Wow! ๐
Loving seeing the organic figures on some clients accounts this month so far! After an amazing morning spent with a fantastic Peer to Peer group through Yorkshire in Business, I sat down with a cuppa and had a quick look at some page insights and I love seeing those positive percentages!
Posting, sharing and interactions all encourages organic reach and growth. Having an organic based following means the people you are talking to have a real intrest in your business and what you have to say, it's about quality not quantity. ๐

They seem to have been out in force over the weekend...๐
Anyone else had notifications/messages?
The easiest way to spot if it is real or fake is -
๐ง Is there a profile picture?
๐ง Dose the link contain random words/letters?
๐ง Is the spelling and punctuation right?
๐ง If it's a notification from an account, when was the account set up? And does it have any followers/likes?
๐จ DON'T CLICK THE LINK!!!
The best thing to do is
๐ซ BLOCK
โ๏ธ DELETE
๐ฉ REPORT
๐ MARK AS SPAM
Here is an example of just 2 I have had this weekend ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
***Also note I haven't used the word 'S@&M' in my body of text because that can also attract more!

Sorry it's been a while since posting, I have been busy working away in the background and working with a wonderful local businesses and seeing some AMAZING results!
Here's the bit I know most small business owners (or possibly people in general) will relate to, I had a crisis of social media identity...how ridiculous right, it's what I do!!!
BUT self promotion cripples me like a lot of other business owners I know what I have to offer is worthy and if I was talking to a client I'd be like 'You have so much to offer, it's amazing! Let's shout about it!'
Yet when it come to myself the self doubt takes over and I overthink it all!
Yesterday I attended Yorkshire in Business networking and it really gave me a kick up the bum! I had a lovely time talking to some of the attendees and they were interested in ME and what I had to say and how I was doing!
So no more hiding (unless it's behind my very cute puppy...who of course has her own Instagram account, because it's what I do!) and getting back to giving small businesses helpful, simple hints and tips for your social media!
โจ๏ธ Today's Tip โจ๏ธ
Keeping it real and telling your story makes you relatable, people buy from people!

If you have what's your thoughts?
I thought it was easy to set up and nice it pulled the information and followers from Instagram. Seemed easy to post and reply, but it seems like finding people outside of your current connection could take time to find and it doesn't currently use/recognise hashtags to assist in finding aligned/common subjects/topics.
Overall I think it has potential but maybe needs a little more development before it can reach it's full optimisation.

Being in business you get so much advice from so many different people.
You often hear 'No that's not right i'd do it this...' or information that contradicts other information.
I have come to the conclusion there is no wrong and right because if there was EVERYONE would be doing the 'right' thing!
It's the same with Marketing and Social Media if there was a formula that worked then everyone would be doing it!
Everyone and every business is different, so it's finding what works best for you.
Yes there are certain things that can help you and certain analytics which can guide you, but these will change overtime, so it is important you monitor and assess what is working and what isn't working for you regularly!

This weekend marks the end of UK BBQ WEEK, could you create a post about it?
Doesn't have to be anything complicated, here are a few quick and easy suggestions which will also encourage engagement -
๐ Run a poll - 'Sausages Vs. Burgers'
๐ 'What's the prefect burger topping?'
๐ธ 'Have you had a Bbq this week/Are you having one this weekend? Post a picture below'
Also I have included a snapshot of the top used on Instagram for food posts!
Using awareness 'Days/Weeks' is a great way to create quick affect content.
Don't forget to include your option on your posts, customers LOVE to know more about you and your business -

Consistency!
You will probably of heard this before, but being consistent with your social media is so important!
Regularly posting keeps the algorithm happy. Think about it as if you are feeding your pet, if you feed it regularly and consistently you will keep it happy and healthy. It will then in turn respond to you and reward you back.
If you stop feeding your pet or feed it just every now and then it's going to fade away.
Feed the algorithm, once, twice, 3 times a week or however many times you choice to post but keep it consistent week after week!
If you would like help with creating consistent content get in touch today!
