We love using Facebook and Instagram to showcase our kitchen renovations to drive awareness and generate leads.

I agree Google does it for me, but when you look at Donald Trump, he tweets to get his direct message out there and in doing so beats and bypasses the media everytime.

We find a lot of our work is through word of mouth and referral and Google search whilst our followers enjoy the interaction on the social platforms being Instagram and Facebook as our most interactive platforms :-)

Speaking as a client, not a business owner, I use word of mouth if I can, or else Google - and even with word of mouth I check out the company's website. So I think an informative, attractive website which shows the range of your work is worth the investment.

Most of the work we receive is either word of mouth or Google search. Its rare other platforms have offered any genuine leads.

Instagram seems to work best for MY BUILD - the most comprehensive Building and Renovation Organisation App. Check it out for yourself #MYBUILDAPP or go to the web site www.mybuildapp.com.au

95% of the work I receive is through word of mouth from other professionals whom I've worked with extensively (project managers, builders, designers, facility managers), and generally becomes repeat business. I view instagram is a mood board illustrating the way I work & my personality.

Also, don't underestimate the good advice that you professionals give to people's posts on this site. I know that there have been a few professionals on here that I would not otherwise have known about or considered for future renos, if I hadn't seen the consistently good advice that they give on Houzz.....there are several but Dr Retro always comes to mind. (unfortunately i have bought a house now that is more log cabin look now and I am trying to change it to a industrial-modern farmhouse-modern ranchstyle-more contemporary style...(just not colonial country, ...just simplicity...which is what appeals to me in the modern midcentury look....)..sometimes the house dictates the style.....I digress as usual...

Dr Retro is excellent and works with midcentury which I love, give him a call

My favourite social platform is the one that runs the length of the bar . . . . . . . . . .

That is right, Pozzi Bros! Once your video gets recommended you get a lot of traffic, new clients/followers, and of course, likes and comments on your posts. I guess gaining popularity is what every business needs on social media to increase its sales. Yes, not all of the followers will buy your goods, but they will attract people who have money and can afford and want to buy your stuff, this is the most important thing. Btw nowadays you can buy tiktok likes and pay with PayPal, which will cost you a little but will help your account progress and develop even if you just started your channel.

It seems to me that Instagram and TikTok are the most influential social networks that promote your business.

I think Facebook, Instagram and TikTok are the most useful for any business. Quality content on social media really allows you to promote the products and services of any business. We live in a world where almost everyone is an active Internet user. We all have a social media page where we spend at least two hours every day. That is why companies use social networks as one of their main promotional tools. It is very important to use the tools that will bring the best results. If you actively promote your business on Facebook, I recommend you use https://famoid.com/buy-facebook-likes/ to increase the number of likes on your posts. By using effective promotion tools, you get the best results.

I’ve tried managing profiles across different platforms, but honestly, nothing beats the reliability of Google search for gaining actual clients. Social media brings good engagement, but I feel it’s more about visibility than driving serious leads. Most of the time, clients who are ready to pay will find my website through search, especially when I focus on optimizing my content for relevant queries.

Speaking of handling online content, converting video formats to share across platforms can also be a hassle. That’s where tools like this M2TS converter come in handy. They make it easier to customize and share videos without losing quality. For more details check https://www.movavi.com/video-converter/m2ts-converter.html

I get a lot more real local leads through Facebook than Instagram or Pinterest. Facebook groups especially seem to have more people actually looking for recommendations or services. Instagram and Pinterest are good for sharing project photos and getting likes, but the followers there don’t usually turn into clients for me. Having a strong Google presence is definitely key as well, since that's how a lot of people first land on my website.

If you ever want to boost visibility on social and search at the same time, I worked with a digital marketing agency 1on1, and they really helped me figure out which channels fit my business best.

LinkedIn has been the most effective platform for my business because it allows for direct networking with other professionals and decision-makers. Sharing educational content about business compliance or entity management has consistently helped build trust and authority with potential clients. If you are looking for professional help to keep your business in good standing, Incorp provides excellent registered agent and compliance services that simplify the backend work. It is much easier to focus on driving new leads when you know your legal requirements are being handled by experts.
