#1 Come Up With A Social Platform Strategy

What is your purpose on social media? To gain brand awareness? Do you want more people to visit your website? Do you want to increase your sales? Choose your main goal and always keep it in mind as you develop content.

#2 Curate Relevant Content

Focus on content that intrigues readers without being overtly salesy. Once you grab their attention and they trust you, you’ll have more success selling to them.

#3 Use Updated Images

Think about what usually catches your eye when scrolling through your social media feeds. It’s almost always a really nice image. It’s very important to post nice updated images with minimal text captions. When the consumer is scrolling through their feed, it’s usually at a fast pace. Catch their eye with a nice updated picture for better results!

#4 Engage Engage Engage

This is a very simple step that many people overlook. You’ll be able to build your following by interacting with your current followers along the way. Remember to reply to comments, like comments, retweet posts, and if you share their posts they’re more likely to share yours.
