Companies must understand their target audience, where they spend time online, and what types of content would be most relevant and valuable. A two-way conversation needs to be fostered where customer and partner perspectives are embraced. Successful strategies involve consistently posting high-quality, useful content across multiple platforms like blogs, Facebook, and websites to engage more people.
