Unknown to many of us, the various social media sites are competing against each other. You may not realize it, but they are basically waging war against each other just to win you over. Their mission is to get every citizen of the world a member of their social media site.
But if you are as brilliant as the minds behind these successful social media sites you can actually turn the table around and use them to your own business advantage. You may not get a share of the huge amount they are earning, but you can promote your business, products and services by getting free memberships from all of them. Use the following social media platforms to increase your sales:
Facebook
It is the most famous of all social media sites today. In fact, Facebook is ranked second by Alexa, next only to Google in terms of Web site visitors. By joining this social media site, your business is instantly exposed to over 300 million Facebook users in every street of the world. To get into the veins of Facebook marketing, you are required, of course, to join the site, which is free. As you start to gather your friends, you can create a page exclusively dedicated to your business where you can communicate and promote your products and services to your customers who are themselves members of your group.
Facebook also offers an advertising package for a minimal fee. In this advertising package, you are given the power to decide who will see your ads, such as their location, age, educational levels, marital status, and many other choices.
Twitter
In the past year, Twitter has significantly increased its popularity along with its memberships. Today, Twitter brags of its 100 million members scattered around the globe. By joining Twitter, you can avail of its unique platform of sending communication to your friends, called “tweets”. By sending out interesting, informative and relevant posts, you can also promote your business, products and services. What is amazing about Twitter is the fact that you can post microblogs for all the world to read. This microblogging platform is conducive for busy people like you. You can send out bite sized information about a new product or service you are promoting. In this way, you are given a chance to market your business for free!
Multimedia
The rise of technology has given businesses a new platform to promote their products and services online in a whole new level. The old advertising tools (print and television) are overtaken by the coming of online marketing videos, photos and audios. These new social media tools are seen to be effective in bringing awareness to the people what a business is all about. On the internet, YouTube is the authority when it comes to online video advertising as anybody can create a profile and upload videos for free. Once a video is uploaded, the world stands by to watch it. On the other hand, Flickr is a good way to promote your products by posting photos at your profile. This is an excellent venue for your customers to evaluate your products as the photos (of your products) are posted and seen on Flickr.
There are other social media tools you can use to skyrocket your business. For more information about these tools, please visit http://www.annettapowellonline.com.
