Social Media

Internet users spend an average of 144 minutes on social media/day—connect with them where they are.

Tell Your Brand Story

Engage with shoppers and tout what makes you unique. As a community-focused, independent retailer, you can engage with shoppers in way that is more authentic—and more productive—than the chains ever could.

But the internet never sleeps, which means social media requires attention and maintenance that isn’t easy to come by with all that’s going on in your store. That’s why IGA has compiled several resources to help you put your best social media foot forward:

  • IGA.com Shareable Shopper Solutions

What makes your store stand out? Do you have a rocking deli, amazingly fresh produce, expansive Kosher offerings, or serve up an array of locally-sourced products?

With IGA Social you can identify the attributes that define your store, and Red Oval Partner AR Marketing will automatically post original, IGA-branded content to your Facebook and Twitter account that plays up your strengths. In addition, IGA Social will publish* your weekly ad so your new raving fans have quick access to all your hottest deals. From there you manage the rest--like posting your own store-generated content and responding to customer questions, comments and replies. Have Instagram? Not problem! For an additional $20 a month, you can add Instagram to the mix.
