Remember, copying is the highest form of flattery! Chances are that content that works for them will work for you. Of course, keep it personal, as in SOCIAL. Here are some examples of content that we think works:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Fun Contests \u2013 Send a picture of your favorite car<\/li>\n
- Local Events \u2013 Especially if you are participating or sponsoring<\/li>\n
- Education \u2013 Ladies Night at the shop<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
3. Best Practices. Check out local mechanic shops in your area to get ideas. If they have a lot of followers, check out what types of postings their customers respond to and what type of content they post in general. This can be a great start to get ideas to create your own content.<\/p>\n
Again, you never have to write a single thing \u2013 unless you’re giving back to the community or advertising specialty training \u2013 post that. Humour is popular, but steer clear of political or religious topics; you don’t want to ostracize any customers. This should be enough information to help you get started, and if not, contact your Marketing Experts at MNG for help. As mentioned, “Like” our page \u2013 we’re constantly posting, so it will be easy to start sharing our content and get a jump start!<\/p>\n
