6 Easy Ways Your Business Can Get Snapchat Followers You’ve created your Snapchat account and have started to share some snaps. The only problem is…you don’t have any followers. Searching other Snap chatters is not possible. You can’t find other users in the app unless you know someone’s specific username, have their Snapchat code, or have their phone number in your address book. Here are some tips to promote your Snapchat account and grow a following. 1. Use the network you know the best — your email list! Your contacts signed up to receive emails from your business. They're likely to follow you on other social platforms, such as Snapchat. Include a call-to-action in your next email campaign asking them to follow you on Snapchat. Be sure to include your username, a brief description of why they should follow you, and what they can expect from your story — such as coupons or behind-the-scenes footage.
