Social Media is something that has booming for a while now but many use it wrongly especially for their business which is hurting their industry and their product or service.
With the popularity of social networks that is now ever present in our lives, people tend to miss use its power. I mean that there are people who use it badly to promote their product or service and others are doing a great job in getting more customers and increasing awareness of their business.
For me the crucial part is not being in a hurry or in a rush. You must allow time to build relationship with your customers instead of sending the links out or bombarding them with information. Get to know the people, hear them out and ask great questions to see their need. Many do not get the basic fundamentals to build relationships using social media because of not knowing how to go about it.
During my experience talking with a lot of people and working in social media I found out 3 keys to build relationships on social media for your business to either increase by a good percentage your business or get new people taking a look at your idea. With these strategies I have managed to get more people excited to see what I do far more than ever before. First of all search for like-minded people as it is easier to qualify for your business. There are many pages or keyword searches you can do on the particular social media that you prefer.
- Ask questions and be interested
The best way to remember it is FORM. Which stands for From/Family, Occupation, Recreation & Message. When you interact with new people get to know them by following the FORM. Also if you are using facebook there is a big chance you might find something more interesting to complement them about or you might have something in common. People love to talk about themselves so it is great to ask those questions and be interested in their answers.
- Maintain communication
Catch up with them every now and then. Ask them what are they doing this weekend? How’s their family? Where are they taking vacations this summer? Give them VALUE all the time. Meet up for a coffee if they live nearby. By maintaining communication via the platform of social media you used to connect with helps showcasing you. People join you not what you do.
- Comment and interact with them
Keep in touch with them! Building your relationship by communication either via chat or comments helps in showing interest in that person. Then ask them if they are open to your idea and how it fits them. Follow up with them if they didn’t join or buy from you. A No means not right now.
Applying the 3 keys to build relationships on social media for your business will help you in many ways. You can immediately qualify the people that you are talking with, you can surround yourself with people that you can learn from and exchange ideas and most of all you can find the right people who are willing to join YOU in your venture.
