Social Media Management Richmond, VA

We Turn Your Average Social Media Following Into Sales With "Direct Response" Principles

Our goal is to provide social media management in Richmond, VA to small business owners who want their following to click, subscribe, and buy. Not just follow.

Is Your Social Media Reach Great? But It Isn't Resulting In Follows, Leads, And Sales?

This is Michael, the owner of the company and I want to say welcome to the social media management/marketing page of our website. Each page has this small message directly from me where I briefly go over what our company does differently than your standard web designer or digital marketing agency here in Richmond, VA.

The problem with so many social media marketers is they charge tons of cash and promote increased branding, reach, and followers. What’s missing is the conversion to leads and sales. As a business owner I feel this makes the thousands of dollars they charge unjustified. Our social media management and social media campaigns are structured differently. 

First, we take your social media presence and optimize it to match your website and other online profiles for SEO purposes so you gain reach organically. Second, each post or ad we create is optimized with hashtags for a target audience that would want to subscribe, become a lead, or buy, not just follow and forget. Finally, we assist with creating lead generators across your social media platforms that link to landing pages and sell your goods and services.

So if you’re looking to save time, try a new approach, and see if our social media management services will work for you, feel free to book a FREE 30-minute strategy session with me. If you would like more information enjoy the page.

The Problem With Exposure On Social Media Platforms

There’s a big problem small business owners face when it comes to social media management, and it doesn’t matter what platform you’re using. Thanks to wealthy influencers, gurus, and popular trends many social media managers believe branding, reach, and big followings will result in tons of economic return. This way of social media management can result in many of the feelings and problems listed below.

Do You Feel Like Social Media Management Has Been A Waste Of Time?

Have you been posting consistently using popular strategies modeled after big brands and influencers, but nothing is working? Your time creating content hasn’t made an economic return and you’re frustrated?

Do You Hate Seeing Your Ad Dollars Disappear With No Return?

Do you run ads and boost posts on Facebook, Instagram, or other platforms and you see people going to your website, but they still aren’t becoming leads? 

Are You Frustrated You Have A Good Following But No One Is Buying?

Have you gotten a bunch of followers thanks to your Instagram reels and other posts, but they aren’t engaging with you? Plenty of followers but it’s just not making you money?

Hiring A Social Media Manager Who Uses Direct Response Strategies Can Help Fix The Problems Listed Above

More Targeted Audiences

When you hire M.J. Web Design to manage and advertise your company on social media, we don’t just spit out hashtags for the sake of getting you more followers. We research hashtags that your target audience is searching for.

A Lead Generating Social Media Following

When you start obtaining a following from your target audience instead of “just anyone”. Those people are more likely to subscribe to your newsletters, sign up for free consultations, or purchase offers advertised to them.

Targeted Audience = More Growth

This is how social media is supposed to grow your company. Unfortunately, many social media agencies go for 10k+ followers and say YAY. But, what’s really better. 10,000 followers with 5 who purchase, or 200 followers with 50 that purchase?

Concentrate On Your Business

When you want to create posts and ads that are designed to “convert” followers into leads, it takes hours to research influencers, hashtags, what platform that will work best, and creating the content. Let us manage your social media so you can run the business.

Some Information On The Social Media Platforms We Use And What They Are Best Use For

Facebook

Building a Facebook page for your business is the first way you can start advertising in a cost-efficient way. It costs $0 dollars to start one and begin creating content that can organically reach a target audience. Many people see it as a dying social media platform, but you can’t deny it’s still full of potential customers your business can reach. Here are some statistics on why you should try Facebook.

  • Nearly 3 Billion Users
  • You can automate lead list building on the platform.
  • A/B testing subject lines, templates, and content.
  • Lower marketing expenses vs. Google Ads.
  • High levels of targeting.
  • Posts on Facebook are known to boost your SEO, spy on competitors, and set up paid events.

Instagram

Instagram is king in our book. But, it has been changing recently. It’s gone from image posts to stories, and no reels and live being the most shared content on the platform. Where Facebook is great for more long-form content, Instagram reaches your target audience the best when you use short videos mixed with other informative posts. The following are some reasons why Instagram is best for your local business.

  • Your target audience publishes tons of content, making it easier to discover where they might be.
  • More than 600 million people use it to search for goods and services.
  • Short videos help you build relationships with your target audience.
  • You can drive a lot of website traffic and boost your SEO.
  • After growing a following, you can target them with ads to purchase.
The official icon for LinkedIn. LinkedIn is the best social media platform for business to business advertising.

LinkedIn

There is no better social media platform for networking between businesses. It’s the official social media network for professionals who want to hire employees, form partnerships, and sell services to other businesses. Believe it or not, LinkedIn ads cost more than other social media networks, but data shows LinkedIn ads are 500% more likely to convert quality leads when compared to Facebook.

  • LinkedIn allows you to target job positions so you can go straight to the person who will purchase your services.
  • Your ads can contain lead forms to capture information.
  • Has 1/4 of the users as Facebook, but the users are professionals and business leaders who are more likely to convert.
  • Less complicated analytics which can make deciphering data easier, but harder to adjust for improvement.

Twitter

Twitter has been in the news a lot this year. It’s been purchased by Elon Musk who is making major changes to the platform and the business as a whole. Twitter is best for businesses that share news, blogs, and content writers. Many of the local businesses in RVA are magazines and other publications that are very active on Twitter. But, here are some reasons why Twitter might benefit your business.

  • Twitter has a 3% increase in ad engagement in 2021, and their cost per engagement has decreased by 25%.
  • The top country for Twitter users is the United States.
  • 1 in 5 American adults uses Twitter.
  • 80% of Twitter users are using it on a mobile device.
  • 56.2% of Twitter users are men vs. women.
  • Half of Twitter users have an average household income of over $75,000.

YouTube

As a small business owner, it’s vital you set up an automated system for lead generation, and YouTube is probably the best at that. YouTube is a very effective and cost-effective way to get your word out. One example is the company ModCloth. One YouTube campaign resulted in 4,000 subscribers and 1 million YouTube views. This massively increased sales and only 1/9th the average cost of their other advertising campaigns.

  • YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine behind Google.
  • 1 Billion people visit YouTube each month.
  • Advertising on YouTube also gets you found on Google.
  • 65% of people are visual learners and will react more to YouTube videos and ads.
  • Your content stays out there and never dies. One video can cover a podcast, infographic, presentation, or webinar that takes 4 different posts on other platforms.
  • You can make extra money from the platform.

TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest, Reddit, And Others

There are tons of social media platforms and it can get confusing trying to figure out which one will work best for growing your business. One of the biggest mistakes business owners make is either wasting time trying to create content for each one or recycling the same content on each one with no results. That’s why we recommend you research your target audience and market so you can figure out which one will be the best for you. But here are a few more stats on the other social media platforms.

  • TikTok users are mostly between the ages of 10 – 29.
  • The rise of Instagram stories has hindered Snapchat’s growth, although 69% of teenagers say they are still using it.
  • Pinterest users are 7x more likely to purchase products they’ve pinned.
  • Reddit is full of subreddits great for engaging with members and sharing value.

Why We Help Business Owners With Their Social Media

At M.J. Web Design we know you’re the kind of person who wants to be successful. You want your business to have a social media presence that provides you with time and provides a stable but growing list of clients. 

In order to be that way, you need a professionally created social media strategy and social media ad campaign so your startup or small business grows and continues to increase profits.

The problem is most business owners aren’t professional marketers, and creating your own social media content can cause frustration or confusion about the direction to take.

We believe it’s terrible new (or existing) small business owners should ever feel that way because everyone deserves success. 

We understand how those feelings hurt. We were starting once and had to do the exact same thing! But we researched our markets, put in the hours, and are now successful.

Here’s how it works: just give us a call, get a FREE meeting, we’ll design a rough draft, then put it in action. That way you can stop feeling frustrated or confused about the growth and direction of your business.

Start feeling relaxed, free, and proud of your business growth:)
