SOCIAL MEDIA BLUEPRINT, for your local business! π²
For all local business owners, the challenge is not only finding the time to keep your social media channels up to date but when you do find time, what do you actually post...
Here is simply take on social media for local businesses:
1. Behind the scenes π
As humans we are all nosey at heart, so getting to know and understand a business on a deeper level will only build a stronger connection. Makes people feel like they know before they even come to your business or use your services.
2. Social proof π
This can be reviews, customer shoutouts, etc. Let other peoples word do the marketing for you, it's much more powerful than yours.
3. Pure value π
Hints, tips, myth busting style content. This free style of content helps with overall engagement, and builds trustworthiness in your specialist area. Plus, who doesn't like free information and expertise.
4. Community story π€
Many local businesses are often at the forefront of the community. Whether that is sponsoring a local sports team or doing a charity fundraiser. Gives people more reason to support your local business!
5. Availability notice π
Limited time slots, upcoming events or seasonal offers. This is our promotional content, keep it rare to keep it special. If every post is about a promotion people become blind to it and doesn't create any urgency.
