Your Social Media Strategy is a behind the scenes tool for managing your social accounts effectively.

Who is your target audience? What are your goals? What content resonates with your audience? How will you measure success? These are all important questions to ask yourself.

Do you have a posting strategy, or a social media plan? Or is it more fly by the seat of your pants?

Do you ever find yourself posting regularly for a few weeks, and then when the busy season comes, your socials go silent?

A consistent social media strategy and posting schedule can help, and save you time. And if you are ready to outsource - even a portion of your social media strategy - a Social Media Manager can be a valuable asset.

Why do you need a Social Media Strategy?

✔️ Direct Access to Potential Customers
✔️ Brand Awareness
✔️ Customer Engagement & Retention
✔️ Reach a Targeted Demographic

This was a fun project we worked on at the end of 2023.

Lakefield Youth Unlimited was looking for a t-shirt design that represented Lakefield and also incorporated their brand.

The result was this image which they had printed on grey t-shirts for LYU staff and volunteers.

We love how it looks! What do you think?

When Facebook and Instagram were down on Tuesday, many people were unable to sign in to their accounts, and the apps were not recognizing correct passwords.

If you thought your account had been hacked, or that you'd lost access to your followers, you're not alone. Many users have shared that their hearts sunk when their password wasn't recognized.

It turned out to be an error on Meta's end, and in fact the accounts were secure.

But if you're a small business owner who relies on social media to connect with customers and make an income, you may have had a moment of panic.

The good news is, there are things you can do to keep your social media accounts secure:

1. Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication is a security feature that adds an extra step to the usual process of logging into an account. Instead of just entering your password, you also need to provide a second piece of information, typically a code sent to your phone or generated by a specialized app. You may have come across this feature while logging into online banking or the CRA website. This extra layer of security makes it more difficult for unauthorized users to access your accounts, even if they have your password.

2. Update Passwords Regularly

Regularly update your passwords and avoid using easy to guess information, such as birthdays, a pet's name, or common words. To create a secure password, use a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Longer passwords are typically better, try to use at least 12 characters. Create a unique password for each account, and consider using a password manager for added security.

3. Be Cautious

Be cautious of third-party apps and links. Avoid clicking on suspicious or unsolicited links, especially those from unknown sources. It's crucial to prioritize caution to protect your social media accounts from phishing attempts and malware. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
