Many people come to me and complain about not making sales on Social Media despite the fact that they post almost every day. Even when you've found the perfect social media platform to engage your target audience, your marketing efforts may not be effective if none of them has heard of you before.

Below are some of the reasons you are not making sales:

1. Your Business is too *Salesy*: Visiting your page, what will I Find? Only your Products? Every time, come and buy. Did you put money in my account? Why can't I come to your page and be entertained, educated and informed while you are still selling your products? In short, your page must not be about your business alone.

2. No hashtag: Some online sellers don't make use of a hashtag, especially on Instagram. Using relevant, targeted hashtags on your posts and stories is still one of the best ways to get discovered by new audiences on Instagram. And this can translate into more engagement, more followers, and more customers for your business.

3. No Reviews: You need to post what people are saying about your business. It might be about fast delivery, about your customer service and even about the effectiveness of your products. Are you into fashion? Let people snap and send to you. Sometimes, you may have to tell your customer to say one or two things. Posting Reviews eliminates Scam from the mind of prospecting customers. They tend to trust you more and want to buy from you.

4. No Humanization: You need to humanize your business. Your business needs to feel what people are feeling. Is the Country sad about any event? Your business should also be sad (Post about it), is the country Happy? Your business must be happy. Did the country lose a match? Post about this. Is there an election? Pray for a successful one. Muslim Celebration? Celebrate your Muslim Customers. This should also be the same with all the public holidays in the calendar.

5. No Advert: This is so funny. Why won't you run sponsored ads? MTN, GLO, AIRTEL and even Banks are always running ads to stay in the face of their customers but you don't run ads for yours? How does it work? You should always have a monthly budget to run ads for your business. There are many competitors and you should always be ahead of them.

The best post I've read all day. Thank you.

I forgot..... Put pressure on your political leaders.

Democracy is hard work and perseverance.

You're simply a Fulani sympathizer. I'm not sure you'll make this case if this killing was the other way around.

tactius:
That is why you should vote for parties other than APC and PDP.

Also, fulanis too are thinking the way you are thinking. That's why we have the violence we have

So we should wait another four years to change government before we defend ourselves? Who will still be alive then. If the Fulani are feeling insecure they should call their brothers to order. That's the only solution. They started the killings.

tactius:
Because the police is handicapped by lack of funds and again by people not trusting the police.

Also for all we know someone is hiding the perp.

So the police should also be handicapped in this situation now, since they were handicapped in the first 5 deaths.

tactius:
Well, the crime should have been reported to the police, and they would have investigated and the perp arrested and charged.

But instead, one innocent guy who knows nothing of the crime got killed.

The sad thing is that Fulani too don't trust the police. They will now go and kill an innocent person

And the cycle continues.

Anyway, Fulani should not take the laws into their hands and revenge this death. Let them call the police.

Stop all these police talk please. That lady is the sixth person killed in that community. Every death was reported. What did the police do after the first death, then second, up to the 5th. Now the 6th is gone. How many more will die before we have sense?

All of you writing all sorts up there, do you know that lady was the 6th person killed in that location? Do you know reports had been made to the police? Do you know the police did nothing?


The police men are only investigating now because a Fulani has been killed.


Yes, we don't like violence. But if that's the weapon we can use to defend ourselves, so be it. They had it coming anyway
