Considering how well rooted social media is in our lives, we don’t think we need to justify why you need to focus on it. These stats show a clear picture how social media marketing for startups can surely help you increase your sales and reach.
Your social media profiles are often the first impression of your brand. Every social media marketing campaign, big or small, needs an effective strategy to make a strong first impression, both online and offline. Digital media is growing and influencing people constantly, and social media marketing dominates a major part of it. Keeping up with the growing influence of trending social media platforms on people, creating a strategy to keep customers engaged, and reaching new audiences is hard, but not impossible. Socinova can help you in this. We believe that social media content creates a meaningful impact on digital communities to help build an online presence for a brand. Your startup needs to focus on social media branding, just as much as your customer service or sales.
How can social media help your startup grow?
Social media isn’t a direct advertising channel, but rather a community. It can help you startup build a community around your product, reach more audiences or conduct viral campaigns that ultimately grow your bottom line.
Direct communication
Brand awareness
Brand awareness is as important as good communication because without awareness, you can’t sell anything. Social media can be an excellent medium for startups to reach new audiences and grow their brand awareness. For example, a juice company can easily launch a new line of products in 10 international markets with a quick lift to their ad recall and add to cart numbers. As per a recent survey, 44% of local businesses consider social media for increasing their brand awareness. Social media networks are literally the hotspots for marketing your startup and reach millions of new people.
High traffic at a low price
Many times, startups have a resource crunch. So, it’s important to spend your budget wisely while planning your marketing strategy. While most media can cost heftily, social media marketing fits the bill in tactful promotions, especially with Socinova. It’s highly cost-effective too. If planned correctly, social media can bring you a higher return on your investment. It will attract the right audience that most likely converts into customers. Always remember to create and include striking visual content, as it will get the users’ attention quickly.
Though there are so many benefits of social media marketing for your startup, these benefits pretty much sum up how important social media can be.

Which social media channels should your startup invest in?
Social media marketing is certainly not an easy investment, but it should not burn a big hole in your marketing budget as well. If you find hiring an in-house social media marketing team expensive, you can consider outsourcing your marketing to an agency like Socinova, which provides affordable social media marketing services for startups.
Since so many social media channels are available for marketing activities, it might get difficult for your startups to choose the ones that deserve your most attention. Contrary to popular belief, your startup does not need market itself on every social media platform available. In fact, having a presence on multiple social media channels can sometimes be more harmful than beneficial. The best way to generate maximum traction is to focus on the channels that cater to your target audience. Startups should then actively post organic content and publish social media advertisements on such platforms.
The first thing your startup needs to find out is which social media channel your audience is using the most. It will be a waste of time if you focus on a channel your audience doesn’t use. The next step is finding the other channels your startup can work great with. For example, visually-driven niches commonly use Instagram and Pinterest while B2B brands usually use LinkedIn.
If you’re unsure about which social media platforms to use, there’s no harm in using various social media channels in the initial months to decide on the right channels once you experience good results.
