Social media has become a huge part of digital marketing and SEO. Everyone does social media so you can’t afford to ignore it. Most businesses know they must have at least some kind of social media presence if they want to stay relevant online. Additionally, most businesses are aware that they need to include company news as part of their social media efforts. However, did you know that company news is just scratching the surface when it comes to social media posts?
There are so many other types of posts you should be sharing through social media. Here are a few.
Guest content – having content created by others in the industry, influencers in other industries, or even some of your most loyal followers can be a great way to share posts on social media when you don’t have any company news to share.
Repackaged or updated content – some of the best content is repackaged or refreshed content that has already done well before. You can refresh older content by using new images, or links, as well as adding any updated information. This is a great way to interact with followers and give them more of what they like.
Industry player and customer content – another way to stay engaged with your followers when the news is a little slow is to share other relevant posts. These can come from your industry partners, your social buddies, and your customers. By sharing and commenting on other posts that are relevant to your audience you can engage them more often and attract followers from other businesses.
Follower engagement – whenever you get positive feedback and other types of engagement from your followers you should share this content with everyone else. Likewise, you should be trying to engage with your followers all the time. You can’t just try to engage them when you have company news to share. Sometimes, simply engaging your followers with conversational posts is a great way to get them to engage back with you. This builds your relationship with them and their trust in your brand.
