    1. Ask the user

    While most marketers prefer to do it at the end (when they’re literally out of ideas), I do it as the first thing in my social marketing strategy. Ask your customers what kind of content they prefer to see on your social pages, and then share the same.

    2. Ask user opinions about something

    If you are planning to launch a new product/service or even a marketing campaign, feel free to ask your social followers for help. This will make them feel a part of the company.

    Inspiring or motivational quotes with a hint of your business/product idea always work the magic.
