Social Media services- Are they worth it?

13 replies
Hello,
I am looking to get more facebook fans and twitter followers to promote a restaurant i just opened. Are these websites worth the money or am i better off just finding real people? A lot of these sites promise 100% real fans but i have a hard time believing that. I am looking for any input i can get from people who have actually used these services.
Thanks
charlie

    Good question.. I would recommend using odesk.com and out source the work. You can pay people as little as $2.00 per hour and they will do all the work for you. There are ratings for each person so you know that you are hiring a good worker.. you prepay the account of pay them based on the work they do.

    Per hour or per assignment

    I spend $200.00 per week trough them and it saves me $800.00- $1000.00 per month. You can out source just about any job and $2.00 per hour in their country helps them make a great living!

    Even if the fans are real they are not targeted to your niche/zone/etc.. you need targeted fans/followers.. you can focus on youtube too..

      So where do you go to find targeted fans/followers? I have about 50 fans and 80 followers right now, just out of people that i know and my employees but i am looking to expand beyond that, and it is important that i get real people as opposed to a bunch of bots.

    Have you thought of social media dashboards? Like Twitter scheduler? I get a lot of real followers just from that.

    I've used one of the fiverr gig in the past of 2000fans in $5. I think they were bots.

    Try to join resturant Fb groups and contribute and you can naturally create a following.. if you look for gary vaynerchuk (The wine library ) guy's videos on you tube you will get some great ideas, also the best way is to treat you current customers like gold and offer them so much extra that they bring in actual customers and fb fans too..

    I would stick with getting real followers and fans on Facebook. Even though your business may look popular with all of your fake Twitter followers and FB fans... it doesn't guarantee that people will decide to visit your restaurant.

    And if they do visit your restaurant, your food and service will have to be superb to get them to come back to you. I think this aspect of your business is more important than fake followers and FB fans.

    Look, I run a website that sells services to increase twitter followers, facebook fans, youtube views and Google Plus likes. I am going to be entirely honest with you why my customers buy from me.

    From a survey I issued, the data shows that my customers believe that the number of social media followers directly impacts the perceived quality of a service. So more fans/followers means its a stronger vote of confidence. Minimal followers is like issuing a statement that your brand is weak to new followers.

    I would be happy to discuss this topic in more depth if you would like to PM me. I specialized in Facebook fan pages and Facebook advertising before I started running my website.
