Social Media Marketing for Small Businesses
Believe it or not, social media is one of the most powerful marketing tools available online today to attract potential customers with high quality content.
Every single day, there are millions of people logging into social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok, etc. Creating and maintaining a social media presence offers the ability for individuals to exchange ideas, share photos and videos, inquire about new job opportunities, write reviews, and like, comment, and share posts from friends, family, and businesses.
The Power of Social Media Marketing for Your Brand
A social media platform such as Facebook has over 2 billion active users in their social network and provides small businesses an amazing opportunity to market goods and services to an untapped market eager to purchase your products or services. Facebook also offers affordable advertising options to enhance post visibility and advertising options for marketing directly to your target audience directly, whether you’re looking to build brand awareness or sell products or services. Targeting options for advertising on the platform include location (perfect for local businesses), age, income, and so much more.
Instagram is a hyper visual platform that requires images and video content in order to gain access to its users which is well in excess of 1 billion users. Like Facebook, Instagram offers advertising options for promoting your products and services to targeted demographics.

How We Can Help Your Business with Social Media Marketing
Whether you’re operating a pizza shop in Clermont, Florida or a fishing charter in Boston, MA, social media can boost your company’s exposure locally to an eager and motivated audience in and around your local area. However, not all social media platforms are created equal in terms of effectiveness and most require a small monthly budget for promoting your business through social media advertising on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram.
In the case of Facebook and Instagram, businesses need to first claim their social media accounts and then optimize the social profiles. Once these social media channels are set up and optimized, businesses need to first have a social media strategy in place to ensure a smooth rollout of regular content additions to the profiles (images, videos, static content, memes, etc) that will resonate with their target audience.
The most effective social media marketing tactics your business we’ve seen work for small businesses focused on local client acquisition include using:
