Keep your people engaged

  • Drive traffic to your app or site by promoting it to people who already love your brand.

  • Don’t just share content that’s focused on selling something—focus on your customers, too. Post status updates your fans need, or share a photo of a new customer wearing your product to make them feel special.

  • Show people who visit your social page that you’re a well-respected company by highlighting a glowing review, or sharing an update that will benefit your customers.

  • Get more eyes on your social page by sharing your point of view on a trending topic. Including a popular hashtag in your posts can even get them 12.6% more engagement than ones that don’t.

  • Find a topic related to your business that you can educate your audience about, and use your social posts to show people that you’re an expert.
