One of the few words I learned in my science class back in high school is the word Catalyst. Although I had a slow growth interest in Chemistry as a subject, our laboratory exercises gave shape to my knowledge bank today. If I put the words out clearly, a Catalyst is a chemical ingredient that speeds up the process of a chemical reaction or process without distorting the structure.
Fast forward to my new knowledge base in modern time, the word Catalyst has found more use in our daily lives than being colloquial.
Going by the aforestated, if we are to run a qualitative analysis on businesses in a new age laboratory, our catalyst would certainly be social media.
In today’s article, I will be beaming light on how your business can immensely benefit from a catalyst as social media.
What is social media?
Social media is a virtual platform that embraces the sharing and exchanging of information in a range of file types without any possible hinge or protocol. While the platforms could differ, the purpose remains the dissemination of information through the internet.
Perhaps social media is not for everyone, you may say, but everyone is not a business entity. According to numbers, which we know don’t lie, there are currently over 4.3 billion active social media users worldwide... worldwide!
Imagine the chances of getting heard down to the other side of the globe, imagine having your brand being considered from a pool of options, imagine having a business relationship with little or no effort, only if you seek to inculcate a catalyst, the social media.
Hard truth is, if you aren't infusing social media into your digital marketing plan, you are missing an efficient opportunity to reach almost half of the world's population.

How social media can influence your business
1. DIGITAL MARKETING
If there is a line I would use often in this topic, perhaps it would be that “the world is changing” and the conventional mode of doing marketing has been outshined by the new cool. Leveraging the numbers of active online users, digital marketing assists in conveying your message via ads on platforms. We know you have the content and service, how about using another platform.
2. INCREASE TRAFFIC
If you are successful in social media and rise in search rankings, traffic to your website will certainly grow. Furthermore, social networks enable you to reach out to your target audience. such that you can have the audiences filtered based on their demographics, and interests.
3. INCREASE VISIBILITY
Going by search engines like Google, with good content and the use of SEO [Search Engine Optimization] techniques, you have a greater chance of increase in search results which implies that you have a flux of people funnel to your business page or address. This does more than brand visibility or awareness but also builds an interest in the hearts of the viewers which trickles to sales/services.
4. INFORMATION DISSEMINATION
Social media provide rapid two-way communication, which helps not only the user but also the organization by allowing critical news and messages to be communicated timely.
Although each social media has its own set of advantages and you may need to consider your content, the audience, and the response you intend before doing a pick on the platform for a targeted result.
5. CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
Users on social media not only post images, memes, and news, but they also express their thoughts. It would be easy to acquire evaluations from your consumers if your company is on social media. Feedbacks received can strongly serve as a tool for boosting your merits and appealing trust to your audience and overall to strengthen the company's image.
6. IMPRESS POTENTIAL CLIENTS
Quite similar to the previous points, all the contacts, networking, and good feedback received have the potential to wow and build trust in future clients who look up the products and services you provide online.
It is therefore critical to intentionally keep a good reputation as well as to react to questions swiftly and efficiently on your chatbot or other handles. If you succeed, you will be able to impress them and persuade them to a business relationship.
7. JOB SEARCH
The world is changing, and you can easily disseminate job offers or scout for the ideal team player in your chosen field. LinkedIn is a useful tool for this.
Take advantage of the catalyst, use social media for your business advantage.
