Content Curation and VIP Followers

Tips for Stronger Engagement

  • don't rely on character limits set by the social network
  • set goals for number of social media followers
  • avoid negative interaction
  • allow pre-scheduling of Instagram posts
  • schedule multiple Tweets

Focus on Worthwhile Content and Hashtags

One of your main hacks should be to emphasize content that has a chance to go viral. Heartwarming life stories and humor work well, mixed with information that cannot be found elsewhere. Twitter is a great platform for testing out new ideas due to its brevity. Hashtags (# followed by topic) are effective tools for connecting with like-minded followers. It's possible to develop loyal communities based on actionable hashtags that highlight your main business objectives.

Delight Followers with Attractive Visuals

The visual experience is very important with social media in general and not just on Instagram or Pinterest. Keep in mind that users are scrolling through potentially hundreds of posts and aren't necessarily reading everything. The posts that stand out the most tend to include colourful, inspiring images.

Why LinkedIn Is Important

Even though Facebook is the most popular social network, LinkedIn is a useful platform for building credibility and loyalty. It has a much more serious tone, especially for B2B engagement. The key to attracting "likes" on LinkedIn involves high engagement content with a long list of connections.

Ad Campaign Hacks

Social media offers an extension of influence through advertising. Facebook is powerful since it allows you to customize not only your ad copy, but also your target audience, based on demographics, location, interests and other factors. When you narrow your target for campaigns, it can reduce your marketing costs and boost your engagement. Through analytics, you can learn what your best-converting ad copy is, as well as your most effective keywords. Experiment with multiple campaigns at once to accelerate your learning curve. Segmenting your market by appealing to various buyer personas is a very effective strategy.
