All female entrepreneurs should promote themselves on social media. In fact, according to a study by Facebook Research, out of nearly 100 countries about 80% of businesswomen expressed that social media helps their business. You can use both business and personal accounts to promote yourself as a thought leader in your field and grow your business.
Here are three reasons you should use social media to promote yourself, and in turn, benefit your business.
1.Put a Human Face to the Brand
You can use social media to put a human face behind your brand. People trust people more than brands because we relate better to individuals. Show that you are human, that you make mistakes, and share how you dealt with them. Being transparent on social media will help build brand loyalty and trust.
2.Network with Like-Minded Women
Female entrepreneurs should promote themselves on social media by networking with other businesswomen, finding mentors and becoming a role model. Social media makes it easy to connect with other businesswomen in your niche and give and receive advice.
Businesswomen typically have more interaction on social media than their male counterparts, according to Facebook Research. The study found that one of the top reasons that female entrepreneurs found social media helped their business was building a community and mentorship.
A great way to connect with like=minded women on social media is by joining groups on Facebook and LinkedIn. As a business coach for women, I have a great Facebook page with resources for every female entrepreneur.
3.Grow Your Business
Social media is a great tool to help grow your business, bring in revenue and boost your SEO. Social media helps get your name out there and simply having social media accounts can help improve your SEO ranking.
Plus, it is relatively inexpensive. Social media is an affordable way for female entrepreneurs to promote themselves. You can use social media to organically grow a following, even on a small budget.
