Using social media on a personal approach

I was surprised to learn of a friend who is selling household items with her marketing done in social media. She said that she had invested in gaining friends and followers last year. When she started her business she already has a thousand followers but just about 10% are reacting to her business posts. What followed was the creation of her Facebook Page and the followers grew faster.

The trick in gaining followers is to post the names of the buyers. Of course, the posting has the permission of the buyer otherwise only the hint to the location of the buyer is posted. With the mention of the names, some others agreed to the posting of the pictures. When there is a delivery the buyer is pictured with the goods. Now the growing number of customers can be attributed to the personal approach being done to customers. They love to see their picture posted in the social media page of the seller. It is a good trick that I guess can be done by anyone.

Generally marketing or promoting one business on social media is very good in time like this covid-19 period.
To be candid one may have millions of followers but its only few one that use yo buy goods or services .

Your friend has a very good way of marketing her business. That's the essence of being smart with what we do. You don't need to do what other do to make it or become a successful business person. Trying what others have never done is the surest way of becoming a successful business person. Your friend has tried it and it worked for her.

Social media marketing works when you have lots of followers, people will take interest in product if they find it worth usable and available at reasonable price. Covid situation has made online market a big hit, but to attract customer, it requires to get with their likeness, your friend got many paid followers, but only those will take interest in the product who need those products at the price mentioned.

Yes of course social media marketing works a lot but sometimes it is hard for you to get enough followers on your social media accounts but once you have gotten enough full, it is very easy for you to start marketing or advertising business. You can also use your social media to promote people's Brand and product.

It is one of the secret e-commerce websites use in keeping their customers.customer service delivery is very important for any e-commerce website in the sense that if a customer have a good experience with that particular company he or she must come back in the nearest future to make another purchase. Customer service delivery is also important in every business because it helps in retaining customers.

Apart from the aspect of posting of the buyers names on social media one way that you can actually boost your followers especially if you are somebody that sells product is to be posting the reviews of people that have bought before. You can always ask people who make a purchase to give you a valuable feedback whenever they use it. You

This is very nice trick your friend is using and I believe this was possible because so many people like being popular on social media and an opportunity like this mean so much to them as it would help them get more followership too. This is actually a win win situation for the two.
