Nowadays social media can be used for marketing effort to strengthen or assist a business goal. It is known as a social media campaign. In a campaign, businessmen determine what their goal is. Common goals in business may include having users give feedback, getting customers to have more concern for the brand or having sales increase. Business goals are usually shaped by the available means and the target audience. So the businessmen would prefer to choose suitable media platforms to get access to certain audience (users or customers). Of course, many free social media marketing apps have been made to track shares, replies, likes and keywords related to a brand. Moreover, certain media services are built to combine with personal social media accounts to see who is seeing media posts and how they are responding. These tools get users to interact with social media posts, ask questions, provide reviews, and even enter contests. Positive interaction, personal attention and prizes are critical in a campaign because they get the audience to be more involved in the campaign. And this, in turn, helps businessmen a lot in adjusting their business strategies. Additionally, businesses can collaborate with influencers, run targeted advertisements, and use data analytics to refine their approach, ensuring their campaigns reach the right audience effectively and maximize engagement.
