Remember the days when the only way you could get in touch with all of your clientele at once was to send out a flier? Today’s high-paced world means that you have to do things very differently, and one of the biggest changes businesses have to make is being socially plugged in. Websites like Facebook and Twitter allow you to not only keep in touch with all of your current clients and customers, and to make others aware of your business or services. Lots of businesses sign up for Facebook accounts, but they don’t know how to use it properly in order to get the most from the site.
The Right Information
When you set up your Facebook page for your moonwalk business you first need to make sure that you’ve put all of the information on the site that your customers could want. You need to make sure you’ve added your businesses address, even if it’s just the city and state, as well as your contact information. While an email address is a great idea, a phone number will likely generate you more business. You should also make sure that you’ve added your name, as clients feel more comfortable speaking with someone when they know what their real name is, and you should be sure to include a link to your website address. Without these things you’ll find your Facebook page very ineffective.
Photos
One thing that far too many who rent out moonwalks and who use Facebook forget to do is to post photos! A picture is definitely worth a thousand words, or to you it could be worth a few hundred bucks. Clients and customers like to be able to see the products that you’re renting out so pick a nice day and a large, open space and set up your moonwalks one at a time. Make sure you take photos of not only the moonwalk, but also of children using the moonwalks as well. This gives clients a way to see exactly how the moonwalk works. You can even post a video of children jumping and can narrate the video as well, pointing out how long it takes to inflate and giving tips during the video.
Above all, make sure that you keep your Facebook page updated. Don’t set it up and then ignore it. The whole point of social media is to keep in touch with people, so make sure you keep in touch with your clients as often as you possibly can through your Facebook page. Post specials that you have going on and comment about how much fun your recent customers seemed to have with their rental. All of these little things add up to big returns if done correctly.
