🚨🚨🚨🚨Did you know there are BANNED hashtags on Instagram??
‼️If these are used on your profile, they could affect your reach - specifically your non-followers reach‼️‼️‼️
😳There isn't a cohesive list (provided by Instagram) of which hashtags are banned but here's an easy way to make sure you are not unknowingly, hurting your reach:
•Consistently check your hashtags to ensure that they have not been banned. 💻If they are banned, a message will display when searched saying "Recent posts for #hashtag are hidden because some posts may not follow Instagram's Community Guidelines"
•Use specific hashtags based on your ideal client style and your location📍to avoid general hashtags (general hashtags tend to find themselves banned - too many people, good and bad, using it-)
🙊BUT don't freak out. Just make sure you are doing your homework and stay away from silly hashtags like
"kissing" & "love"!
Google is a great resource for looking at which ones are NOT to be used and keeping updated with what's banned! If you are putting in the effort and following strategies, you won't have to worry about this at all! 👏👏👏👏

It is ALL important!😅 Your bio, grid aesthetic, captions, mix of reels and posts, stories, highlights, profile picture, info in your link, name of your page.... ALL of it!
🤓But for today - start with your highlights!
Highlights are one of the 1st elements of your profile that 🎊 pop-out, especially to new visitors! Not only should they make a visual statement, but also contain helpful, entertaining information to encompass all sides of your brand. 👏
🫣Your audience should be able to find relevant information about your product/service and company, without being overwhelmed with stories from a trip to Cancun 124 weeks ago.🥴
Check out some of our favorite ideas below! 💕
🌟Product/Service features - Try sharing a tutorial, a guide, or focus on certain features of your product/ service. Find fun ways to share the best of your product!
🌟Share your company story or introduce yourself - We love to know who we are purchasing from! Think about it from the customers point of you! What would you need to see to be able to trust someone before making a purchase?
🌟Showcase FAQ's - The last thing we want is to make someone feel like they don't understand our brand, especially if they are feeling shy to ask questions! So take the time to answer those for your customers!
🌟Start a series - Series are a great way to stay consistent on your socials! Employee takeover series, get to know me series - there are about a million different series opportunities!
🌟Recent offers - Showcasing your current offers are a great way to keep your highlight relevant and they are a perfect resource for a potential customer to look back through if they are still contemplating the details for purchasing.
🙏😁A good golden rule is to optimize your highlights about every four weeks! Happy posting! 🥳

👀 I will not stop saying it...👀
There are definitely benefits to spending less time on social media, but today I want to tell you about some of the major benefits for YOUR WEDDING BUSINESS when you spend MORE TIME on social media!
✔️Increased brand awareness�✔️Higher conversion rates
✔️Improved search engine rankings
✔️More inbound traffic�✔️Increased brand loyalty
✔️Increased reliability/trust
Instagram can tell when you only go into the app to post something and it picks up on that when you don't spend time engaging with others!
You have to be consistent and dedicate the time to being present and active on your profile! 💯 If you're thinking, "This is great but I just don't have the time!"
Don't worry, V Savvy has got you covered!! Message us to inquire about our services🥰

Why is social media so important for wedding professionals? Because as a wedding pro, you are aiming to reach a specific type of market. 👏👏💍
Your market is not the typical person scrolling online looking for inspiration for their summer vacation🌴or living room renovation or the solution to their unorganized kitchen🍴 cabinets.... They are the couples 🥰 that are recently engaged and are looking for the
right team of vendors to make magic happen!
That is pretty specific. So, the things that you should be doing on social media, in your blogs, and across your website, 💻 should be helping you to get in front of those couples!

It’s time to develop a content creation system for your wedding vendor business! 👰♀️💍
Build a system that will work in this busy season and with your current schedule! This is a weekly or monthly system that you will follow each time you are ready to plan, edit future posts, blogs, reels, pins, etc.
🗓️Make sure you leave room in your calendar to plan, create/film, edit, and schedule (if necessary).
📈 This will streamline your process and in turn, create more efficiency in the amount and the quality of wedding goodness you share!
There couldn’t be a better time to dive right in than 2023! 👀

😁It's basically a given that time blocking isn't going to guarantee your week is flawless ✨and that everything gets done.
👏BUT - giving yourself a little outline and marking the big "do or die" items, is such a great start to making sure your week goes as seamlessly as possible!
A few other things to keep in mind:👇
Buffer time - It took me a while to accurately leave enough buffer time between things.⏰ Allowing myself enough time for things like lunch, unexpected phone calls, 👀editing my to do list, travel time, and of course those unexpected glitches!😳
⏱️Try estimating how much time things will take instead of setting unrealistic expectations. If you know you are just making progress on a lengthy project, check out the next step!
⏲️Setting timers! Using an hour glass⏳to help me know when to move on from a project has been life changing! - (Cute ones on Amazon!)
🗓️Time block using a calendar app. I use "One Calendar" - it lives right on the Home Screen of 📲my phone and allows me to see all work things and personal things in one place so that I can't miss anything. 🥳🥳🥳

Answer? 👉Because you skipped a HUGE step. 👀
Before doing any of those things - you need to make sure you are following proper SEO practices in these blogs! ✨
😎Before they are published, make sure you are good to go.
👏Before you click share on a social post, make sure you are using those keywords in your content here, too!
Before you repurpose anything to another platform, make sure you have set your work up to succeed!
👀Because if you don’t… then you wasted your time and effort. Because without SEO keywords, your blog is just a journal entry.
What is SEO? 🤔
SEO or search engine optimization is vital to get more eyes on your blog content! 👀
To utilize it, you want to take your knowledge of the wedding industry and the ideal couple you are marketing toward. Then, predict what you think they will be searching for 🔍 when wedding planning! Adapt the keywords 🔑 in your blog accordingly and see your platform soar!
Creating content (not just blogs) around those keywords and topics will rank you higher in searches!
Another reminder of why knowing your niche couple and immersing yourself in that world is SO important!! 🚨
#marketingforweddingprofessionals #socialmedia #socialmediamarketing #bloggingtips #blogging #marketingforweddingphotographers #IGtips #instagramforbusiness #marketingforweddingplanners #marketingforweddingpros #marketingforweddingvendors #weddingmarketing #digitalmarketing
Tip one:
Look back at the content you’ve shared in the past three months (IG insights for the win)📲 You will see which style of content you shared, performed the best!
•Maybe behind the scenes
•Maybe lifestyle posts/stories
•Maybe pretty reels with gorgeous wedding pictures
•Any of the above are great - as long as you are tracking what does the best and what is bringing you the most traction and success.
Now, DO IT AGAIN. These previous posts that did so well, are your playbook for future content. BOOM! 💥
Tip two:
Using your location to reach new people is such a great tool especially if your business is locally based.📍
If someone is typing in “Raleigh wedding venues” and you have “Raleigh wedding venue” in your bio or in your posts… IG is going to realize that you could be what they are looking for! 🤩
Tip 3:
Putting Hashtags and Keywords into your page and posts helps Instagram know WHO to show your content to! ✨
So how do you get on the explore page? The more engagement you get on your posts, the more likely you are to appear on the explore page!
I hate to sound like a broken record along with everyone else on this app but more reels = more reach. We all know it. 🫡

Posting blogs, are you??
👏👏👏👏👏
Great!! BUT - are you posting those with SEO keywords that will help your ideal client find you?
😳What is SEO? 🤔
SEO, or search engine optimization, helps you get more eyes on your content!👀
To utilize it, you want to use the knowledge you already have of your target 🎯 audience and predict what you think they will be searching for 🔍. Adapt your keywords 🔑 accordingly to what those searches are.
Creating content around those keywords 🔑 and topics will rank you higher in searches.
And this is why knowing your niche keywords 🔑 is important!! 🚨
👏Blogs are fantastic and I honestly view them as a MUST!
However, they are just time and effort wasted in you aren’t putting SEO into them to make sure that they are serving you! ✨✨

Ohhh, consistency….😬
Sounds so simple but can be one the hardest things to stick to (and that goes for all aspects of life)😅
The idea of consistency is simple AND effective so… why can’t we just do it? Well, it’s not going to happen without a plan! 😎Thankfully, there are MANY apps/software that are created specifically for this purpose👏
These include: Planoly, Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, Zoho Social, Loomly, & many more!📱
These tools can be used for streamlined planning, scheduling, & some will even post for you while you take a much needed vacation after the busyness of the holiday/engagement season and looming inquiries from said engagements…🙄
So, do your research and get going!! Once you’ve got consistency down, deciding which content to produce can be easier than it seems… we’ll talk about that soon! 🥳

Wedding pros can definitely relate to this… 😂😅
We all know that the industry is based on emotions. After all, getting married is something you do when there are tons of emotions involved!
👉Being able to relate to your clients on an emotional level is so important. Your clients will choose your company based on a connection where they feel like they can trust you. They feel confident that the value of your work is going to show up on the day of their wedding! 👏
We do that here, at V Savvy, because we also want our clients to know how much we care🥰 The growth of their business is what fuels our passion and creativity!
Are you showing how much you care for your clients in your business? If so, send THIS post to my DMs and I will send you one customized tip that will be beneficial for your business!
