Social media marketing in Nigeria is simply selling a product or a service to millions of Nigerians on different social media sites. This might look simple but it requires a lot of hard and smart work to really make money online with social media marketing in Nigeria. Today, I’ll show you how to make more profit on social media. You can start today and start making money online in some days ahead.
What are the Benefits of Social Media Marketing in Nigeria?
The benefits are as follows but they are not limited to these alone.
– More Generated Leads
– Increased Brand Exposure
– Reduced Traditional Marketing Expenses
– Increased Business Partnerships
– More loyal fans, followers, and customers
– Good marketing insights and analytics
– Increased Search Engine Rankings which makes your business easy to find
– Increased traffic to your business website or blog
In short, with social media marketing, you will get more customers, sales, brands exposure, influence, etc if this is done right. This is possible because humans are created as a social being and we would buy a product or service based on a friend’s recommendation on social media sites. If you are a business owner or an individual, you can make money online with social media marketing in Nigeria.
To make money online in Nigeria with social media marketing, you have to be a good social media marketer. This you can be as a business owner or an individual. For the purpose of this post, I’ll concentrate on being an individual social media marketer. This is because people on social media sites prefer to relate to individuals than a business.
How to Make Money as a Social Media Marketer
To make money, first, you need to be a brand ambassador online. As a social media marketer on social media sites, you would be contracted to represent a brand in a genuine and enthusiastic way. The brands can contact you personally or you find them out and contact them yourself. You will be compensated for your ambassadorship for promoting the brand’s products and services. Sometimes, you get paid for promoting alone and some other times, you get paid for generating actual sales for the brand/business.
Each promotion is different, but generally, as a social media marketer, you are expected to create a buzz and actualize the benefits of social media marketing in Nigeria for the brand/business you are promoting. You can achieve this on different social media sites and blogs where you have a large influence and engagement. Every time you promote the brand, everyone following you on social media sites should be able to see the promotions and they should also be able to engage what you are marketing. This they can do by re-sharing, retweeting, re-posting, commenting, making a purchase of the product or service. However, what you market should be commensurate with what your social media fans and followers really like/want/need.
This means that if like say 1,000 people who follow you on social media sites are part of what you are marketing, you are virtually guaranteed 999 retweets on Twitter, 999 shares on Facebook, etc. In other words, the more people engage with what you are marketing, the more money you can make from social media marketing in Nigeria.
Social Media Marketing (or Influencer) Marketing is a new form of marketing where companies hire influential bloggers or people online so as to promote and endorse their brand, products or services. For years, big brands like Nike would hire celebrities like Micheal Jordan to endorse their products. These celebrities had tremendous reach and influence through television. Today, bloggers and social media marketers/enthusiasts are the celebrities of the Internet.
As a social media marketer, you need to put yourself in a position where businesses can hire you to promote their products, services, and brand. They are on the lookout for who they can work together to achieve their single brand goal as specified in the benefits of social media marketing in Nigeria. You can make huge cash consistently with your huge reach on social media sites.
If you have the reach, start marketing yourself to different businesses online and offline. Package yourself and get the deals to promote these businesses. If you don’t have the reach yet, start working on yourself. Get good followings on different social media sites, increase your influence, increase your engagement (not sith those silly jokes and gossips).
I hope this helps?
