Why use Twitter and Facebook?

August 16, 2010

If you haven’t heard already, two of the biggest websites of recent times are the social networking sites, Twitter and Facebook.

Whilst great for keeping in touch with loved ones and new friends, they are also great business tools for promotion.

Although we help setup accounts for our clients, we encourage them to get actively involved in using them.

With both tools, the trick is to add your friends, local businesses and people in your target market who you think may be interested in using your business. Then once you have built a large network of people, keep in touch with them letting them know your latest special offers, any news about the business or even just be friendly and make your business seem approachable should people wish to ask questions.

In summary, we believe that Facebook and Twitter is a bit like leafleting online. Try and connect with as many people as you can to keep them aware of your brand and business whilst also increasing the likelihood of increasing new business.
