Apart of all social networks, I advise use other tools as newsletters to inform your database about promotions, evaluate opportunity to be present in different magazines or blogs. You also can automate your email marketing. Using pre-set triggers allows you to send hyper-relevant and timely messages seamlessly, delighting your subscribers. For instance, if a customer abandons his cart, an email can encourage him to revisit the site and complete the transaction.
