Think Twitter is for the Birds? Think again.

As a busy Shop Owner, there are so many things to think about. Are the customers satisfied? Are my bays full? Is my staff doing the best they can do? The list is endless. Interacting with Twitter too is likely to be very low on your list. However, take a look at some interesting facts and stats (Visual-ly, April 2015):

• 74% of people who follow small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) follow to get updates on future products.
• 47% of people who follow brands are more likely to visit the company’s website.
• 84% of people who follow and interact with SMEs (subject-matter experts) mention an SMB to share a positive experience.
• 85% of users feels more connected to an SMB after following them.

Additionally, out of 53% of consumers who said they use Twitter to recommend companies or products, 48% bought that product or service, according to Sprout Social.

According to Get Satisfaction and Column Five Media, 43.5% followed a business’ Twitter feed for special offers and discounts.

These statistics confirm the importance of a social media presence at your auto repair business. Take advantage of this mindset by consistently offering specials on your Facebook, Google and Twitter pages!
