HOW TO MAKE YOUR CUSTOMERS CREATE CONTENT FOR YOU- PART 2
(If you missed part 1, check this page to read it).
By now you should have known about Customer-generated content aka User-generated Content and why it's effective.
If you don't, check the first part of this post on this page.
Now, let's look into how to actually get your customers to create content for you.
1️⃣ Have wonderful customer service both before and after sales.
Make your customers feel good.
Don't be rude, be polite.
Yes, I know some customers are problematic but no matter how they try to provoke you, always be of nice behavior.
This is the first and fundamental step. If you don't treat your customers well, it'll be difficult if not impossible to ask them to send you videos or reviews.
2️⃣ Have a good follow-up in place.
Follow-up is not only for people who indicate interest in buying from you.
Follow-up is also essential for customers who bought from you.
Keep up on them to ask if they've gotten their goods and if there is anything they want you to fix.
Appreciate them for their patronage and hype them.
Doing all these is like wetting the ground. It'll be easy to ask them for content.
3️⃣ Ask your customers to make videos as they are unboxing your products.
Ask that they make videos of them using your products
Most importantly, ask for reviews and testimonials, especially in video format.
That's it!
There is nothing serious about it. Once you do step 1 and 2 well, asking won't be difficult and you'll get more yes than no.
And even get no, it's not the end of the world. Move on and ask the next person.
Your homework is to make a list of at least 5 customers who bought from you recently and ask for any of the things I stated above.
Also, make sure you follow up on every customer who buys from you this week and ask them to make a video of them unboxing your products when they receive them.
