When most people think about Snapchat, they think about millennials documenting their every move. There is an impressive number of snaps sent every day (several million in fact) so it is quickly growing in popularity. Because of this, many businesses are starting to look for ways to grab the attention of all of the millions of users on this social media site.

It can be tricky to incorporate Snapchat into your marketing campaign so here are some tips to help you get started.

Target your key audience. Though this is true in any marketing campaign, you need to know who you are trying to reach so you can figure out the best way to catch their attention. Otherwise, you are just wasting your time.  

Offer something extra to your valued Snapchat audience. Give them content that they won't find on any other social media site. Give them access into your daily life and business.

Contests give people more reason to check out your snaps! Everyone loves a good contest or giveaway so make sure that you offer them plenty of reasons to keep checking back. Many businesses are starting to have contests where they ask fans to take a snap while using their product or visiting their restaurant. These are often very popular, as well as fun for everyone!

As with other types of marketing, you really need to know your audience and what catches their eye. You should also give them content that you don't share at other places. Then, try to incorporate a fresh and exciting twist to your favorite contest to help you grow your business quickly. One of the easiest ways to do this is by asking your customers to take a snap with your products or at your place of business. These types of contests are really fun for everyone and can gain you a lot of attention!
