Let’s make sure people don’t forget about your brand and business and let’s keep reminding them why your business is awesome!
How can I grow my business?
There are many ways to grow your business from the comfort of your own home or office. Here are a few options you could consider to grow your business effectively:
Social Media
- Social media is a great place to start. Create a Facebook page and/or Instagram or Twitter accounts for your business and start posting regularly to keep the page active and to keep the audience interested. This will open up more channels of communication with existing customers as well as prospects.
- People can also recommend your business by tagging you in a post. This is a fantastic way of marketing because it automatically puts you in direct contact with a prospect with the help of others.
- Ask friends and family to Like & Share your business accounts with others to reach a bigger audience quicker. Alternatively paid marketing campaigns on social media is also very effective to attract a bigger audience.
- Ask audience to review your page. This will help future prospects to see the quality of service. Approximately 80% of people make a judgement based on reviews if they find it difficult to decide between different options.
Website
- Invest in a website for your business. A website is a sense of security and professionalism for prospects. Having a website gives you the edge you need to convince people to choose your business instead of a competitor without an official website.
- Another advantage of having your own personal website is the email addresses associated with your domain. Instead of having a free email address such as Gmail where it’s most of the time difficult to get the ideal email address because it’s already been taken you can have a personalised email address with your name followed by your domain name.
- A website is the ideal place for all your information including information about your business background, your products, services and/or staff members. Where your social media pages might limit you to a summary of the products or services you offer your website is the ideal place to display all the necessary information to the public.
