Real time social media engagement with clients resulted in major accounts with millions of followers RT’ing our post.
Helped with credibility, increased followers, and helped get more clients of
similar caliber
![Page 45: How to Start an Ice Pop Business](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022021422/588960ed1a28abef658b679f/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
By posting our social media handles all over our store, business cards, carts etc
over just telling them to visit our website. This helped increase social media
engagement, let customers guide the conversation with their experience as well
as become brand champions for us.

A kickass social media campaign
does not replace a horrible product. Perfect the product and social media should further amplfy your word of
mouth from clients and customers

Fun engagement with MC Hammer from a conference I was recently at where MC Hammer
was the keynote and I posted a video on instagram of a women dancing to his music before he hit the
stage.
Social Media should be FUN!

With such small burst of engagement. (140 characters or less) It’s much easier to get past the gatekeepers on social media and get the attention of CEO’s, Key Decision Makers and McHammer :)
