Have you given your customers anything for free lately?

 Have you given your customers anything for free lately?

I know that doesn't sound logical, you're in business to make money right.  But when you look at it from the other side of the table, the main reason you or anyone else browses the internet, calls or walks into a store is to find information.  And finding the right information and getting something for free will in most cases will give potential customers a better opinion of your business and your website. Do it often enough and people will start to think of you as a friend!

That's right I said friend when you're on Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest or using Twitter - it's called social media for a reason, people (your customers) want to feel useful and involved.  By shareing something thats interesting, new or poorly understood on social media (your information), your customers can share with their friends and the rest of the world. WHY? It makes them (your customers) look good and feel involved, Best of all they know which of their friends are interested in your service business or product.  How good is it when your customers are selling your product or service for you, for free, on their own time, now you are correctly using social media.

It's important to understand that, Just pushing an typical advertising on social media is like somebody showing up at the door, trying to get you to change power suppliers at 6:30 on Tuesday evening, NOT GOOD ~ You where thinking along the lines of "Go away" but it probably took a bit longer to say.

Take the time, do it right and your customers will be selling your product or service for you, for free, on their own time.
