Think you have to be a rock star to be interesting on social media? Think again!
So, you may not be a Rock Star, or Coca-Cola, but are YOU really boring? Are your staff and customers boring? We don’t think so!
Social media is not right for every business, and it is true that you must update your accounts on a regular basis, and with interesting content. However, you have a story to tell, and the world wants to hear it.
What to do:
Get creative! Talk about local happenings. If you run an independent pharmacy, share general health information and prescription drug news, wellness tips and inspiring photos. Let your personality shine through. Do you have an outgoing person at the register, someone who can observe customer trends, comment on interactions (anonymously of course) and observations?
Watch the competition. See what is working for them, and adapt it to your own unique business.
