Social Media Marketing for New Businesses 4 Changes for Better Engagements 1. Choose the right social platform: Often businesses fail to identify the right social media platform for their business and use some form of generalized content, creatives and strategy for all the platforms – making the whole process unproductive. Only after proper research does the right target platform can be identified – hat tip: pay close attention to your competitors in your fields. There isn’t any disadvantage of being active on all social platforms only if you optimize your content for every one of them based on their audience. If you are posting the same content on all the platforms you are only spreading yourself thin boring them out and don’t be surprised if you lose them over time. Instead, if you are short of resources you can pick your main target audience – choose the platform/platforms and focus more on them.

Social Media Marketing for New Businesses 4 Changes for Better Engagements 2. Know what works on each social media platform: Once you identify the right platform, focus more on the creatives and type of posts for each platform, in general: Facebook: Facebook is fairly liberal i.e. you can post anything and everything that works with your audience, take feedback and continue your posts that align with your goals – but refrain from posting more than twice per day – one/day works fine. Instagram: Instagram is more of a visual medium that rewards high-quality images, short videos for your brand promotion. Content is relegated to caption, so you can make text images to reach your audience better if it is a content driven posting. You can also use stories for more conversational promotion. Quality of creatives and consistency is the key with Instagram. www.samskritisolutions.com

Social Media Marketing for New Businesses 4 Changes for Better Engagements 3. Relevant #hashtags for Facebook, Twitter and Instagram: One of the most common mistakes we see is the overindulgence in hashtags across social medium which will come off as desperate if not dilute the cause of the social media post. Here are our few tips on hashtags for Facebook, Instagram and Twitter: 1. Relevancy matters a lot for Facebook – according to our stats, two highly relevant hashtags are enough for better engagement from the audience. If you intend to use more during a real-time event, increase the number of posts but limit the hashtags and make them more relevant. 2. Twitter is even more real-time dependent than Facebook given there is something always trending at any point in time. So never use irrelevant hashtags given it can miscommunicate your posts – always aim for 4 or more tweets per day if you depend more on Twitter. Anything less can escape the attention of your followers, given 1 hour is an average cycle time for Twitter. 3. Instagram is a tad more liberal when it comes to hashtags – Aim for 5 to 10 highly relevant hashtags to your post, of which 2-3 are unique to your brand.
