Make Sure Customers Thinking Of You. Not Your Competitors. Join The Social Media Conversation, And Win.Social media is one of the most powerful tools for growing your business. In fact, 89% of small businesses say it helps them gain exposure and drive web traffic—but most don’t know how to use it effectively.
Here’s the challenge: most businesses fail at social media marketing. Why? They don’t have the time or know-how to create content that grabs attention and turns viewers into customers. Instead of generating leads, their posts get lost in the noise. |
Top 5 Social Media Marketing MistakesMistake #1 - Posting Whatever You Want
Social media is the digital representation of you. You show people videos, images, and posts that you relate to. They mean something to you. That's part of social media. This goes for businesses and brands, too. Social media is the digital representation of your brand. That's why it's important to separate yourself from your brand. It's not a good idea to say what you think and believe, especially if it's controversial. Mistake #2 - Too Much Self-PromotionIt can be hard to not constantly post about your brand
You can't help it - you want your brand known and you want customers or an audience. But if you're posting only self-promotions and no other types of posts (i.e. interesting content and engagement), you're not doing your brand any favors. In fact, you're probably damaging your social media reputation. Avoid this social media mistake by finding a balance between self-promotion and interesting content. Mistake #3 - Posting Irrelevant Content
What do people like? Viral videos, cats, people doing dumb stuff, the list goes on. There's a lot of content out there and you'll probably feel the urge to share that cat video that has 3 million views. Unless you're an animal brand, don't. The simple way to avoid this social media mistake is by posting only relevant content. If a video goes viral and it happens to be something in relation to your brand (like if you're an animal brand), go for it! But if not, save sharing that cat video for your own social media channel. Mistake #4 - Not Creating a Social Media Strategy
This one can really tie into mistakes numbers 2 and 3. Social media is a strategy. It's an art. Before dashing off to Facebook or having someone manage your social media, make sure that you have an adequate plan. Look over and understand the blueprints of your plan and stick to them. Mistake #5 - Ignoring Your Audience
Part of social media is engagement. Engagement is a two-way street. Therefore, you should respond to your audience when they reach out to you. Whether it's a comment or a review, make sure to respond. This way, they know there's someone there behind the keyboard and that they're being listened to. |
