Putting together social media posts, writing emails, and creating marketing materials can be time-consuming.
Here at poddle, we do our best to take the strain away from your business and allow you to focus on what really matters – keeping loyal customers. As a team, we have put together a few tips & tricks to help you promote that your business uses poddle in an easy-to-use way.
Using the promotional methods within your poddle Promotion Centre, you can do the below:
You can promote that your business uses poddle to reward your customers, what rewards you offer as part of your Retain & Grow scheme, and/or any rewards you have as part of sales campaigns across social media platforms.
With Facebook, you have probably noticed you can have quite a hefty word count. However, we recommend a maximum of 40-50 characters per post. Your customers focus more on the link and its description than anything else – but do not worry, the link is something we cover for you.
You just need to write 40-50 characters that grab their attention and intrigue them to click the link for more information.
X has now doubled the number of characters per post. This gives you more flexibility to write something that grabs the attention of your customers. We recommend using the 280 characters as part of your post and a maximum of two hashtags.
Much like Facebook, you can say a lot on LinkedIn. However, we recommend a post headline to be 100 characters, with your post body 200-250 characters long to make sure it doesn’t trigger a “See More” button that your customers may not want to click on.
The most popular Instagram posts contain captions that are under 125 characters as they get cut off after the first two lines. We would recommend using hashtags and @mentions for more reach.
