Facebook Marketing – Effective Strategies for Businesses

Whether you enjoy it or not, social media is here to stay. Nearly every day, people interact with it as observers or active participants. All of these users are searching for relevant content and are a potential audience for your products. To compete in the current market, it makes sense to reach this audience with a solid social media marketing strategy. As many business owners are discovering, Facebook marketing should be a key element of this social media marketing strategy.

Why Your Business Should Be on Facebook

Initially, if you’re wondering if Facebook marketing is a good tool, let’s consider numbers. The amount of people on a social network and Facebook seems to expand every day. In 2018, Facebook had over 2 billion (yes, we said BILLION) active monthly users. That is a massive number of potential customers waiting to discover more about your business and brand. It’s a significant amount of people that you can reach via a social network.

Plus, Facebook is an inexpensive way to market a small business. Creating a business page on Facebook is free. That’s not the only thing that doesn’t cost you a dime. Putting up a cover photo is free. Reaching followers is free. Word-of-mouth-marketing on Facebook is free. Creating posts in your news feed is free.

Furthermore, its platform is user-friendly. Therefore, creating a page is easy for users on Facebook.

Moreover, other businesses clearly see its worth. Currently, over 50 million business owners have a platform on Facebook. Considering that 93% of consumer buying decisions are influenced by social media, we can see why they’re there.

A Professional Agency Will Help Your Digital Strategy

All that said, the information about Facebook being easy, free and attainable is true. However, it is time-consuming. While you can easily build a page, have a presence and consider it done, why not maximize your benefits as much as possible? To maximize those benefits, it’s imperative to have a cohesive marketing strategy from the beginning.

Since every other business, including your competitors, can build a page as easily as you, it’s important to create a page that stands out. Clearly, social media is a graphics-driven platform. Customers and followers expect quality content. From your cover photo to each of your posts, it’s imperative to reflect your business properly and begin maximization from the start.

At conversionMOXY, we understand that in a digital world you often only have seconds to show yourself. Consequently, you can’t leave design up to chance. From your cover photo to all of your content, we can ensure that your page is eye-catching and attractive.

Similarly, you need to incorporate a design that matches your brand in all aspects, from Facebook marketing to your home page. Customers like consistency. If what they already know about you isn’t well-reflected in all social media, it makes them uncomfortable. In fact, they may even worry that your business Facebook page isn’t truly yours. In turn, they may not trust your posts and content.

From the start, our team gets to know you and your business. In turn, we also gain an understanding of your clients and what they expect. With that information, we create a page that is consistent with your brand. Then, we help you target potential customers and garner the right followers.

Creating Ad Campaigns

While much of the traffic on Facebook is organic, ad campaigns are useful for business owners. When fully incorporated into your marketing strategy, ads are a great way to attract customers. With the proliferation of social media marketers competing for clients, ads also help you stand out. As all social media users know, the news feed is full of constant information. Getting your business into that news feed is imperative to finding new customers. Additionally, it constantly engages loyal fans.

More importantly, a Facebook ad helps you stand out with your target audience. For instance, if you have a post that is relative to certain fans, Facebook ads help you do that. Since you can set custom audiences in Facebook, your ads reach the people you wish them to reach. Target users based on demographics, age, gender and even interests.

Ads are also helpful research tools. After an ad campaign finishes, you can gauge the results. Easily view the audience reach, likes, click-through rate and other parameters. Then, use this information to improve your approach for future ad campaigns.

Our team at conversionMOXY monitors these results for you. In turn, we share this information with you. Then, we develop a strategy to maximize the proficiency of future ad campaigns.

Other Advantages of Social Media

As previously mentioned, Facebook marketing is a great way to tap into free opportunities. When fans like your products and ideas, they share them on Facebook. This word-of-mouth marketing is invaluable to increasing your presence on social media. Additionally, this type of influencer marketing engages users in your brand.

Speaking of brand, Facebook marketing increases brand awareness and website traffic. Posts, ads and other interactions with users keep you on the map. Posts that lead directly to your website draw traffic, which in turn can increase sales. After all, current statistics show that 67% of customers make a purchase after seeing an ad on social media.

Another way to improve your brand in social media is through interacting with customers. For instance, provide customer service through a two-way platform. Customers can ask questions, comment or make suggestions. In real time, you can respond and create a dialogue. Likewise, customers can share reviews and their fabulous experiences with your business. Positive reviews build trust with your brand.

Conversely, when a customer is unhappy, they are also prone to hop on the internet and write a review. Whether you’re on Facebook or not, they will likely still provide feedback. It is wise to be available when this occurs and have a platform, such as Facebook, from which you can mitigate the issue at hand. A quick response and solution can turn an unsatisfied customer into one of your happiest fans. Additionally, this is excellent motivation to provide the best products and services possible at all times.

Not only can you increase current awareness, but Facebook is great platform to collect consumer data and build a marketing database. Collect emails and contact information for potential customers. Or, gather sales leads based on analytics and other insights. Insights also provide valuable information about your current audience base. With this information, you can tailor content and posts.
