Let’s talk about the Grammys + THAT stunt 🎵🎤

For those that came in late - ol’ envelope pusher Kanye West (aka Ye) - showed us how to become the most Googled person on the planet by getting wifey Bianca (aka Kim Kardashian’s doppleganger) to drop her fur coat to reveal, well, NOTHING underneath.

Helloooo marketing stunt (to promote his clothing line Yeezy). It was a controversial move that turned heads + made headlines alright.

But are we down with such a stunt? Let’s break it down with a good ol’ fashion pros V cons list:

Ye(ah):

⚡️B is for buzz + brand recall - bold moves like this creates massive media buzz. And when your campaign makes headlines? Your brand is unforgettable.

⚡️ Breaking through the noise - in a world flooded with ordinary (read: SAFE) ads, shock value can cut through the clutter + get people talking.

⚡️ Google goes off - controversial tactics often drive Google searches, hits to website, social media shares, likes, and discussions—great for boosting visibility and, ultimately, sales.

Nahhh (ba boum!):

⚡️ Don’t hate, alienate - not everyone loves controversy. A quick scan across the net and a stunt like this can backfire by offending or alienating a significant part of your audience.

⚡️ Brand rep - when your marketing is too edgy, it might overshadow the product itself, leaving consumers wondering if it’s quality or just gimmickry. Oh and speaking of - unpopular opinion - I feel the Grammys and all the award shows are giving gimmick vibes - cue: Jade Smith with a castle on his head. A big LOL + WTF!)

⚡️ Sustainability - relying on shock value might work in the short term, but it may not build lasting customer loyalty if the product doesn’t stand on its own.

So, what’s the verdict? Genius branding or too wild? If you want my opinion (that nobody probs asked for 😆) - it was too stunt-y for me. Weigh in below 👇

POV: you see your IG aesthetic errywhere [and decorate your Christmas tree accordingly!] 💜💙💗

Your brand’s aesthetic isn’t just about looking pretty on Instagram though - it’s about creating a vibe that follows your audience everywhere they go.

Yup, a powerful brand aesthetic goes beyond just great visuals on your social feed. It’s about creating a cohesive + memorable experience that transcends platforms + physical spaces, leaving your audience feeling connected to your brand wherever they see it.

Think Coke - the classic red and white + the signature script logo, is recognisable AF on cans, billboards, Instagram etc + their aesthetic creates a feeling of nostalgia and happiness that stays with you.

Or Apple - aka sleek, minimalist, and innovative. Apple’s clean design is consistent from their website to their stores and socials. You instantly associate their aesthetic with cutting-edge technology and simplicity.

The takeaway?

A cohesive aesthetic builds recognition, trust, and emotional connections with your audience. Make sure your branding [colours, typography, imagery + tone] tells the same story across Instagram, your website, packaging, events + beyond.

Your brand isn’t just what people see; it’s what they feel. ✌️

How YOU can leverage AI in 2025

Ahh good ol’ A to the I - I may or may not have banged on about it in my presentation a couple o’ weeks ago.

Here’s some key points on how to leverage AI for your biz.

🤖 Content creation - use tools like Jasper + Canva’s Magic Studio to automate image generation + video editing.
🤖 Hyper-targeted content - with data-driven insights, AI can analyse user behaviour patterns, preferences, and demographics, allowing us to create hyper-targeted content. This ensures the right message reaches the right audience in the most effective way.
🤖 Customer service - AI chatbots are now highly sophisticated, with platforms like ManyChat being used to automate customer interactions, especially on social platforms - like Messenger + Instagram DMs.
🤖 For precise ad targeting - by analysing data patterns, customer behaviours, and real-time interactions. This allows marketers to optimise spend and maximise conversions.
🤖 Personalisation - AI enables dynamic, personalised content delivery. This could mean serving unique product suggestions based on user preferences or tailoring entire ad campaigns according to real-time engagement.

… Three cheers for AI [kinda!] 🥳

Want social media to work for your business?

Yes please! Tell me how.

Well firstly:

💬 social media is a two way street.
💬 It’s called ‘social’ media for a reason.
💬 Give engagement to get engagement.
💬 Don’t just post and ghost.

So how can I be social on social media?

✨ Build + cultivate - grow your personal + professional networks by showing up and interacting like a human -and not a bot 😅
✨ Develop + grow - strengthen your relationships with customers + influencers— it’s all about real connection.
✨ Engage + interact - answer those queries, jump into convos, and be part of the action. People notice when you show up / care.

Why are you telling me this?

Because being social means more engagement and more engagement means more visibility. It’s good for the ol’ algorithms and platforms reward accounts that are active and interactive—so double tap, share, and comment away.

And authentic engagement builds trust, loyalty, and turns your followers into… customers! 👏

Kerching, kerching 💸💸

Sooo you’ve got yo’self an Instagram profile (or ‘insty’ as my kid calls it) 👏👏

Now what?

Having an Instagram account is a great start—hello, beautiful-looking grid + fab stories! But here’s the thing: it’s just the tip of the marketing iceberg.

Because… If you’re only focusing on Instagram, you’re missing out on a whole world of marketing opportunities to grow your biz. Let’s look at a few:

⚡️email marketing - collect followers
but also collect emails! Enewsletters are a game-changer. Your followers’ feeds are crowded, but a well-crafted email lands directly in their inbox. Share exclusive content, promotions + updates to keep your audience engaged on a whole new level.

⚡️website - your IG is like your bizzo’s highlight reel, while your website is the full movie experience - popcorn inc. It’s where your brand truly comes to life. Make sure your website copy is compelling + tells your story. Guide visitors through your bizzo and give them a place to explore, book or buy without distractions.

⚡️ copywriting - social media posts are just the beginning. The real magic happens when you nail your blog content, website copy, and social copy across platforms. Think catchy headlines, detailed product descriptions, packaging copy + more. Engaging, on-brand writing turns casual browsers into loyal customers.

⚡️ other social media platforms - Instagram is just ONE platform. There’s a whole heap of others where your ideal customer might be hanging out [Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, Threads - am looking @ you]. Each of these bad boys [read: platforms] offers unique ways to connect with different audiences.

Get yo’ real marketing move on!

+ p to the s - holler @ to level up your strategy with copy that captivates, a website that wows + email marketing that engages 🥳 🥳

Stop, collaborate, and listen!

Collaborations on IG are hot RN, and it’s something I’ve always banged on about in my consulting sessions. Don’t underestimate the power of tapping into a like-minded business’ audience!

Here’a an example of some@Dynamic Duo businesses collaborating, cross promoting + tap tap tapping into eachother’s audiences…

🌈 Cold pressed Juice + local bottle shop -
anyone for gin + juice?

🌈 Yoga studio + massage studio:
Sweat, stretch, and soak up a massage – the ultimate wellness trifecta.

🌈 Hairdresser + beauty salon /
Both audiences are all obout looking good + feeling good.

🌈 Social media agency [that me!] + photographer
Two diff service based bizzo’s, same target market 👏

🌈 Pet groomer + vet
Pampered pets and top-notch care – a match made in furry heaven.

K, so you get the idea 🥳 Once you found your dynamic duo business here are some powerful partnership marketing ideas:

Joint Competitions - joint comps work a treat. For example, a fitness studio could collaborate with a healthy meal prep service to offer a prize package including workout sessions + meal plans / food.

Cross-Promotional Discounts - offer discounts or special offers to customers who go to both businesses. EG a massage studio can partner with a wellness studio where each studios offer 20% off at each other’s businesses [which can be promoted via social media or email marketing].

VIP Events / experiences - host events or exclusive experiences that are jointly organised by both businesses. This could include private wine tastings, behind-the-scenes tours, or invitation-only workshops where customers can engage with products or services in a more intimate setting. These events can be marketed as premium experiences, enhancing customer loyalty + engagement.

Happy collaborating ✌🏼

🫎 Moosey marketing-y tip 🫎

“When’s the best time to post on Instagram or Facebook?” is the question I alwaysss get asked.

The truth? There’s no one-size-fits-all answer because... your audience is always online - they actually never leave 😂

And also, everyone’s target market is different.

If your audience is mums, they might be scrolling @ night when the kids are in bed or early in the morning. On the flip side, gym enthusiasts could be online bright + early, ready to seize the day [+ their gym class].

The trick? Find your unique sweet spot + keep your followers engaged ✌️
