Infusionsoft Leverages Social Media to Grow Relationships
Infusionsoft, the leader in automatic follow-up software for small businesses with the famous ‘Double Your Sales’ guarantee, today announced some of the recent social media activities the company has undertaken to support users and nurture relationships with prospects, driving down support costs and increasing customer satisfaction in the process. Social media has proven to be an important way for Infusionsoft to build and maintain relationships with prospective and current customers in the small business and entrepreneur communities.
Since January 2009, Infusionsoft has experienced a 672% increase in social media followers and has celebrated that increased involvement by focusing on honest, give-and-take conversations across several social media channels, as well as by kicking off a number of interactive projects. Recent social media highlights include:
Small Business Declaration of Independence blog – Infusionsoft declared July ‘Entrepreneur Independence Month’ and had several national small business experts share their advice for the rest of 2009. Entrepreneurs were encouraged to sign the declaration with an explanation of why they became an independent small business.
Infusionsoft Small Business Tools Twitter Giveaway – To celebrate ‘Entrepreneur Independence Month,’ Infusionsoft held a contest on Twitter, giving away one year of Infusionsoft service and a free Asus Netbook to eight entrepreneurs. @Infusionsoft currently has over 4700 Twitter followers.

“Social media enables us to have meaningful conversations with both our customers and prospects,” said Joseph Manna, community manager and social media evangelist at Infusionsoft. “Through a wide range of social media, including Facebook, Twitter, livestreams and our blog, we’re able to listen and respond to what our customers want and need. This feedback is invaluable to us as a business, and through it we’re able to add new features to our software to make it even easier for our customers to grow their business quickly.”
