You never know what will come across your social media feed. You might start to see videos and come up with lots of ideas. Are you getting too analytical? The videos showcase how people are leveraging the power of social media content to make business transactions.
The people might be selling the same products, but they do it in different ways. The raw business is taking place in various locations. Some people operate out of retail locations. Others might do their business by using storage facilities and yet others might even work from home or use their cars and trucks to make deliveries.
Some of the people share their marketing tips. Do they have websites and business cards? Are they just putting their social media accounts to work? You see many people just recording the interactions of the sales and it turns into an indirect sales video.
The hand to hand cash transactions are not the only way that things get done. Zelle is another keyword that usually pops up. The videos are interesting and seeing raw business taking place is insightful. Some of the transactions are not happening in big retail store locations, but they are happening. It might be just one person trying to handle the transactions and the lines can form. The business owners have to process the transaction and deliver the goods in a timely manner. Greeting the customers by exchanging names and making sure to get the order correct might extend the transaction time.
Many of the times you see that the business owners are just relying on haphazard tools to tract the orders. Some of them might use a smartphone to check text messages, but you usually don’t see an app.
The business transactions taking place show the real time realities of business. It might not be pretty and it might not be uniform. There might be lots of pretty business plans, but there might not be any movement. The transactions happening in the wild might be clunky, but they are happening.
Are you too focused on the wrong things?
