Social Media: Facebook & Twitter

Having a Facebook page for your business was once (not so long ago) a bit of a gimmick! Facebook was social media after all, not business media. However, Facebook has now come into it’s own as a real business tool as companies large and small recognise that business is all about relationship marketing.

A Facebook page is a great way to build a relationship and earn trust with your customers.  This is not “brute force” marketing or the hard sell. It’s connecting with and keeping customers based upon respect and an emotional connection.

Does that sound a bit precious? For many users Facebook is an emotional connection to the world and by disregarding that connection you are missing out on an awful lot of new customers.

Twitter is also a great way to inform and engage with potential customers. It’s a fast way to grow your business if done correctly and many businesses use Twitter as their main marketing tool.

We can help you set up your Facebook page the right way for business and ensure that it looks and works great with some bespoke Timeline and Profile images. We can even set up a system which integrates your Facebook and Twitter content to your website.

We can create matching website, Facebook and Twitter profiles so that your company looks great no matter what platform you use.

If you have been thinking about ways to bring in more customers to your business, Facebook and Twitter are great ways to help you get found on the internet, engage better, build relationships, and more importantly, increase sales.

Twitter has become one of the strongest social media
sites out there today along with Facebook, Pinterest,
and others. Using Twitter one can tweet and follow other
users which basically is like communicating and friending them.

It is always good to have a social media presence if you own
sites and want to further interact and get personal with the users.
I would recommend having a seperate Twitter account for each site
you own.

Much like building an email list, a Twitter account is useless
without having followers. You can build followers by having social media
badges or buttons on your site in order for them to join which would be
the most common way of gaining followers. Or actively scouting twitter
for people who have interests that pertains to your niche.

Going back to the reference about email marketing, you should
treat Twitter in such the same way. Remember that Twitter is
a social media service and such you should treat it that way FIRST.

Start out by building a relationship with them by offering tips
pertaining to your niche. Say if I am in a SEO niche, one tweet
could be “Are you making a presence in Web 2.0? If not try making
sites at WordPress, Hubpages, etc.” and keep building a friendship
with them.

You want to build a relationship with them because more often
than not I would not buy something from someone who just joined
Twitter and already tweeted their salespage to buy a $1000 course.

Get in a routine of sending out Monday, Wednesday, Friday tips or
freebies for two weeks. Then try throwing out an offer and see if
you get any bites. Then keep repeating some process like that so
they are not worn out with your offers or too fresh.

Treat them like a friend with the ultimate goal of selling things to them.
If you make out a decent plan you should have good success in marketing
to Twitter users.
