ORBIT MARKETING

SIMON GOULD

DIGITAL STRATEGIST

We all know how important social media is for marketing and business growth, and what you’re missing out on if you’re not using it effectively. Using social media to reach new markets, and build awareness of your brand is no longer optional, it’s an essential component of any robust marketing plan.

We also know how totally overwhelming it can be to try and manage it yourself. Here are some tips to help…

  1. You don’t need to be on every social platform. Pick the one your clients are most likely to use and focus your efforts there. Social platforms like Facebook, Instagram and TikTok are great for building brand awareness and trust. Couple that with Google ads designed to capture people who are ready to buy now and you’ve got a watertight way of generating sales now, and building for future success.
  2. You don’t have to post daily. Two good posts per week are better than 5 rushed ones. Create posts that help your ideal customer solve the problems they have right now, don’t just focus on driving sales.
  3. Us paid ads. A small budget like $5-$10 a day will get you in front of thousands of potential customers per week. It would take months to reach that many people with posts only.
  4. Get Help. If you’re struggling, reach out to an agency for assistance.
