And the moment we do that, we’re creating massive volumes data trails of our likes, dislikes, interests, and what not. This data helps marketers to create ‘smart’ and informed campaigns.

Join ‘free’ for a month

One of the best ways to attract visitors is to have a call-to-action option that offers a limited period of free trial for products. This is also an effective strategy for converting visitors into customers. This strategy of offering a free trial for a few months and after that charging the customers is commonly referred to as ‘freemium’ (free + premium).

Register for ‘your’ free trial

Here the word ‘your’ creates a sense of personalization in the minds of the audience. Having a conversational tone will help marketers increase the number of potential leads.’ Moreover, the use of ‘active language,’ such as ‘try,’ ‘explore,’ or ‘register,’ in the call-to-action options end up getting more clicks. Besides, the ‘offer a free trial’ option gives you an opportunity to showcase the full potential of your product. On the other hand, visitors feel more confident in buying your product once they have a hands-on experience.

Claim your free product ‘now’

In this option, the usage of the word ‘now’ creates a ‘sense of urgency’ in the audience. Sometimes, the target audience likes your product but plans to buy it only later. But later on, they might completely forget about your product. Hence, digital marketers should make a smart move by creating a condition where they subtly force the visitors to buy the product as soon as possible. For instance, having a call-to-action option that says ‘X days left to avail the discount offer’ or ‘call us’ instead of ‘contact us’ will help marketers get more attention from the visitors on social media for business.

Creating a right, effective, and well-crafted call-to-action is vital for marketing on social media for business, helping marketers increase leads and get more customers. Following the list and tips shared above will help marketers create the right call-to-action options for their unique products and marketing needs.
