Damion & Natalie, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
Best of Washington started in September of 2020 during quarantine. We wanted to make a fun online group of people that wanted to share our love of Washington state, we then invited residents of Washington to show creative, fun and engaging content about the state! After a week of starting the page we hit 10k followers on Tik tok, after a month we reached 100k on Tik tok, it then continued to grow and we took it more serious as businesses started to reach out to us and wanted to be featured on our page. We then kept growing and working with more and more businesses and posting daily and they key for us was to be consistent and make sure we posted content about Washington every day. Today it’s just Damion and Natalie focused on growing the group and working with hundreds and hundreds of businesses around Washington state to give our viewers daily content and fun things about our beautiful state.
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
For us, Instagram is the platform we have used for clients to reach out to us and for us to reach out to prospective clients. We reach out to hundreds of clients monthly and several reach out to us to be featured on best of Washington. Most businesses have an instagram account and see our content and really get excited to have their business featured on our page and for our audience to see them and help them grow.
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
The advice we would give to anyone starting out and trying to grow a social media presence would be consistency, consistency, consistency we believe that is key to success and for best of Washington it’s a big part of what we want to put out there because accounts that do not post on a daily basis do not prosper in social media so in order to be successful and reach a broader audience you need to have content on a consistent basis daily and that’s what we do
