It’s easy to post on social media, but that’s just the beginning of creating a valuable online presence today. Social media at its heart has always been about building a community and connecting with others. This has become more important than ever in recent years as we’ve seen engagement rates drop across all industries and platforms.
With engagement rates continuing to trend lower, it’s more important than ever to engage with others in a meaningful, authentic way on social media to help boost your business. It may not seem like much, but liking and replying to a comment on one of your posts or going out of your way to leave a thoughtful comment on someone else’s post in your industry or target audience can go a long way. People notice the extra effort you put in which can help you stay top of mind and encourage others to engage with your content more often.
Sarah Walker, Principal Designer & CEO of Nuance Interior Design, does a great job of this on her company’s Instagram account.
Nuance Interior Design provides full-service, luxury interior design to busy professionals in the Seattle, Washington area. They specialize in designing biophilic, sustainable spaces for their clients. Their main goal is to elevate their clients’ quality of life and the functionality of their homes by providing custom design solutions. They also partner with architects and builders to design home remodels and new builds in the area.
The Nuance Interior Design Team works out of their interior design showroom which is a one-stop-shop for builders, architects, and their clients to find sustainable materials for their projects. It is the only luxury, sustainable showroom in Washington.
In addition to this, Sarah herself has been featured as an interior design expert in many different magazines. Most recently Luxe featured her Kitchen and Bathroom design work in an article about the showroom and the company’s approach to designing spaces.
In2It Digital supports Sarah by consistently posting to the company’s Instagram and LinkedIn platforms with content featuring current projects, the sustainable brands they work with, highlighting their values, and more.
In support of this, Sarah takes the time to engage with others on Instagram, whether it be replying to comments on one of her posts or seeking out others in the interior design industry and leaving a comment on their latest project.
Taking the time to engage from your business accounts can help you build relationships online which can lead to being seen by more people and opening yourself up for future opportunities. It can also help you stand out and even be seen as an expert in your field.
While posting consistently is an important piece to the puzzle, it’s just one piece to having a successful social media presence. Uplift your business further by engaging with your audience and those in your industry in a meaningful way. You may be surprised by the results.
