Successful social media strategy
A successful social media strategy begins with identifying the target audience. Who are your personas and what platform are they primarily on? And does your content match the expectations of the platform’s target audience? Although social media platforms are becoming increasingly similar and becoming search engines, there are essential differences. Therefore, it is important to understand which platform best suits the target audience and to use the right tone-of-voice in communications. Depending on what stage of the customer journey the target audience is in, we tailor the content to their needs. Thus, social media marketing can focus on brand awareness of, and engagement with, your brand or product. But social media platforms can also be used for lead generation and as a direct sales channel.
Organic & Sponsored
To be successful in social media marketing, it is important to have a strategy and be consistent in posting content. In addition to posting organic posts with regularity, it is also possible to run paid advertising campaigns. Compared to other marketing channels, social media platforms are relatively inexpensive, highly effective and easily measurable. Budgets can be used on a small scale and target group targeting can be set in great detail, making it possible for anyone to advertise even with a small budget.
