To increase your following and take your social media reach offline, you’ll want to take every opportunity to share your social networking profiles. The more people that become aware of your presence on the social networks that you’re a part of, the more opportunity there is for you to connect, friend and find followers.
Here are five ways to promote social networking offline:
Business Cards – make your business card social media friendly and include links to your Facebook Page, Twitter, LinkedIn or YouTube accounts, make it easy for new contacts to find you or your business
Marketing materials – Include your social profiles on flyers, brochures, programs, handouts or any marketing material

Vehicle –Use your vehicle and a sticker from BumperTwit to get more followers on Twitter
Offline events – if you’re attending or hosting networking events, meetups and live in-person events, take pictures and videos of people and share the experience on Facebook and Twitter
