\n
Reply to their question or comment with helpful advice. Be genuine, not salesy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If you see a pattern in what people are struggling with, make a blog post or video to address it. It\u2019s a great way to attract more leads.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Use what you\u2019ve learned to target your ads better. Focus on people who are already talking about what you sell.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If someone shows interest, don\u2019t just send a generic pitch. Tailor your response to what they\u2019ve shared. And share something relevant for them based on the signal your identified.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n5. Tips for getting the most out of social intent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
