Social media is a powerful tool for businesses to connect with customers and promote their products. However, the key to successful sales on social media is to avoid being too "salesy." Here are some tips for how to sell products on social media without coming across as pushy:

1. Build relationships: The first step in selling products on social media is to build relationships with your followers. This can be done by regularly posting engaging content, responding to comments and messages, and sharing valuable information. By building trust with your followers, they will be more likely to consider purchasing from you.
2. Use storytelling: Instead of simply listing the features of your product, use storytelling to show how it can solve a problem or make a difference in the lives of your customers. This can help to create an emotional connection with your audience and make them more likely to buy.
3. Use visuals: Visuals are a powerful way to grab the attention of your followers and showcase your products. Use high-quality images and videos to showcase your products in action and give customers a sense of what they can expect.
4. Offer value: Instead of focusing solely on making a sale, focus on providing value to your customers. This can include offering free resources or exclusive deals to your followers. By doing this, you will be building trust and loyalty with your customers, which will lead to more sales in the long run.
5. Use social proof: Share customer testimonials, reviews, or other forms of social proof to build trust and credibility. This is a great way to showcase the value of your product and the satisfaction of your customers.
6. Be authentic: Lastly, be authentic and true to yourself. People can sense when someone is not genuine, and it will turn them off. So, be honest, open and keep things real.
   
   

By following these tips, you can effectively sell products on social media without coming across as pushy. Remember that building relationships and providing value are key to successful sales on social media!

​2021 was a really fun year at #glowgetternation. Both Christina and I had reels that hit 7 million and 1 million views respectively. Christina actually had multiple reels go viral and what was interesting about this was every video we had that went viral was very unique and at least 2 of them we considered to be our worst pieces of content.

Christina here! With almost 9 years working in graphic design, "classically trained", as I like to say, in the art of Adobe programs, photoshop, indesign & illustrator, I've been able to create high quality graphics for my business over the course of the years. The great thing about technology now a days is that people are creating tools and apps that make is so much more efficient for ANYONE to use and make their own graphics. Now, we all can't be designers with the eyes for great quality graphics (I've seen some TERRIBLE graphics out there for marketing, unfortunately) but I can guide you to the best tools and practices for creating and using graphics for your business.

We've all seen the posts on Facebook... "share this to win", "which dress should I wear, A, B, C or D?" with an image of the choices, "Like this post if you love cake!". If I don't click it does that mean I don't like cake? This is known as "engagement bait". They are meant to boost posts algorithms higher so that more people will see it in their newsfeed, obtaining a higher "reach". Facebook announced yesterday (Dec, 18 2017) that, starting this week, they will begin demoting individual posts from people and pages that use engagement bait. This means that anyone using "engagement bait" will be penalized in Facebook's algorithms which determines which posts show up in the news feed.
