The Transformation from Business Centric to Brand Centric
There was a time when we, too, were using this approach, and it lasted for three long years.
You might be familiar with the scenario where people eagerly comment on every personal post you share, but when it comes to your business-related posts, the response is often silence.
This realization led us to shift our focus from company to brand, using our profiles to attract the right people through the content we shared.
Once we made this shift, we started getting daily leads and prospects, transforming our social media profile into a digital business card.
The Power of Personal Branding
Your social media profile is a very powerful and free tool that can be used to attract new customers and team members, if used correctly.
The first step is to define your brand.
Remember, your brand isn’t a catchy hashtag or your company’s name – your brand is you.
Consider what inspires you, what you are passionate about, and how these things tie into your niche.
Your brand should be a window into your life, interests, and the products you’re selling and representing.
Your goal is to pique curiosity, encouraging people to ask about your work without giving everything away up front.
The First Impression Matters
Next, pay attention to your profile picture.
First impressions are indeed crucial.
Your profile picture should be clear, bright, happy, and a close-up of you.
Selfies work just as well, so no professional photography is required.
Refrain from using pictures of your product or your company.
Adding Inspiration with Cover Photos and Bio
Then, update your cover photo.
An inspirational or motivational quote, or a photo of you with your family or friends, can work wonders.
Again, avoid company logos.
Subsequently, clean up your bio or intro.
What can you say about yourself that tells your followers a bit more about what you do, who you are, and what you represent?
An example could be, “Helping entrepreneurs live freedom-filled lives using social media.”
Detoxing Your Profile
Lastly, clean up your timeline.
Remove any posts that loudly advertise your product names and company, such as “before and after” pictures, promotional posts, or posts showing all the packages and prices of your products.
Instead, focus on creating an environment that does not make people feel they’re being sold to.
Transforming your profile into your digital business card and ditching the company’s running billboard approach can skyrocket your business.
It’s smart marketing – you become a magnet attracting the right people without having to chase them down.
