Social media is an extremely powerful marketing tool and can help grow your business literally over night. You need to be able to gain followers and likes to your profile in order to reach a larger audience and attract new business.

Often if you like a company or an individual they will like your page in return, but this can be a slow process and does not always work. One of the best ways to gain followers is by running competitions. You can offer a prize draw competition and include every one that likes or shares your page. This can add hundreds of new followers to your profile within a few hours and costs very little to do.

Once you have a number of followers you need to ensure that you carry on offering them information that they will be interested in and incentives to stay following you such as discounts or notifications of up coming offers.
