Unknown
to many of us, the various social media sites are competing against each other.
You may not realize it, but they are basically waging war against each other just
to win you over. Their mission is to get every citizen of the world a member of
their social media site.
But
if you are as brilliant as the minds behind these successful social media sites
you can actually turn the table around and use them to your own business
advantage. You may not get a share of the huge amount they are earning, but you
can promote your business, products and services by getting free memberships
from all of them. Use the following social media platforms to increase your
sales:
It
is the most famous of all social media sites today. In fact, Facebook is ranked
second by Alexa, next only to Google in terms of Web site visitors. By joining
this social media site, your business is instantly exposed to over 300 million
Facebook users in every street of the world. To get into the veins of Facebook
marketing, you are required, of course, to join the site, which is free. As you
start to gather your friends, you can create a page exclusively dedicated to
your business where you can communicate and promote your products and services
to your customers who are themselves members of your group.
Facebook
also offers an advertising package for a minimal fee. In this advertising
package, you are given the power to decide who will see your ads, such as their
location, age, educational levels, marital status, and many other choices.
In
the past year, Twitter has significantly increased its popularity along with
its memberships. Today, Twitter brags of its 100 million members scattered
around the globe. By joining Twitter, you can avail of its unique platform of
sending communication to your friends, called tweets. By sending out
interesting, informative and relevant posts, you can also promote your
business, products and services. What is amazing about Twitter is the fact that

is conducive for busy people like you. You can send out bite sized information
about a new product or service you are promoting. In this way, you are given a
chance to market your business for free!
Multimedia
The
rise of technology has given businesses a new platform to promote their
products and services online in a whole new level. The old advertising tools
(print and television) are overtaken by the coming of online marketing videos,
photos and audios. These new social media tools are seen to be effective in
bringing awareness to the people what a business is all about. On the internet,
YouTube is the authority when it comes to online video advertising as anybody
can create a profile and upload videos for free. Once a video is uploaded, the
world stands by to watch it. On the other hand, Flickr is a good way to promote
your products by posting photos at your profile. This is an excellent venue for
your customers to evaluate your products as the photos (of your products) are
posted and seen on Flickr.
There
are other social media tools you can use to skyrocket your business. For more
