We are supposed to be using these social media platforms, they arent supposed to be using us
Jen Theuriet
- Create circular viralocity (Brendon Bruchard's term) create a longer piece of content on a weekly basis and break it into smaller chunks (like Jana mentioned) but then have those posts link back to your longer-form content which will hopefully get them to opt into your email list (for creators) – Jen T.
- Set intentions – be clear why you are going into social media so you don't lose time down the rabbit hole (for creatrors & users). – Jen T.
- Use a project management software (like Asana, ClickUp, Air Table, Trello) to create a repeatable checklist of the steps you use to break down larger content into multiple pieces of social media content. (e.g. 4 IG posts, 2 IG stores, 2 IG reels, 3 Clubhouse rooms, 3 Pinterest idea pins, 6 Tweets) (for creators) – Jana O.
- If you engage a lot on IG, keep a google sheet or doc with the URL for profiles you are engaging/nurturing. Open each in a separate tab and get commenting! (Make it fast to access profiles) (for creators) – Jana O.
- Automate Sending Reporting/Metrics to Yourself and Key Team Members so that you are actively looking at your metrics and adjusting your strategy accordingly week-to-week, based on real-time data (for ceators). – Katie M.
- Use your PM tool to track the success metrics for each social channel and whether or not your team is meeting or missing those metrics every week. This will help you distinguish roadblocks in your processes, as well as discerning if a drop in results has to do with the content/strategy itself or if it's a team challenge because it's not getting done (for ceators). – Katie M.
- The Bookmark/Saved function. This is a great function to use to save posts you want to engage in later on. Remove them off of your saved folder once you’re done. (for both consumers & creators). – Stephanie D.
- Pick a pre-scheduler like Facebook's Business Suite or Tailwind. Many social media platforms have a native scheduler that will saves you time.(for ceators) – Stephanie D.
Instead of trying to do the same thing everytime, invest the time to plan out your content.
Jana Osofsky
- Create collaborations for both for competitors and other biz that serve your niche, this will help you both grow and further your authority (for creators). – Jen T.
- For Pinterest: Make a keyword master list and use it each time you pin. So you're not re-inventing the wheel. (Use CTRL+F to find relevant keywords). – Jana O.
- Have specific days of the week that you focus on sales conversations in the DMs and prompt them on those days only so you can have someone waiting and ready to have those conversations (for ceators). – Katie M.
- Create a mood/vibe board to share w your team. So they know what you’re looking for and how you want things to look, sound and feel. It will save you time and effort. (for creators) – Stephanie D.
