But we all make some silly mistakes & try to show off worst way possible. It’s not 2010 – just like the dab is not cool anymore, you can’t just post pictures of the box of your new phone & write “finally got it’ – that’s kinda lame. You want as much as engagement possible but lame techniques will kill the post immediately – cuz other people have stuff’s to do. Well, luckily we got you covered – spend weeks finding these cool ways to show your new gadgets in style from the very best in social media.

 

Show Off Gadgets Like A Pro – Works Everytime

You gotta be smart & can’t reveal too much – that’s what pros do. Everyone knows how new iPhone X looks or anything that’s new & buzzing – if all these doesn’t make sense now don’t worry. Let’s explore some of the common error first. Then eventually we will talk about how pros get these things done.

 

1) The Classic ‘Finally Got It’ : 

We see this very often & it’s annoying. Seriously this type post will get a lot of hate & almost zero engagement. It was considered cool in like 2010 – not anymore. Now its all about mystery & keeping your followers or friends guessing which will encourage them to comment, like etc.

 

That picture explains everything, don’t post like this with the most annoying caption of all time ”Finally Got It”. Doesn’t matter what the gadget – people don’t have time for this nowadays.

2) The “Holding & Capture” :

That’s the most desperate way to show off anything. Much worse than the box one. People already have seen it the tv, news, everything – they know the gadgets is out, stop holding it in your hands and sharing a picture of it as if you are presenting it to the press.

 

Stay away from this. It’s not cool & sometimes its offensive. Gives you almost no engagement with lots of trolls. Don’t embarrass your self.

 

These should give you some idea what not to do. Following these age-old techniques are not worth it. Let’s find out what we are here for – the pro style.

 

 

How Pros Do It

You can’t be a pro within a day. You have to learn this & practice. As we told before – the best way to show off is to make it a bit distracting & mysterious. Instead of talking about the new gadget, talk about something else & show off that shiny gadget somehow. Following technique should give you a good idea of what we are talking about.

 

1) The Dummy : 

That’s the best way to do it. Guarantee maximum engagement. If you are familiar with soccer – it’s just like the dummy. Where a player pretends to receive the ball but eventually leaves it for another player. Fools everyone & gets the work done.

 

 

In the picture above you see a typical example of dummy method. Instead of posting a picture writing “Got my new Apple Watch” – you write “It was a good shift or something else“. Basically, you are talking about the workout you just finished – happens to have the brand new Apple Watch on your hand. This will ensure maximum engagement with lots of question – some will ask about the new watch, just ignore them don’t replay them immediately – just wait a couple of hours & then replay this will make the post reach even more people. Now, what if you want to show off a bunch of stuff you just bought at once. Look a the following picture – you should make the post about the least interesting thing in the picture.

 

 

Here possible caption would be “Just completed the book – highly recommended.”. You get the point – that’s how to use the dummy technique. Very effective & a preferred method for all the pros. That picture is not perfect, to be honest, just make sure you put a bit more focus on the book – your gadgets don’ have to be on full display like that MacBook Pro. The less you show more it works perfectly & trust us people know how these new gadgets look from every angle.

 

2) Complaining About : 

This works but not as effective as the dummy. Here you complain about a feature that doesn’t bother you at all – just a PR stunt. You include a photo or screenshot. People like to get involved in this type of discussion – so guarantees lots of comments.

  

A caption like “Miss that old feature” or “Already struggling with battery” etc. can be a good example.

 

That picture is the perfect example. But careful there are some smart brains out there, so make it as random as possible.
