I’ll say it again for the people in the back: KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE.

Businesses are always asking me which social media platform they should use, and my first question to them is: Who is your audience?

Knowing who your audience will help you narrow down which platforms to be on and how to craft your messaging to better connect and build relationships in all of your marketing! And this is the FIRST thing we go over when you get started in The Simplified Social. We narrow down YOUR ideal audience and YOUR point of difference!

If you have gotten this pop up on Facebook, do not stress! Facebook Protect is essentially a security feature aimed at users who might be at higher risk of hacking attempts, like public figures, people with a large online following or associated with a business page. What it does is pretty straightforward – it helps enhance your account's security settings, encouraging you to enable two-factor authentication, which significantly ups your defense against unauthorized access.

So go ahead and click next and set that up!

Now, if you get an email from Facebook about activating Facebook Protect, it's crucial to verify it's genuinely from [email protected]. Facebook wouldn't ask for your password or send you dubious links through these communications. Always be cautious and check the sender's email address if you receive such a notification.

Even if you haven't been prompted to activate Facebook Protect, it doesn't mean you can't improve your account's security on your own. Setting up two-factor authentication is a always wise move!

REMINDER: Put YOUR face in your content! 🤳 Why, you ask?

Because people love connecting with real, breathing humans, not faceless brands. Seeing the amazing people behind the business builds trust, adds a personal touch, and makes your audience feel like they're part of your story.

Plus, it humanizes your brand, making it relatable and unforgettable. Whether it's a behind-the-scenes look, a team member spotlight, or just a friendly hello, your face can turn casual viewers into loyal fans.

Let's debunk some social media myths...👇 my favorite is at the end of this post.

More followers don't always mean more success.
Thinking more followers equals more sales? Think again. Having 100 engaged followers is way more valuable than 10,000 who don't truly connect with your brand.

Posting more doesn't guarantee better results.
Just because you're posting a lot doesn't automatically make your content high-quality. Remember, it's about quality over quantity.

Success isn't an overnight story.
Seeing those "overnight success" stories? Growth is a unique journey for everyone and requires dedication. It doesn't just happen overnight.

And finally, that all business owners or sales reps are naturally good at social media.
If you are comparing your social media to another person in your industry who has a killer social media, remember they were not ALWAYS that way! They have probably spent time learning how to do so, spent money on programs to help them, or maybe they even hired a social media agency! So do not think you are just supposed to have this creative social gene!

If you need help and support with your social media game, I am here to help!

Does anyone else sit down to create content and gets wayyy to many ideas! I could write a long post about this, or an infographic about this, or I could use a picture of this but what would the caption be - AH!

Now I do have a running list in my task management system of post ideas I come up with, but sometimes I just need to brain dump everything on a piece of paper. While I know we are in this digital age, sometimes it makes all the difference physically writing things down, highlighting them, and thennnnn throwing them into my digital systems.

Yes the old-school journalist in me still defaults to pen and paper sometimes :)
