Do you run a small business but are not sure how to promote it? You’ve come to the right place. As a business owner, you have so much on your plate. From logistics to sales, running a tight ship can be a tedious task.
Because you’re so caught up in running your operations, understandably, you might not have enough time for marketing. But marketing is a major part of owning a business. You can have the best products and the most impeccable services, but if you can’t convince other people to try them out, you’re not going to see a profit.
PosterMyWall aims to make the marketing process a breeze for you. If you want to promote your business effortlessly, check it out. The site has hundreds of thousands of templates for social media, flyers, posters, digital signage, and more. All you have to do is customize a template you like and share it instantly.
In this blog post, we’ll familiarize you with all the different PosterMyWall tools and how you can take advantage of them to grow your reach both online and offline. And if you’d like a quick introduction to PosterMyWall, check out this video.
Let’s get started!
1. Browse through the different templates on the site
The first step is to browse through your options. Since there are so many templates to choose from, you should narrow down your search by typing in the keywords you want in the search bar. For instance, if you run a bakery and need to create a menu, just search for “bakery menu” and you’ll get tons of templates.
A good approach to picking out templates is to make a list of the kinds of templates you need. This will give you a better idea of what you’re looking for. For instance, are you looking for content for Instagram? Email? Digital signage?
Secondly, decide how many different pieces of content you need for each platform. For instance, perhaps you want four graphics for social media and one for email.
Streamlining your template search process in this way will help you understand what you need. It will also prevent you from getting overwhelmed by all the different options and will help you focus on your marketing goals.
2. Create your designs
Once you’ve picked out your templates, it’s time to start customizing them and giving them your own touch. You can add your own branding by changing the colors and adding your logo. You can make your promotion aesthetically pleasing with stickers, emojis, and images. You can even turn your static image into a video or a slideshow to get more engagement online.
All of this is made possible through the PosterMyWall editor, which is built to be incredibly user friendly and intuitive. In the editor, you can add whatever customizations you want, no matter how big or small, and you can do it all in a matter of minutes.
Once you’re happy with your customized design, all you have to do is click on “Download” to save it in whatever format you need.
3. Share content on your social media
When it comes to social media marketing, PosterMyWall can do it all for you, from start to finish. Once you’ve created your design, you can share it to your Instagram business page, Facebook group or business page, or Twitter directly through PosterMyWall.
All you have to do is click on “Publish” in the editor and then choose the “Social Media” option. From here, it’s just a few simple steps towards sharing your design. Make sure to add a fun, engaging caption with emojis. The uploaded design will be high quality and absolutely amazing.
Social media expert Jade Steckly believes that creating your own designs for social media is a great way to gain exposure for your business because it gives you more creative control and allows you to set your own schedule, all while saving you a ton of money.
