BACK TO BASICS

WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA?

“The good thing about social media is it gives everyone a voice.

The bad thing is… it gives everyone a voice”

IT IS

Transparent

Humane

Credible

Two-way communication

WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA?

IT IS NOT

9 to 5

A second website

Having control

A quick fix

Free (if you want to do it right)

REACHING POTENTIAL CLIENTS ON SOCIAL

No, but for some pages it is slowly dying.

On average organic reach on Facebook is now 2 to 3%

Meaning: only 2 or 3 of you followers get your update

in their newsfeed!

And after just like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter are now

using algorithms to decide what followers see first on their screen.

IS ORGANIC REACH DEAD?

BUT THERE’S HOPE

There are ways to increase organic reach on Facebook,

like uploading short video’s and

asking followers to subscribe

to your notifications.

But the number one rule is:

POSTS NEED TO BE RELEVANT & ENGAGING

Organic reach rises tremendously when followers

COMMENT, LIKE AND SHARE your posts.

CONTENT IS KING

ASK YOURSELF

Would people share this with their friends?

Would my audience want to see this in their newsfeed?

PROMOTION IS QUEEN

GREAT CONTENT

needs to be promoted (through sponsored posts)

NEW FEATURES ARE YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND

LIKE A VIRGIN

TOUCHED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME

Just because they are shiny and new

they are very much engaging.
