Home furnishings buying group MEGA Group USA will offer its retailers an incentive on its new social media program at its Sept. 6-9 convention in Louisville, Ky.
The consortium teamed with online ad technology company Netsertive to develop Social Extend, a turnkey social media program. At the core of this powerful program is a dynamic library of professionally curated, relevant content posts, auto-published to a retailers Facebook and Twitter channels.
As a special offer, the first 100 dealers to sign up at the convention will receive 2 free months of the Social Extend service from Netsertive.
Social Extend also synchronizes social marketing with overall marketing campaigns to ensure consistency of targeting, branding and messaging. Additionally, the program delivers reporting of social media results and interactions, plus access to monthly online training classes for local business owners.
Netsertive Marketing Manager Tim McLain, who also heads up the Social Extend program, will demonstrate the program to MEGA Group dealers at the convention on Friday, Sept. 7 during a Social Media Seminar. Many MEGA dealers have been using Social Extend for months.
Today, retailers are busier than ever before and often struggle to consistently be active on their various social media sites, said McLain. With more than 93 percent of Facebook pages being updated weekly, Social Extend takes the burden off of retailers so they can focus on closing sales.
