Introduction
Social media is more than just the way you can reach out to your friends and family. It's also a way for people to share their interests and hobbies with others who may be interested in what they have to say. By taking advantage of this unique opportunity, you can make your online courses as popular as possible.
Facebook Groups
Facebook groups are a great way to connect with other online course creators, so I recommend you create a Facebook group for your online course.
The objective of this group is to provide an opportunity for students to ask questions and get answers from each other. As the instructor, you can monitor the page and answer questions when it's convenient for you.
You can also use the group as a place where students can share resources and ideas for learning topics covered in your online course or furthering their careers after taking your class (be sure to give them credit when they do). You may even decide to host live Q&A sessions on specific topics related to what's being covered in the current session so that everyone has access at once! For example:
A Facebook Group could be used as another way of promoting an upcoming live event hosted by one of our sponsors who wants their name out there more often than just during our weekly show each month (examples below). This could include things like free giveaways each week leading up until the event date itself;
Another great way would be having hosts post links directly on social media platforms like Pinterest or Instagram which drive traffic back over here where people can find out more information about upcoming events happening either locally or nationally/internationally--and maybe even learn how they could get involved
Instagram is a visual platform. You should be using it to share your videos, images, blog posts, and podcasts.
Instagram is a great place to post original content because it has such high engagement. People love seeing new things on Instagram and they’re more likely to interact with your posts than they are on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook where people are used to seeing links shared from other sites or from news outlets.
Instagram also allows you to build a community around your course by encouraging followers to comment on your posts in order for everyone else who follows you to see what others have said about the content that you are sharing online. This keeps the conversation going so that people who join after the fact will still feel engaged with all of their fellow students even though they won’t necessarily know how far along everyone else was when they first started following along (or if someone else started before them).
Twitter is a great way to connect with your audience and share information about your online courses. It’s also easy to set up, which means you can get started right away without having to invest in any expensive software or hire an expert.
To create an account on Twitter, all you have to do is go to their website (twitter.com) and click “Sign Up” in the top right corner of the screen. You'll need some information before signing up—like an email address and password that are both unique—but once you're signed up, it's time for step two: creating content for Twitter!
In this step, we'll talk about how you can use Twitter as a marketing tool for your online course business by finding potential students and sharing valuable resources related to your area(s) of expertise with them through tweets (Twitter posts).
LinkedIn groups
LinkedIn groups are a great way to connect with other professionals who work in your field. You can use these groups as a place to share articles, ask questions, and engage in conversations. It’s important to be respectful of others in the group so that they feel comfortable participating. When first joining a LinkedIn group, spend some time reading through posts and comments before posting anything yourself.
You can find LinkedIn groups by searching for keywords related to your industry or niche (for example, “online learning” or “social media marketing”). Once you find relevant groups, join them! It doesn't hurt to do some basic research on each group before joining so that you know what kind of tone it takes on and what kinds of discussions happen there regularly--this will help ensure that it's worth spending time there every day!
Google Plus Communities and Thunderclap
While the majority of your marketing will be done through social media, it's also important to utilize Google Plus Communities and Thunderclap.
These tools can help you connect with people who share similar interests as yourself, giving you more potential students for your online course. Thunderclap is an app that allows users to upload content to social media at the same time. For example, if 10 different people all post something on Twitter at the same time using Thunderclap, it will appear as if all of those posts were made by one person when viewed in chronological order (though each individual post has its own unique timestamp). This is a great way to get more exposure for your content!
Quora and Reddit
You can also use Quora and Reddit to get feedback on your online course. Quora is a great place to post questions about your online course and get specific advice from people who have similar interests. For example, if you're an entrepreneur who creates courses on how to start a business, you could ask questions like “What's the most important thing that I should be doing right now?” or “How can I make my product more appealing?” Reddit is also good for getting advice because it has several different subreddits dedicated specifically to learning new skills. In addition, there are several subreddits where people post questions asking what kind of classes they should take in order to become better at their jobs (e.g., [r/learnprogramming]()). You can share links about your online course here too!
Conclusion
Social media is a great way to get your name out there, build a community and find potential students for your online courses. I hope this blog post has given you some ideas on how to use social media to increase sales of your product or service.
