The key to operating a successful social media account is to be intentional with everything.
We all want to grow our social audience, with not just a general audience but a targeted audience.
Because what’s the point in operating a coffee roaster’s social media account and garnering followers who don’t even like coffee?
As professionals, we can use many social media tactics to maximize our engagement and build our list of followers who support our mission and business.
Here are the top four tips we’ve compiled to build an audience that will strengthen your engagement and lead to a sale or new client.
Utilize Tailored Hashtags
Hashtags are so important on all social media platforms these days…yes, even on Facebook.
If you want to grow a niche audience, one of the easiest ways to do so is to use a handful of targeted hashtags in your captions.
When you use those top hashtags, your content will be included in a feed featuring only coffee content where coffee enthusiasts will be skimming through.
Follow Similar Accounts
Often, people are nervous about following similar social media accounts, but this is where you can grow your network and garner new ideas.
Maybe the account isn’t exactly a competitor, but successful niche social media accounts are usually followed by people interested in that product, mission, or organization type.
We tend to underestimate how often people follow the followers of their favorite social media accounts, so be intentional about who you follow and aim only to follow accounts similar to your brand.
Engage with Other Accounts
Spreading a little love in the form of a like and commenting on accounts you follow will be appreciated. The followers on the accounts you engage with will take notice of your interactions and likely click on your account to see what it’s all about.
Engaging in a meaningful way with other accounts is a great way to build genuine connections, garnering more followers who support your brand.
Optimize Social Media Bio and Handle
Utilizing a transparent social media handle that is connected to your business and services is so important on social media. Being as descriptive and concise as possible with your handle could help you build your desired targeted audience.
If a person comes across your handle and it’s descriptive of your niche, the social media user will likely snoop around on your page and possibly give you a follow.
When it comes to the bio on the social media accounts you manage, it’s imperative to be as descriptive as possible in a concise way, never leaving new visitors to your accounts confused about the services your brand offers.
Our team at TOC PR is confident that by implementing some of these tactics into your social media strategy, you will begin to build a targeted audience for your brand in no time.

Niche Audience
If you want to grow a niche audience, one of the easiest ways to do so is to use a handful of targeted hashtags in your captions.
Using the coffee roasters example again, search the most popular coffee-related hashtags in your search bar and use the top five, but only if the hashtags make sense to the content you are posting. Remember, be intentional.
When you use those top hashtags, your content will be included in a feed featuring only coffee content where coffee enthusiasts will be skimming through.
