Focus on your brand message and communicate it effectively, using the right tone, voice and colours.

Engage with followers

The more you engage with your already existing followers, the more visibility you get. Twitter, for instance, is a platform of threads upon threads. The more tweets you put out and conversations you get into, the more your followers get to like, retweet and comment. These actions by your existing followers invariably put you in front of their own funnel.

Collaborate with others

To gain visibility on social media, you can collaborate with other brands in your niche or influencers. You can engage in CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) programs, organize contests and host giveaways. These other brands and influencers have their own network, which you can jump in front of when you collaborate with them.

Remember to always connect emotionally with your audience. Post useful and quality content. Run ads if you have the budget. Remain consistent. It will take time to gain visibility. But in the end, it will pay off on your business.
