Do you want to promote your business but don't have much free time? Still nobody knows you and you debate between promoting yourself more and putting together the solutions for your clients to choose you? Do you already have some clients and feel that you dedicate yourself to them or get new ones, but both are impossible?
Unfortunately, if you do not continue promoting your business and as I always say by turning the wheel, you will find that you will not get new customers. It's that simple.
How to get out of this vicious circle then? How to get more free time to promote yourself or promote yourself in less time?
3 tips to promote your business online without investing much time
Tip # 1: Spend 30 minutes a day on social media
How? Don't you need at least 3 or 4 hours on social media for it to work? Well, not the opposite. My strategy (and I say "my" because it is the one I use in addition to the one I recommend to my clients) will not take you any longer.
What you need to do is put together a publication calendar once a month. Define what you will post, where (on what networks, in which groups) and when (at what time or how often). For example I publish on facebook daily but on linkedin only 1 or 2 times a week.
Later, even when you make the publications manually (there is software that does it automatically), you can take 15 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes in the afternoon to make your publication, answer the comments that have come to you from your community and watch a little what other people are doing in the groups to which you belong, in order to also share and comment on their publications.
Tip # 2: Spend one hour a week to write for a magazine or online community
First of all you have to choose which magazine or online community is where you will share what you have to offer. There are many and very good, but the most important thing for you is that the one you choose is your ideal client. If not, you will be showing yourself, promoting and working in a community where you have no chance of having prospects because your ideal client is not there.
Tip # 3: Use an hour a week to explore a partnership with a colleague
This is a fantastic opportunity and if you schedule every week to look for someone different to make alliances, you will see how quickly you promote yourself, you grow your community and you also earn friends from your business.
The most important thing here is that you investigate who that person is: what he offers to his market (which, essential, has to be your own market, but again you will be promoting yourself in vain) and how you could complement this person and how this person can complement your business.
Then you can contact him / her to offer collaboration. Maybe they will exchange gifts, maybe they will have a talk or a seminar together; the ideas are endless. The important thing is that both are on the same frequency.
I have not made many alliances in my business but with those who have made them, it has always been very good and very natural for me, because they are people that I perceive to be on the same page as me. This is important. In addition, their services or products are complementary to mine with which we all earn.
