The PR Breakdown with Molly McPherson 25: Why Major League Baseball Hits a Homerun Marketing to Fans
Major League Baseball hits a home run when it comes to social media strategy. But you don’t have to be a multi-billion dollar enterprise to get noticed and stay relevant.
By following the winning tactics teams use to engage their fans, you’ll soon be hitting social media home runs with the big leagues. That doesn’t mean you need to be on all the social platforms; it just means that you need to find which platforms your people are on, know what’s going to stop their scroll and then give them the content they want.
On today’s episode of the Confident Communications podcast, I’m sharing five hits for how to market to your fans by using social media. And you’ll also learn how to avoid a strikeout by employees who don’t use social media properly (or in your organization’s best interest).
