Me and my girl at the theatre last night 🥰 seeing Annie, our first outing as a pair. One of many I hope as I love the theatre, and I think she may have the bug too. Had to feed her haribo and ice cream in the second half to keep her awake but she made it 😜

👉🏻Soooo news in this week! Meta have announced their rival to twitter….have you signed up to Threads yet, and what are your thoughts? 👇🏻

I’m enjoying it so far although it feels a bit like you’ve arrived at a party and you’re not quite sure where to go and what to say 🤣

No hashtags, so no trending content, and we are reliant on what content the algorithm decides to throw our way, but personally I think it could be a really great way to be ‘seen’ and grow your business (especially as it’s been increasingly difficult on existing platforms of late).

It feels a bit like twitter used to be before it got complex and laden with ads and badges and groups etc… but we shall see.

In the words of Annie, I think I’m gonna like it here. Sorry.

Happy weekend all 💕

Thought this was funny from 😜

Reels are still being pushed by Instagram but it doesn’t have to be looking silly, pointing at random captions and always showing your face, if that’s not you.

They are getting increasingly easier to create as instagram evolves its technology, with templates available and trending audio soon to be easier to find.

Are you creating enough reels in your business?

☎️Get in touch if I can help.

💫 Who you are trying to reach or sell to
💫 What you are the expert in
💫 How to contact you
💫 Your location (if relevant to your business)

Tell me in the comments if you're going to make a little tweak to your bio👇

🎯 GOALS// What do you want out of your social media?

• Brand Awareness?
• Direct people to your website?
• Get more engagement with your current audience?

Whatever your goals are, your strategy needs to be aligned. Your content needs to have the right tone of voice. Are you doing enough 'social selling'? Is your content balanced enough so your current audience remains interested but you are also attracting new customers?

All food for thought! Once you've established your goals, then your content strategy is more likely to fall into place.

➡️ Tell me, what are your social media goals for 2023?

(Mine is to post more regularly to my own socials, not just clients 😆)

Today is NATIONAL OPPOSITE DAY 🤪 Read for social media content tips 👇🏼

Let it bring out the inner rebel in you! It gives you the opportunity to have fun by saying the opposite of what you would usually say. For example -

1. Get your followers to work out what you are saying using the 'opposite code' ie Yes is No...

2. Perfect for any business relating to children as ALL children love opposite day any day of the year 🙃

3. Treat it a bit like April Fool's Day. Announce something on your socials that may not be true (to grab attention) then put what day it is in the comments...

4. Does your business involve something a bit different? Perhaps you are a small fish in a big pond? This is your moment to encourage your audience to try your product or service instead ie do the opposite to what they would usually...

Food for thought this opposite day. Have fun!

Don't forget to share, like, save or comment.

💫 QUICK MONDAY TIP: YOUR BIO 💫

If you want to attract a bigger (and more relevant) audience on your socials, there's one simple thing you should look at today... your Instagram Bio.

People on social media have very short consideration spans and make decisions in a split second. If they can't decide, or it takes too long, they quickly move on. So everything about your social media presence needs to help them quickly get the information they need. Without adding that extra click.

Bearing that in mind, today I'd urge you to make these three checks on your socials today..

✏️ Is a stranger able to land on your socials and know exactly WHAT you do, within seconds?

✏️ Will they know, without doubt, WHO you do it for?

✏️ Is your location relevant to your business? If so, is it in your bio?

If not, make some changes!

Get in touch for help.

Are you losing followers? 😱

DON'T PANIC! It's happening to a lot of accounts at the moment which may mean Instagram are having a mass clean up of those pesky bots...

Focus on -

1. Creating good valuable content
2. Consistent, regular posting
3. Genuine engagement and building relationships

And the followers will come.

#️⃣ HASHTAGS DE-MYSTIFIED// What are the correct amount of Instagram hashtags to use?

Good question!

Instagram themselves recently recommended 3-5 hashtags per post, but the industry collective response to this was quite frankly "what utter rubbish!"

Hashtags are the main way to increase your reach on IG, so we say use your limit of 30 if you want to - but use it wisely!

Make the hashtags-
1. Relevant. There's no point putting if your post is about pets.
2. Balanced. Ensure you get a mix of high and low competition hashtags (ie how many posts of the hashtag there are = if all the hashtags you use have 20 million users, it is unlikely you will feature on the explore tab or show up on people's feeds so use a mix of popular and less popular)

💥 A hashtag strategy is crucial for your business as it's an important part of getting your business seen by new accounts, and by the right accounts!💥

What's your hashtag strategy?

✨ SNACKABLE CONTENT✨

People are becoming online lazy, and social media is becoming busier! Bite-sized content is great to use in order to stop the scroll. No, not content about snacks (although that too!) but content that can be easily digested by the reader and doesn't take up too much of their valuable scrolling time!

Think about sharing more of the following types of content in order to boost your reach and engagement. It's also more likely that it will be shared and saved too..

1. Quote Graphics
2. Memes
3. Infographics
4. Gifs
5. Stories
6. Reels

is a great place to start to get creative - user friendly with lots of ready made templates (like the one I've used here!)

Hope this helps (feel free to share/like/save this post!)

👉🏻 Would any of these be good for your business?
