3 Tips to Increase Social Media Engagements

Does your business have a presence on Facebook and Twitter?  Do you have a big following and lots of activities on your accounts, or do you hear crickets?

Here are three quick tips on how to increase your social media engagements and build your fanbase.

  1. Offer a gift card to a randomly selected fan or follower every month.  This helps you grow your fan base and keeps them coming back to your page.
  2. Communicate and interact.  As you grow your list of fans and followers – talk to them.  Respond to their tweets and Facebook comments.  Don’t just talk about your products and services.  Ask interesting questions.  Answer their questions.  Communication is a two-way street.
  3. Have a strong promotion and make it easy to share.  Tie it to all your marketing channels: social media, website, print collateral, text messaging service, etc.  For instance, if you’re a pizza restaurant and you have a weekly promotion of “buy one large pizza get a dozen wings for free”, do broadcast it across the board on Twitter and Facebook, and via SMS to your list of subscribers.
