KEYS TO SOCIAL MEDIA SUCCESS!
CONTENT… CONTENT… CONTENT
Content people want to see - the term in the industry is engagement, but it is worthy of an explanation. We find that the best performing channels achieve a good balance of communicating an organization’s key messages, and what followers find entertaining or useful. Ultimately if the unique design and marketing elements results in an unexpected laugh, bits of knowledge, or something helpful, inspiring, or entertaining, it’s a safe bet the content is engaging!
Content is discoverable - gone are the early days of social media, where you can share a great photo and get views. Did you know that there are 350 million photos uploaded daily to Facebook? There is no shortage of content competing within any social media platform. Make sure you budget time and money to paid ad campaigns and hashtag research to maximize the effectiveness of your content.
Regular content schedule - running a business is a balancing act between various daily tasks and long term projects. A regular flow of social media posts will ensure your business is top-of-mind when it comes time for your customers to purchase. Regular organic posts and a targeted paid campaign are typically the best combination for best results!
