14. Organize Contests and Giveaways

Use Rafflecopter to grow your social network following and increase engagement. You’ll award the winner a prize. However, your business will pay for the expense of the prize.

Contests and giveaways are a strategic way to increase social media engagement. You can ask people for certain actions, such as visiting your landing page or subscribing (that you can then retarget).

Conclusion

Engaging on social media will also help you increase your sales. Your customers will feel comfortable purchasing from your store by being active on social networks and responding to their comments.

Even if negative comments are made to your page, you can still improve your sales by responding positively and resolving the issue. Recommending products can help you increase sales naturally. Getting social can be the best decision you make for your business.

Thank you, Lily,
I do appreciate your post. I am so new to blogging and social media. Social media is especially new. I have been on Facebook for a while, and I have never used it for business purposes.
I love to meet people face to face but for some reason being social on different platforms is completely different. I think I am comparing myself with their creativity.
I am going to have to keep on posting and realize it will come easier and easier.
Thanks for all your useful information.

You are very welcome Lolita.
It was a whole new world to me and has taken a while to get the hang of it. I do use a scheduler to make sure that I am posting an article every day on several social media platforms.

With everything you need to learn here it can get lost and forgotten. You can try it for free for 60 days and then it's only $10 per month which I think is very reasonable for all the time it saves.

This tutorial might help, Lily

Thanks for another episode, I always enjoy your training.
I think it is better to start with one social media at a time and increase later? which of the social medias should be the most appropriate to start with?

Hi

That's dependent knowing your audience really well and their hangouts. Then you can focus your efforts into providing adequate succinct content to suit their needs.

And therefore niche research is super important as well as perhaps looking at your Google Analytic stats and see where your customers are coming from, what are they doing when landing on your pages.

You 'd find a template in your Websites tab top menu > Site Content and templates.

Would be nice to hear how you are getting along. Much obliged and best wishes.

It really does depend on your niche Owosol.

What is your website about?

So probably Facebook and Pinterest will be the first two places to start promoting Owosol. Pinterest is mostly female based and you need to be loading nice picture pins that you create in Canva most days to attract visitors. On Facebook, you would look at any health-related groups to follow.

It really does depend on yourself too. Pinterest is still one of the best for traffic but YouTube is amazing for SEO too. Instagram builds a following and a brand
