the benefits of
social media
Spending 9-plus hours in a treatment room all day can leave you feeling socially neglected! Enter
the power of online networking in the form of LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and the like. Face-toface contact has been one-upped by tweeting and writing on each other’s walls. If all this keeps us
connected in an instant, why not market ourselves just as fast?
Faster than a postcard, more customisable than e-mail, Internet social networking sites are the
superman of marketing. It’s all about tweeting on Twitter and poking on Facebook – and if your
business isn’t on-board, you’re missing around-the-clock client communication opportunities.
Fact: Social networks and blogs are the 4th most popular online activities, higher than
personal email.
Fact: 67% of global users visit member communities and 10% of all time spent on the
internet is on social media sites.
Fact: On average each adult with a social networking page or profile has profiles on 1.6 sites,
and 39% of adults have profiles on two or more sites.
Fact: Half of all current adult (age 16+) social networkers say that they access their profiles at
least every other day.
why your business needs Facebook
Follow our checklist for broadcasting your business online. This example works specifically with
Facebook – explore sites like Twitter and LinkedIn to really maximise your presence!
 If you’re already connected: Create a fan page under your name or the name of your business. If you’re
new to Facebook, go to facebook.com and create an account – it’s free!
Brand your page with photos of your space, event photos as well as a treatment menu.
Offer a saving on a treatment or special travel-sized product pack to those who become a fan of
your page.
Offer client incentives to those who invite their friends to be your fan!
Keep postings focused on your most popular treatments and most common client questions.
Keep in touch once a week by writing a professional tip on your wall, advertising special product
promotions with a photo, or promoting events.
Did your 3pm cancel? Broadcast openings to fans and fill that spot fast.
