Finding it hard to grow your
followers? It is no rocket science and anyone can do it. You can also bag a
handful of followers and become an influencer by practicing few basic tips. Try
these basic techniques and we will get back with some more social media hacks.
Complete your profile
Incomplete profile appears fake,
unreal and dummy. First step to earning more followers on Social Media is to
accept the community whole-heartedly. Don’t just be there for the sake of existing.
Open up and share what you think is important about you. Complete all the
sections that you have answers to or would like to share with the world. This
builds authenticity and opportunity to connect with your target audience or
customers. For businesses it is almost inevitable. Be genuine. All the time.
Also, know what to share. Don’t
share any kind of private information like phone numbers, address and others
that can be used against you by stalkers.
Always share useful content
Re-sharable content is the best
type of content. Give your connections something of value, useful information,
a tip from your expertise, a fact or that touches human emotion. Do not sound
pushy in your content and designs; forget the product for a while. Let’s just
connect, talk and share about something common.
Give them something useful to
come back and follow you instead of random selfies and gags. Make them hit
follow button by being valuable. Reflect your brand or product in a subtle way.
Talk like a real person
People like talking to real
people, just like you. Be what you are. A real person. Yes! This applies for
businesses too. If you build a personality around your brand, the chances of
people trusting you are higher. People like to know the man in action, the person
behind any ide and real life stores that they can relate with.
Create a persona on social media
channels and live by it. Whenever you follow your favorite star on facebook,
what excites you most? Seeing a real time update from them like “Going for the shoot”
and “weekend hangout with my lovelies”, where you can see them hanging out in
real-life. You never fall for obsessive fan pages that post almost everything.
Value Consistency & Trends
Social media is about now and
wow! If you want to rule this world with class never ever forget to be
consistent. Post regularly on your schedule, whatever you decide it to be.
People like to interact with only those who are alive, interested and keen on
social media. It is not for those who like to post once in a while or as they
please. Social audience cannot be taken for granted.
Monitor trends and talk about
what interests a group of people to increase your chances of getting followed.
Find trending topics and include it in your content to increase your reach.
But, do it wisely! Find a way to link it to your post seamlessly, to seem
relevant. For businesses, occasional posts like “#mothersday”,
“#HappyChristams” works wonders!
Show back Love
This is the most important factor
of being loved by people on Social Media channels. If you like some post
express it by following or commenting, engage with others to be liked. It’s a
two-way communication between you and your followers.
Make them feel important with
direct interactions and respond to messages as soon as you can. Treat every
connection preciously and you will see how your channels grow.
Get started with these quick tips
to increase followers. Share your experiences how it turned out to be for you
or your business.
Keep it digital.
