24 call-to-actions that *actually* work
Just as important as it is to hook your audience from the start, is the ability to get them to take action at the end.
This is where call-to-actions come in play.
A call-to-action is is a prompt to get your followers to do something specific like engage with your content, subscribe to your list, take action on your website.
They're essential to gain traction on social. Why you ask? When it comes to social, the name of the game is engagement and these little CTAs are game-changers.
I've demonstrated this time and time again at my speaking engagements. When I ask the audience to repeat after me, clap, raise their hands, they do...because I simply asked.
Asking is the first step to action.
The more actions on your posts and pages = more exposure to a broader audience and more sales.
