5 Ways To Get Off The Social Media Slump And Build Fan Engagement In 2023

There is no better time than now to get your marketing strategy in order for 2022. It's a fresh new year, and you have the opportunity to start with a clean slate. From creating an updated brand identity to developing new sales tactics, here are some simple tips that will help ensure your business continues thriving throughout the year:

Keep it simple.

In the same way that a simple logo can make your brand stand out, keeping your marketing efforts simple can ensure that the message you want to convey stays consistent.

Use a single color scheme throughout all of your materials, whether it's on social media or in printed materials. Use one font for all of the text in your emails and online advertisements. Choose one social media management tool and use it exclusively (at least at first). The more streamlined your approach, the clearer it becomes what you stand for as a business—and that helps customers remember you when they're ready to buy!

Build trust through transparency, authenticity, honesty and integrity.

Building trust is a key component to any successful marketing strategy. The best way to build trust is through transparency, authenticity, honesty and integrity. Remember that your customers are people, not numbers or statistics on a spreadsheet. You can create content aimed at them as individuals with their own unique stories, preferences and challenges. Be honest about your brand and its strengths and weaknesses, but don't be afraid to admit when you have made mistakes as well!

Be consistent.

There's a lot of advice out there about the right amount of posts per day, week, or month for your business. But you need to consider what works for your own audience and brand.

Instagram 2-3 times a week.

Facebook 3-7 times a week.

Twitter 2-3 times a day, so 14-21 times per week.

If you post too often, followers may become annoyed by all the content in their feed and stop engaging with it. If you post too infrequently, people will forget about you altogether. The best way to find out how often is right for your business is by doing some A/B testing or experimenting with different posting frequencies until you find one that really resonates well with your audience (and also doesn't irritate them).

Be yourself.

If you’re going to be successful in 2023, your marketing strategy needs to be as authentic and transparent as possible. Your business is an extension of who you are and what makes you unique. That’s why it's so important that the message you put out there reflects those core values.

Be yourself: Don’t try to imitate someone else or follow trends that aren't genuine just because everyone else is doing them. Keep in mind “if it ain't broke don't fix it”—if a strategy has worked well for you in the past, then continue with it as long as it still feels authentic and resonates with your audience!

Invest in your brand!

Your brand is your most valuable asset. What's a brand? It's the way you're perceived in the marketplace, and it's what people think of when they think of you. If you're putting all your time and energy into marketing your product or service, then it's time to put some effort into building your brand as well! Here are some things that will help:

• Create a consistent look and feel for all of your materials—the website, brochures, business cards, etc.—so that everything looks like it comes from one place. This makes it easy for people who support your company to find information about any aspect of who you are online or in person at events.

• Use stories as part of your outreach strategy; these can be written or told orally by employees with great communication skills (and there should be at least one such person on staff). Stories help humanize businesses by creating emotional connections between customers/clients/supporters and organizations like yours through relatable experiences shared by others who identify with those involved in each story being told."

Remember that the best marketing is a good product, and a good product will sell itself. In order to get people excited about your product, you need to know your audience and speak directly to them. Looking to remove social media management from your plate? Shoot us an email today!
