Social Media Strategy

You don’t want to leave planning the content for your social media platforms to chance which will often lead to inconsistent post, unattractive visuals, and posts that add little to no value to your followers.

Staying active with your social media platforms is vital and there are a few ways you can ensure they stay up to date.

  • Creating a content schedule and calendar will allow you to think of unique content that caters to each platform and can work with each season. Each platform runs off a different algorithm so what you post on one platform isn’t going to necessarily work on another. Take into consideration that some platforms would rather you post once or twice a day while others favor those who post multiple times a day and you are heading for a whirlwind of social media disaster. A content calendar will help you take the guesswork out of when and where you need to post and will organize what you want to post so that you follow your campaign strategy.
  • Use automation when needed. A number of platforms will allow you to schedule posts to automatically show up on your timeline or newsfeed which you can plan out for the week, there are also apps that will allow you to do this for multiple platforms. When possible try to automate what you can so you can save yourself time and energy.
  • With some many platforms you don’t want to be wasting energy on platforms that aren’t reaching your target market. Take into consideration who your ideal customers or clients are and make those platforms a priority. While you can still utilize the other platforms you don’t want to be trying to master when, how and what to post on a platform that really doesn’t serve your brand.
  • Don’t try to reinvent the wheel when it comes to your content. There are many ways you can reuse the content you share. You can create a blog post and talk about it on your other social media networks, or consider the stories many platforms use and how you can then reuse that content to create a post.

Don’t forget to block out 10-20 minutes throughout the day to respond to comments and questions. While you block out this small chunks of time you’ll stay focused on the task and won’t get overwhelmed with all the social media activity.
