Improve your social media with the Maybe* webinar exclusive to ACT members

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News

ACT members are invited to join Maybe* on Monday 23rd November at 8pm for a webinar to learn how you can optimise your social media use.

 

This summer saw a phenomenal spike in demand for the cycling industry, with technicians and workshops finding themselves busier than in years, even decades.

Following on from this positive period, it is still important to remember that as we emerge from the extraordinary period of nationwide lockdown, we enter the next phase of uncertainty. In this new cautious shopping environment businesses must stay proactive and forward-thinking.

Consumer shopping habits have altered dramatically throughout the lockdown, according to a survey by Retail Sector, 95% of shoppers have admitted turning to online shopping this year. Now more than ever it is crucial to ensure your online offering is up-to-scratch and an active social media presence can be an excellent way of capturing new and potential customers.

Maybe* is a platform that specialises in helping teams to create exceptional social media experiences that generate business results.

Maybe* are now organising an exclusive webinar reserved especially for ACT members using examples of successful social media profiles from the cycle sector.
