Introduction: • Social media prospecting involves trying to boost sales of a product or service via social media websites. • It requires a business to be present in social media and have relevant accounts to do the same. • A lot of planning and management goes into social media prospecting for a campaign to be highly effective. • That is why a lot of businesses employ 3rd party social media prospecting firms who are better equipped with making the most out of social media management tools. • With a huge potential and diverse reach on social media, here are 4 ways to make better use of social prospecting.
Getting the Content Right: • Most businesses use social media posts and advertisements to attract potential interest from relevant users. • It is important to get the content right, which can be a make or break factor for the campaign involved. • Only a good and relevant content will attract users; bad and irrelevant ones will be left ignored by others. • Content should not be limited only to written texts; high quality images, pictographs, videos and gifs should also be used to draw in potential customers.
Proper Social Media Management: • Social media management is as important as creating the right plans for social media prospecting. • SM management involves using tools provided social media websites to monitor potential prospects and check how successful or unsuccessful a campaign is. • Every social media website has its own set of dedicated tools for ad management and obtaining all kinds of non-personal user data such as number of clicks, shares, backlinks, device used, initiation and many more. • The data obtained from these stats can help business plan their future posts and ad campaigns in a more effective way and target only those users who are likely to convert into leads, and finally into paying customers.
Using 3rd Party Social Media Tools: • Sometimes, even the tools provided in-house by social media websites falls short of what business want to do with them, whether it is the management or ability to send out posts and ads to all social media websites at once. • This is where 3rd party tools come in; these are specialized tools that help in much better management, especially directing all social media aspects from a single place. • Some of these tools even contain additional features not found in social media websites. • The best tools are Hootsuite, Buffer, Sendible, Post Planner, Sprout Social and MeetEdgar.
Working With Social Media Groups: • Social media groups bring like-minded people together, making it a great opportunity for businesses to touch base, for a lot of people research about products or services on social media before buying. • Businesses can even create their own groups and invite potential customers or leads into those groups. • Groups promote discussion among participants and group members, allowing businesses to clarify any questions or doubts about their products, services and other promotional campaigns. • It is important for businesses to be active in groups so that customer interest in their products or services does not dwindle.
