Show Me How You Can Get Business With Social Media!

My friends and I used to get the same question about once a week, “Show me one way that social media has got us business?!?” We would respond with some pretty good examples, and a few large sales we got directly from using social media sites. The next week we would get the same question. And the next week, and the week after that.

Here is a recent example from my Facebook friends on how to get business using social media. Maybe screenshots will make it easy to understand and remember.

How easy was that? A friend remembered that another friend did fence work, they used social media to make the connection, and then you have a lead and potential business.

So how did Chrissy remember that Rachel’s family builds fences? Maybe some of Rachel’s messages on Facebook used a creative way to remind her friends in need of a fence . . . here’s one:

Ask some of your best clients if they’re on Facebook and friend them. Follow what they’re doing, learn about them, make conversation, remind them about your business, and get more business. Luckily I don’t have to answer the weekly question anymore: “Show me one way you can get business with social media?” But if I did, I would just tell them to visit this post and see what Rachel is doing with social media to help sell fences.

You can even sell fences on Facebook? Yes you can.
