. There are actually still quite a few small businesses that do not have a website and without one this is exactly what they will remain. If you don’t have a website for your business, potential customers are going to assume that you are a small company that does not take their business seriously. Once you establish this reputation, it is going to be hard to make sales.
