How to Turn Your Fans and Followers into Paying Customers

Topic Started By: aananahum       Created: Apr 17th, 2020, 2:40 pm


If you have a substantial following but have no idea how to convert them into a paying customer, then this short post will give you actionable tips that you can start to do immediately.

 

Here is how you can turn your followers into paying customers:

  1. Understand your audience.

This may seem obvious, but a lot of people ignore this one.

Understanding your audience is one of the fundamental steps you need to take if you want to make any sort of conversions.

You must already have a general idea about who your audience is. What kind of people interact with your content? Learn everything there is about your audience. Best thing to do for gaining general idea about your website niche is to sign up for live chat app for website and interact with your visitors to gain better understanding of their challenges and hidden opportunities in them for you.

Use analytics to make data-driven decisions. Eliminate the guesswork from your decision-making process by using tools to get concrete answers and insights into your audience.

Another thing that you can do is to study some of your competitor’s audiences, as they most likely share some characteristics with your audience.

 

  1. Provide your followers as much value as you can (for absolutely free!).

To actually gain an audience in the first place, you’re going to have to differentiate yourself from your competition.

One of the absolute best ways to do that is to provide value to your audience. But what does that really mean?

Providing value to your audience means that you genuinely appreciate the time your audience takes out of their busy schedule to see and interact with your content. And as a way to honor and acknowledge their actions, you provide them with information or entertainment that they would enjoy and benefit from.

But how can you provide value?

Well, if you're a blogger, you can provide in-depth articles that cover a popular topic in your niche from top to bottom. Try to deliver as much value as you can, but make it short enough for your audience to benefit the most.

If you’re an Instagram influencer, one thing you can do is provide tips on how to take perfect pictures. Another thing you could do is to tell your audience in a story exactly how you take your pictures for Instagram.

When your followers see all the great content and help that you’re putting out for free, they will be inclined to learn all that you have to offer, even if it’s at a financial cost.

 

  1. Increase engagement with your followers.

To increase the number of followers who convert to paying customers, you're going to have to build a valuable and meaningful relationship with them.

The best way to increase engagement with your audience is to create communication mediums.

Your followers leave comments on your posts. Make sure to reply to every single one of them. While it may seem impossible if you have a significant following, you should still do as much as you can.

If you have a YouTube channel and have just published a video, make sure to stick around for a while and answer the first couple of people who comment on your videos.

Try to answer as many questions as you can and genuinely be helpful to your audience.

If someone is negative, try not to pay too much attention to it. In most cases, the trolls are significantly outnumbered by your positive, encouraging audience.

Also, another thing you can do about your engagement is to be proactive and ask your audience for their opinions and advice. You can learn as much from your audience as they can from you, if not more.

 

  1. Share relevant, high-quality content.

You might be wondering what sharing quality content has to do with getting customers. And rightly so.

Well, when you share content that you’ve found to be valuable, you’re letting your audience know that you are personally sharing content that either you have found helpful or you hope your audience will find important.

Sharing valuable content from other people shows that you are an active member of your industry. You not only get to improve your skillset, but you also get branding points.

While sharing authoritative content from other sources, and adding in little insights of your own, you’re establishing a personal brand.

Building a personal brand is important if you want to convert followers into customers. This will later help your audience associate your products/services with your personal brand.

Think about it. Would you buy from someone who has a strong personal brand, or from someone who you’ve just heard about the first time? I think the answer is pretty clear.

 

  1. Hold competitions and giveaways.

Hosting giveaways is a good idea, but more often than not, people overuse giveaways.

The thing with giveaways is that they generate a lot of interest in you and your business. After the giveaways are over, you're not getting any return on your investment.

So, hosting giveaways once in a while is good, but don’t overdo it.

Competitions are a little different.

Competitions help bring attention to your brand. But they don’t stop there. Competitions help your business to generate buzz. This attracts a larger, more engaged audience than in giveaways.

If you’re hosting a giveaway, almost everyone will want to participate in it. But when you’re hosting a competition related to a topic in your niche, you’re attracting a smaller but much more valuable group of people.

Another thing with competitions is that you can host yearly competitions, increasing your credibility as a business in the long run.

 

  1. Don’t be too salesy.

When people make the transition from free to paid, one mistake that they do is they sound too salesy if you haven't noticed that already, but not too many people like that.

Most people would want to feel that they are making a decision based on their likes and preferences instead of being led to a button.

Make sure to mention that you have a new product on sale, but be subtle. Don’t stop making new content to promote your products.

Continue to make the same (or better) content that your audience has come to expect from you, and you'll notice a gradual increase in conversions and sales.

 

Conclusion:

Hopefully, this post has given you some insights into how you can convert your customers into paying customers.
