What’s up guys I’m Andrea and I’m the Social Media Manager here at ReminderMedia. Quality is one of our top priorities here and to make sure that happens we focus a lot on customer service. The next three points are going to go over why that should be just as important to you.
Number one
My first tip for you today is to leverage live videos on Facebook to answer questions. Live videos are currently the highest engagement rate on Facebook of any medium, so use that to your advantage. Hold a Q&A session to answer questions, or even better, walk around your office and have your teammates, your co-workers, or your employees answer those questions for you. That way your fans are getting a behind-the-scenes look at your workspace and they’re also connecting more faces to your brand.
I do have a bonus tip, and that’s to create an event for your live video on Facebook that way you’re getting even more eyes on your content.
Number two
My second tip for you today is to be an open book with your content. Your fans will download your content, sure, but to nurture that relationship and build brand trust you’re gonna need to post a lot more than lead magnets. Share an exciting company update, ask for feedback, or even post pictures of your leadership team. Everyone wants to see what’s going on at your company or brand.
Number three
My third and final tip, and arguably most important is to respond, always. Never, ever leave a comment, a review, or a message unanswered. This shows that you’re paying attentionand more importantly that you care about your customer service. You’re gonna receive good and bad feedback on Facebook, and that’s okay. Just make sure that you’re thanking the good ones and reassuring the bad ones.
