Marketing Strategy
Discover how social media marketing and a thriving business go hand in hand.
Social media marketing is more than just creating compelling content. It’s creating content that provides useful information and entertains viewers. That content also has to persuade people to spread the word about your business, brand, product, and service. But guess what? Social media is the most effective electronic word-of-mouth you can incorporate into your marketing plan.
The right social media marketing helps your message move from your followers to your followers’ followers. It’s word of mouth from friend-to-friend instead of directly from a company. It’s powerful because people do business with companies they trust, and when they hear about your brand from a friend, it automatically instills a sense of trust and familiarity. These are the reasons why we put such emphasis on social media engagement with our marketing clients.
What is
Social Media Engagement
Social media is currently the top marketing channel because it reaches all demographics, including age, gender, background, ethnicity, income level, education, profession, and marital status. In 2019, 79% of the U.S. population, or 247 million people, had at least one social media profile. Social media engagement is how companies create awareness of their brand, product, and service by showing the human side of the business. If done right, it drives customer engagement. The goal is not only to connect with customers and potential customers but to leverage the platforms to generate quality leads.
Where to Be
on Social Media
Engagement is partly about the message and partly about getting it in front of the right people. It’s hard to know where to focus your efforts these days with so many social media outlets attracting huge audiences to multiple platforms. There are the old standards, including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram, as well as Snapchat, TikTok, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and Reddit, just to name a few.
There are more, but do you need to know every platform to launch a successful social media engagement campaign? Not necessarily. It’s about knowing where to focus your efforts to find your customers. But where are they most likely to be? And how can you engage them where they’re already spending time? That’s where our Social Engagement Program starts to work for you.
