Social Media Hints and Tricks!
A great way to entice new followers and get your business in front of new eyes is to:
Tag other brands in your posts – for example, if you’re posting a picture of your work, you could tag the companies you bought the materials from. Then, they might share your post too!
Use relevant hashtags to get your business in front of others searching for those hashtags or similar ones. For example, if you share a before and after photo of a bathroom transformation you’ve worked on, tag #bathroominspo. If you need help finding relevant hashtags, you can use display purposes or another free hashtag-sourcing tool.
Use geotargeting and add your location so others can see your work areas and find your posts more easily.
Create engaging posts. Some social media platforms have features that allow your followers to engage with you quickly. Instagram Stories has many options for interactive stickers, such as polls, ask a question and quiz features, for example.
Put links to your social media profiles onto your business card, email signature, posters, van branding, and other social media profiles.
Ask your customers to share photos of your work on their social media profiles and tag you.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
