NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Leading internet marketing company, fishbat, shares three ways bolt seals companies can use social media to acquire new clients and retain current ones.

Social media attracts millions of users. Bolt seals companies that take advantage of social media can find new ways to attract and retain customers. The following three strategies are an excellent way to get started:

1. Search for brand mentions and related products. Several million messages are sent across social media platforms each day. Chances are someone has mentioned your brand, or something related to your brand. These are opportunities to acquire customers. To gain their business, you'll first need to find them. This can be done by searching for certain phrases. Once you've found potential customers, start getting in front of them on social media. You can also apply this concept to see what your competition is doing—what they're talking about and who is following them.
2. Be social. Attract social media followers by hosting competitions or games that cater to the users of each social media platform. This strategy is a great way to build the kind of brand awareness that translates to sales. It's also a nice way to develop relationships with customers, enhance your credibility and build trust with new and existing audiences. If hosting a competition on social media doesn't appeal to you, you could simply feature customers and employees by sharing their successes. Social media is all about being personal and engaging, so don't be afraid to break out of the business mode now and again.
3. Use pictures. Pictures increase the aesthetic appeal of messages sent across social media. A picture can say a great deal more than words too. This is important when you're limited to just how much you can say in a single message on a given social media platform. Attract new clients and keep existing customers interested with exciting, eye-popping visuals. If your platforms are something your customers browse in their spare time on their phones, you have a great opportunity to strengthen your brand and you'll have a great opportunity to retain more customers too.
