Forums present an

excellent opportunity for

companies to practice what they preach by

providing valuable,

trustworthy information to real people

experiencing real

problems.








Becoming a part of

forum conversations

not only spreads your

brand awareness, but

also helps build trust

between the

community and your

company.








Read the 7 steps to

successful forum

marketing listed

below in order to

take advantage of

what this medium

has to offer.











1. Identify the best forums

Search for popular forums that cover your

business’s niche audience. A great idea is to ask employees,

customers and suppliers

which forums they utilize.








2. Create an account as

soon as possible

Forums often do not allow

new members to post right

away. They also give priority

to seniors on the site.

Therefore, make sure to

create your business

account to start posting as

soon as possible.








3. Introduce Yourself

Create an introductory

post that includes a brief

description of your

expertise regarding the

niche and an

explanation of why you

joined the forum.








4. Spend Some Time Lurking

Refrain from immediately

posting. Like any friend

group, forums are tight knit communities.

Therefore, it is important to

spend time reading the

current posts and to know

influencers.








5. Put Your Website As Your Signature After adding informative

content to the forum

conversation, direct

viewers to your website

by including your website

url as your signature.








6. Create Marketing Campaigns After receiving permission

from the forum and

establishing a relationship

with influencers, conduct

marketing campaigns to

attract niche participants

to your store.








7. Avoid Drama

People who engage in

forums are often

passionate about that

niche topic. Therefore,

at times, emotions can

rise and drama can

occur.







SHARE your PASSION and

KNOWLEDGE with world.
