As you approach the launch date for your product or service, there are a few key things to consider when it comes to social media. Here's what to do before you launch:
Set clear goals: Before you post anything, determine what you want to achieve through social media. Do you want to increase brand awareness, build a customer base, or get more engagement? Setting a few clear goals will help you measure the success of your social media activity.
Monitor public sentiment: Track public sentiment about your product or brand by using social listening tools. This will tell you what people are saying about what you're launching and help you understand how to engage and reach out to potential customers.
Use organic and paid content: Create organic content to educate, inform and engage potential customers while they are in the research and decision making stages. Use paid content to drive conversions and target specific audiences.
Build anticipation: Build up the anticipation for your launch by teasing it ahead of time. Teasers should pique people’s curiosity and send them to your website or landing page to learn more.
Engage influencers: Reach out to influential people in your industry to get them behind your product or service. Have influencers tweet, post, or otherwise share your content to their network.
If you follow these steps when you launch, you should set yourself up for success on social media. Good luck!
