Facebook / WhatsApp group
Facebook and WhatsApp groups have similar functions. Identify which groups your dream customers participate in and join some of these groups. Who knows, you might find some ideal customers there. After starting my Journal business, I started searching on Facebook for Journaling groups I could join and learn from. I got the opportunity to share my work in there and through that I made some sales and even got to teach others.
Facebook Influencer Pages
Do you have any Facebook influencers who align with the products or services you sell. Once in a while engage on their posts to get some visibility on business. Especially when they discuss topics related to what you sell or do.
Online Forums
These are online discussion sites where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages. Through these forums you are able to learn about the problems people are facing, some of their needs and different trends that can help you position your business well.
