Planning Your Social Media Posts

If you’re a pro at social media, then you can just hop onto Instagram or Twitter and post without giving it a second thought. But not everyone is a pro. Beginners need to take the time to plan out what their posts are going to look like. I like to compare it to walking into the gym for the first time. You can’t just jump up to the 100lb weights. First, you have to start with that 5-10lb range. Today we’re going to talk about how to successfully create that 5-10lb social media post.

 

In this podcast episode, we share: 

• Choosing only 1 platform to start out
• How often you should even be posting on social media
• Utilizing promotional content in order to grow your brand
• Showcasing your expertise through educational content
• Letting everyone know that this whole thing is bigger than you
• Sharing entertaining content to keep it light-hearted
• Engaging with your audience with quotes, questions, or controversial topics
• Creating designs for all or some of your content pillars
• Outlining a fuller content calendar for yourself
• Using free tools to help you plan your calendar
• Planning for all of your future needs and growth

Memorable Quotes: 

• “I can’t just run-up to those 100lb weights and start lifting them. I’ve got to start with those 5-10lb weights first.”
• “A lot of people like sharing their opinion. Everyone’s got one, and we all love sharing it.”
