Let me first ADMIT that I also need to get better at being consistent with doing this myself. But here’s the perspective you need to have (SAVE this post for future reference) 👇🏾...
Just like retail managers greet people who walk into their storefront, you should be greeting your new followers. You can do this by sending a simple DM.
Why? Because people appreciate being acknowledged, and greeting your new followers tells them that you notice them, and they do matter to you. This small gesture leaves an impact that increases the likelihood of them staying in your community.
Also, rather than just simply saying “Thanks for the follow!”, it’s not a bad idea to do any of the following:
🔸 Compliment them on their content
🔸 Engage with some of their content
🔸 Ask them to turn their post notifications on
🔸 Ask them what made them decide to follow you
🔸 If you sell products/services, give them a small offer (“New follower discount”).
At the end of the day, people buy from and support people that they know, like, and trust, so you want to build rapport with your new followers as quickly as possible. Making connections early puts you in better position to monetize later.
Let me know in the comments if this was helpful 👍🏾.
