🎻 Feeling Overwhelmed by Social Media Planning? 😰 Let's break it down into manageable steps!
Here’s how to streamline your process:
1️⃣ Revisit Your Mission & Goals: Ensure they’re still aligned with your current path. 🎯
2️⃣ Mark Important Dates: Take out your calendar and highlight key events and deadlines. 🗓️
3️⃣ Establish Your Content Pillars: Define the core topics that represent your brand. 🎶
4️⃣ Craft a Content Strategy: Decide what content you want to create and share. ✍️
5️⃣ Schedule Everything: Plug your content ideas and dates into your calendar. ⏰
6️⃣ Execute the Plan: Follow through with confidence—consistency is key! 💪
Our mission is to help artists gain more visibility ON social media to create more visibility FOR the Arts! 🎨🎭🎶🎻🩰What starts as a small seed with enough persistence & nurturing can grow into a forest 🌳This is how you start.
Are you over-obsessing over your photos and videos? Finding yourself stuck in this land of forever nitpicking? AND feeling like none of it is good enough to post?
We see you. And we’re telling you to KNOCK IT OFF. (In a best-friend-we-love-you-and-only-want-the-best-for-you-sort-of way 😘)
Somewhere along the way, we were taught that promoting ourselves was not okay. And along that same way, we were ALSO taught that if we weren’t perfect, we were not worth any value.
And we are here to say that NONE OF THIS IS TRUE.
We hate to break this shocking bit of news to you, but no one is perfect. If anyone expects sheer perfection from you here on social media, then we can confidently say that they can choose to unfollow. *Click* And we would advise you to say “Bye Feliciaaaa”.
We firmly believe in surrounding ourselves with people who uplift, support, love and cherish people for what and who they are - RIGHT NOW, in this very moment. In real life, and in social media. No one has time to be agonizing over what to post and what not to post, giving the “what-ifs” far too much weight.

Trust us when we say it has taken us LOTS of bloopers to be able set up a phone, hit record, knock out a few reels, and move on. 🎥If you feel awkward making videos where you address the camera directly, TRY THIS: 👇🏼✨Start with B-roll videos of yourself so you get used to the camera being there✨Make videos you don't plan to post - almost like a video diary (you might end up with usable content!)✨Practice on your stories where things are much less permanent and much more informal✨Keep videos short and sweet - expand on the topic in your caption to encourage longer engagement time for reading AND include SEO terms in your post

Looking for some classical music audio for the remainder of the summer to use over the awesome B-roll content you took?
💥Ta-daaaaa💥
Yes, yes, you should definitely use some trending audio to try and reach new audiences IF it feels right to you and your brand.
You should also use audio that YOU connect with and maybe the new audiences that you reach will fall in love with:
✨ This music
✨ Your passion for it
✨ Your artistic journey
The point is, following trends can most definitely help your reach, BUT...
👉🏻 Creating content that resonates with you will also most likely resonate with others, and THAT can also become a trend.
You can choose to do one, You can choose to do the other. You can choose to do both. Just make sure you're making a choice.😅
Mkay byeeee
Xoxo,

💥It’s time to start thinking of social media as a place for community building💥
✅ It’s time to share content that shows your true self!
👉🏼 It’s who you really are that gives audiences a reason to be personally invested in your artistic journey.
✅ It’s time to engage with your community!
👉🏼 If you’re throwing content onto these platforms without supporting your community and responding to your followers, you are missing out on a massive opportunity for connection.
✅ It’s time to focus on the journey and not the outcome!
👉🏼 How👏🏼 Many👏🏼 Times👏🏼 Have you heard this about being an artist? Well we’re saying it again!

Always use subtitles in your reels and stories!
SA: Always use subtitles in your STORIES & REELS.
📈 Approximately 50% of Americans use subtitles. And the percentage goes up with younger generations (we're looking at you Gen Z).
Here are some reasons why users are turning on subtitles:
📌 People watch videos in public (thus putting things on silent or low volume)
📌 Muddled audio
📌 Learning a different language or watching content in a different language
📌 Helps them to focus more on what they are watching
And let's not forget why they were integrated in the first place - so we don't exclude those who cannot hear our content 💗
Always post your photos on IG in portrait mode! The reason for this is simple👇🏼✅ Portrait photos take up more space on a phone's screen ✅ engage the user’s eye for longer ✅ keep them on the platform longer and what does this mean❔🧐🔎 Users are looking at YOUR CONTENT longer, thus triggering the algorithm to rank it higher. You're welcome 🤗 Now STOP 👏🏼 POSTING 👏🏼 SQUARE 👏🏼 PHOTOS 👏🏼kthxbyeeee
