1. Multiple applications of social media
It is simply not possible to participate in all applications, primarily because “being active” is one of the key conditions for success. Choose the ones that your potential customers are using the most.
2. Coordinate activities
Sometimes companies can choose to advertise on various social media, or a set of different applications within the same group, in order to achieve the best results. In this case, this is crucial to ensure that your social media activities are aligned with one another.

6. Be interesting
If a company wants its clients to cooperate with it, it should give them the reason for doing so. The first step is listening to the client.
