The amount of website traffic (or visitors) compared to the number of sales (or leads) you get are called the “sales conversion ratio”. The main focus of your website  is promoting your product or service. But it should also be a tool to gather useful, informative material relevant to your industry.

Repeat exposure and brand recognition

Social media channels are ideal to display your brand’s voice and content. It increases accessibility for potential new customers. It also ensures that you’re more recognizable for existing customers.  An uninterested customer might become better acquainted with your brand because of your network presence.
