The Best 5 Ways to Use Social Media Marketing in Dallas
Social media has been one of the biggest ‘buzz words’ over the last decade. Facebook and Twitter are ubiquitous all over the world, and companies are using social media every day to connect with existing customers and create new ones.
You probably already have a Facebook and Twitter account for your company. If you don’t, then it’s easy to set one up. However, once you’ve established a basic social media presence online, you still need to do some work to attract people to your business.
Here are the best 5 ways to use social media marketing for your Dallas-based company.
5) Answer questions on Twitter
Millions of people are using Twitter right now, and many of those people are your potential customers. Instead of using Twitter to blindly send out links to your products, why not try talking to people in your niche?
There are a number of different programs that can help monitor keywords from the moment they’re first mentioned on Twitter. Set up a tool like Monitter to track a keyword related to your product or company. Respond to these tweets and answer questions. If you’re able to offer thoughtful, useful advice to these people, your company’s Twitter feed will start to look like an authority source of information in your industry.
4) Start discussions on Facebook
You’ve got people to ‘like’ your company’s Facebook page. Now what? They’re going to forget about your company if you never update your page. Try posting a few questions on your page every week. People who like your page will be able to answer these questions, keeping your company’s name fresh in their minds.
And, even better, your company’s questions will start to appear in other people’s news feeds as well. People who have never heard of your company will notice that a friend has commented on your status. This creates a snowball effect that gathers marketing momentum for your company.
The important thing to remember about this is not to overdo it: nobody likes to see their Facebook feed clogged with ten stories per day about your company. Aim for 1 or 2 posts per day and you should be able to expand your company’s following.
3) Post interesting content to Reddit, StumbleUpon, and Digg
Social bookmarking websites like Reddit, StumbleUpon, and Digg are a great way to generate traffic for your site. If your site is lucky enough to hit the front page of any social news aggregator, you can expect to see an immediate spike in traffic. If you can convert even a small percentage of those visitors into customers, then you’re using social media right.
2) Use Pinterest
Pinterest is the new kid on the social media block, but it already has millions of users. Starting an active Pinterest page for your company is a fun and easy way to promote it. Take a picture of your product and post it to Pinterest, then get your friends or customers to repin it.
1) Start social media discussions in Dallas (or wherever your company is based)
If your company is local to the Dallas area, then you can’t just target anybody on the internet. You need website visitors that actually live in Dallas. To do this, start a targeted local social media campaign. You can sponsor a contest at a local radio station, for example, or give away free stuff to your Twitter followers in the Dallas area.
