Introducing The Low-Cost SMM (Social Media Marketing) Tools For Local Businesses

in #blockchain6 years ago

Which is your favourite website to shop online? I guess the majority of us would like to cast our votes for Amazon.com, the world’s #1 online retailer not only in the US but also in UK, Canada, Australia and many countries in the Asian subcontinent. We cannot deny the fact that Amazon provides a lot of advantages like fast shipping, free returns and more. But, it has dramatically reduced the popularity of local businesses which are vital for the improvement of economic growth of any developing country.

Do you know why the local businesses are not able to compete with the multinational retailers? Because of their limited budget for marketing & advertising. Yes. The small-scale businesses cannot spend a lot of money to advertise their business on social media networks like Facebook, Twitter etc. Besides social media, the local businesses are not able to quickly adapt to the latest digital technologies like the chain of supermarkets. That’s why they are not able to sustain their existing customers which results in a considerable loss of the profit margin for them.

Traditional marketing techniques have become obsolete. The new Inbound Marketing strategy involves four steps namely: Attract, Convert, Close and Retain. The first step to attract customers is to create a nice looking profile for the business on all the social media networks. And, presence on social media has become mandatory for any business to thrive in this competitive world because more than 60% of the online users say that they are more interested in buying a product/service if it is recommended in their social circle. That’s why more than 70% of B2C (Business to Consumer) based businesses can acquire customers through the social networks.

Using the existing marketing tools is not feasible for the local businesses because of its high cost. FlipNpik provides a low cost & blockchain based solution so that the local businesses can compete with the chain of supermarkets effectively. What is FlipNpik? It is a 360-degree collaborative social media which is being developed mainly for the local businesses to promote their brand and acquire more customers.
