A lifestyle strategy approach to social media
When it comes to social media marketing, you need to consider one key word ‘valuable’. Ask yourself, what value does your social content provide your followers? Social media has become a huge part of our lives, so how does your content fit in with your followers’ lifestyle?
Take a moment to open your personal Facebook account and really think about what it is companies are posting about and advertising.
Content marketing is becoming less about the words you put on a page and more about the experiences you create for your followers. With social media marketing becoming a daily influence in both personal and professional lives, your content strategy is key.
So what should your social media strategy incorporate? To create this ‘lifestyle’ approach that connects with your followers on the next level, think about incorporating a mix of the following:
Service/Product offerings:
Although this is probably the one thing every company does on social media, try to share your service offerings in different ways – think about key messages and how you’re portraying them.
Note: Trying to straight out hard sell to your followers consistently will result in lower engagement levels and a higher unfollowed rate.
Blogs:
Blogging is something we encourage all our clients to get involved with. It’s a great form of content marketing and once pushed through to social media accounts, it helps enormously with generating traffic to your website and gives your followers that little bit extra content!
Industry News:
With a dramatic rise in people looking to social media for the latest news and happenings, forward thinking companies are taking to social media to share news relevant to their following. If you’re in professional services, be sure to share news on what’s happening and how it may affect your followers.
Note: Be sure to check a website’s credibility and read articles carefully to ensure you’re not sharing ‘fake news’ in order not to hurt your own business’s reputation and positioning.
Interesting related articles:
Who doesn’t love a good read? Mix it up, if it’s on brand/relevant to your business offerings, chances are your audience will engage. Think, “10 benefits for... 5 ways how... did you know...”
Promotions/Competitions:
Throw in a promotion/competition – show your followers you appreciate their attention and commitment to your brand by giving back. “For the month of May receive 20% off… Like and Share for your chance to win this...”
Behind the Scenes:
Show a bit of company personality! If you’re in retail, fashion or hospitality, get on Snapchat and connect with your audience in a more personal way by snapping that photo shoot, or new menu.
Customer Experiences:
Every now and then share a customer’s experience, give your brand that reality aspect – millennial’s these day’s love nothing more than checking out reviews to see whether your product or service is for them!
Quotes:
Motivating, inspiring, humorous, informative, educational – every one loves a good quote they can relate too.
Note: Quotes are re-shared and liked like crazy, so it’s a good start to engage your audience!
Visuals:
Visuals are key – ask any marketing expert how important the visual aspect of any communication is! Be creative, yet strategic and ensure all your images are in line with your brand.
Note: Infographics are also great! Easy to understand and visually appealing.
Remember, authentic content is key! Mix up your social media now and play the game strategically.

ReplyI never faced this kind of issues, generally, people go for link building without any proper check of the Spam Score which has more chance for a hacker to hack our website.

06 Jul 2017I love your idea of a 'lifestyle approach' towards social media strategy's. Especially incorporating 'behind the scenes' into the strategy. As a customer, I enjoy watching behind the scenes snapchat or Instagram videos of some of my favourite brands. For instance, the cosmetic company Anastasia Beverly Hills regularly posts videos on their instagram story, showing how customers can use their products for different looks; this is done very well by showing exactly what products they're using and every step of the process, all in a short instagram story. Kind of like a quick youtube makeup tutorial. A great example of valuable social media marketing.

26 May 2017Very informative, thank you. Social media marketing is all about engaging with your audience, and I believe that creating valuable content that your audience can relate to is key. There’s almost 1.7 billion users on Facebook now, so the consumer reach is huge, but this also means that there is an enormous number of businesses using this marketing technique and as a result, consumers are becoming less responsive to advertising material. The tips provided in this article are excellent in relation to content creation, however there is a lot more to Facebook advertising than this. Using A/B testing to check the effectiveness of your content is also extremely valuable, and there are a bunch of other tools incorporated into Facebook advertising that are worth mentioning.
