Create poll for X and LinkedIn posts

Create poll for X and LinkedIn posts

Poll posts are a versatile tool to help you increase engagement and brand visibility on your social media, improving overall metrics.You can easily get your customers' opinions and preferences, as well as feedback on how you can improve your product or service. Well-drafted, relevant polls make it more likely for the audience to participate. They feel involved and personally connected to your brand by being a part of the poll, and also find it easy to respond. Audiences will be curious about the outcome of the polls, so when the poll is done, don't forget to share the results and spark some more conversations!

You can post a poll depending on the type of response or inputs you wish to receive from your audience for your brand. You can keep posting fresh content, including asking customers about what feature or product they've been waiting for from your brand, opinions about current issues or trends,  and the best time to conduct a customer-facing event or a webinar. You can even conduct market research before launching a product or feature to find out how well it will be received by the audience. These engagement metrics will give you a great idea to start personalizing your brand according to the audiences' preferences.

With the poll feature available on Zoho Social, you will be able to post polls to your X and LinkedIn audience.
