4 Ways To Get More Clients If You’re a Local Business Owner Part 2
1. Post in Facebook Groups
Another way to use Facebook to get local customers is with Facebook Groups.
Search Facebook for local groups including business networking groups, industry related groups, or even parent or yard sale groups!
Joining groups that your target market is in and posting your content in them makes group members more likely to engage with your business. Just be careful not to only post your content.
Show interest in others’ content, promote articles from other sources, and engage in a two-way conversation.
2. Connect with local influencers
Do you know a blogger or local influencer in your geographic or niche community whom people trust?
Get to know that person or group of people and offer them a free service or product.
Getting someone with strong local influence to try your business means that they might endorse your product to their followers.
3. Flyers
Flyers aren’t just for yard sales and finding your missing pet—they are another quick and easy local marketing strategy that can help attract more local customers.
Print out as many copies as you think you’ll need and hand them out in an area with a lot of potential customers.
Local supermarkets, festivals, and sporting arenas are good locations for getting your local community to learn more about your business.
4. Encourage word-of-mouth marketing
Word of mouth is also a highly effective local marketing tactic.
The best thing you can do to promote word-of-mouth in your local area, of course, is to provide outstanding customer service.
You should also be proactive by asking for reviews, in person, via email, or on social media.
One last idea is to package a solid offer up in a shareable email or social media post.
If your audience members feel that someone they know could benefit as well, they’ll be happy to forward along to family and friends, increasing your business’s local exposure.
