Many companies prefer to promote themselves on platforms such as Instagram or even TikTok as of late, however, that’s not always the best possible choice as the right choice is going to be whichever platform the audience that the company is trying to target prefers to use. That’s why plenty of companies should actually be promoting themselves and connecting with their audiences on platforms such as Facebook or Pinterest instead.

Pinterest

Many people might not realize how popular Pinterest is, and has always been, as well as the fact that it’s one of the biggest search engines for many consumers. A lot of people also have trouble distinguishing between the fact that Pinterest is supposed to be a visual search engine that people can use, however, a lot of people tend to use it as specifically a social media platform, or specifically a search engine. Nevertheless, Pinterest allows companies to generate a lot of website traffic, and increase their sales, as well as their authority and credibility in the market. That means if a company has any sort of audience that prefers to use Pinterest, and it’s not taking advantage of the platform, that business is missing out on a lot. To get started with the platform as part of a promotional strategy, companies will first have to create a business account on the platform and enable rich pins. This will allow companies to create boards and content that’s going to grab the attention of the target audience, and even expand the audience that the company is trying to reach, while also engaging with people directly on the platform. By adding an automation tool specifically for Pinterest, and utilizing the right keywords, companies will be able to grow their followers on Pinterest, which will, in turn, generate a lot more website traffic, and position the company as an industry leader, which is going to generate a lot more sales.

Facebook

Another great platform that many companies have started to overlook in terms of promotional efforts is Facebook, and not just creating a branded page on the platform, but making a group that people can join to follow the business instead. The algorithm that Facebook has been using to present content to its users has been changed, which means it’s become a lot more difficult for companies to truly utilize the promotional potential that the platform gives through pages, compared to what’s possible with groups. Essentially, Facebook changed the algorithm so that users start seeing a lot more content from their social circles and the groups they follow instead of the pages and other types of public content from companies. ps they follow instead of the pages and other types of public content from companies.
