Curious on your guys opinions are on Offers (for example 50% off on website) when someone follows you.
I get alot of DM’s on things like “heres this cupon for following us.” It just seems fake, and gives the message of “we dont give a rats @$$ about you just that you buy something.”
Was curious of this method vs Posting a Picture of the Coupon or doing it as a Moment.
I am talking about doing this as a business account and getting people to come to your website or place of business.
Will do. In Gary Vaynerchuks book he does not recommend a DM at all for any selling purposes. Says its a “private place” for people and wouldn’t be taken well.
For example if I’m trying to sell Chihuahua shirts, I send a DM to a Chihuahua owner telling him that I want to buy a Chihuahua shirt and I don’t know which one looks better ( and give him the link to my store ), he might end up buying one for himself as well.
DMs have been my gold mine… I actually might hire someone to do direct sales for me soon. I can easily make $100 in one day (dming ppl) but I recently started using other techniques making me +1k a week. My biggest tip is being genuine not look like spam even tho it is spam. You would be surprised how some people appreciate you reached out to them because not a lot of people do and when you have MP automating for you then you save time… In my opinion If you are NOT getting people blocking you rejecting you or saying rude stuff then you are not a good marketer. You are not making serious money online. Gary Vee is great but the guy started very early he grew a legit organic following. I don’t have patience like him I need to grow fast.
I have been doing it for half year now so what I learned is Drop the bomb right away. Striking casual conversation can bring unwanted people / waste time. It takes me 2-3 copy & paste messages to close the sale. Your profile / posts / content should be the relationship / trust builder to them. If someone is truly interested in your service / product they will take action. SO make sure you target the right people.
