Use good criticism!
We spoke in the last article about the importance of responding graciously to negative criticism and how it can turn a critic into a fan. By the same token, be sure to maximize on good criticism.
Respond immediately and offer thanks, or if you have an e-book or something valuable to give away, do so as a token of appreciation. Also be sure to publicize these accolades on your posts.
Blow your trumpet with case studies
Another trumpet blowing exercise is to compile blogs and posts – or videos if you have the cash – about case studies, where you have faced and overcome interesting challenges.
This is great testimony, but try to get your client’s buy in to mention their name. Most clients are happy for the mention on social media, if they were really happy with your service.
Keep your enemies close!
Use Google searches and other Digital Marketing methods (preferably conducted by Digital Marketing specialists) to find out what your opposition are saying about you – and Google your opposition to find out what they are offering.
It’s important to know what the competition is doing and even become a ‘connection’ on platforms like LinkedIn, just so you can keep abreast of their marketing offerings.
Be consistent – in all respects
Your contact information, website, e-mails, phone numbers etc. should always be shown on all blogs and posts and be consistent across the board. Even more importantly, be consistent in your marketing messages. Being consistent is one of the first rules of brand building.
It can be very confusing to those with whom you’re engaging if you are not consistent with your whole marketing campaign. It is a bit like having different logos and slogans on your business card and your letterhead.
Use keywords to your advantage
Work with your Social Media Marketing experts to establish keywords based on the words that your customers are reacting to. Once you have established what these keywords are, you can make sure they are used constantly in your blogs, posts and of course on your website.
