Erm hello? I’m great and giving advice on how to make your social media work for your business, I’m so great that I forget to do said advice myself 😂

Even though I’ve been busy with clients and not managed to post, here’s what I have done:

1. Made sure I posted stories
2. Continued to spend time engaging with other posts
3. Responded to other people’s stories

Even when I wasn’t posting I was still present.

So this is your reminder to just post that story and engage with other accounts even if you can’t post:

It’s hard to be present on social media at the moment as the world is crazy.

Plot twist: social media doesn’t have to run your life.

business owners — a clear content plan + smart social media management = more leads, less posting.

DM me if you’re done doing it all yourself.

Ok maybe talking analytics isn't everyone's favourite topic, however it is a really important one. How do you if the posts you are posting are working? Like, comments and shares are a obviously an indicator but one thing I always say is to also look and reach & impressions.

Reach tells you how many unique users were served your content and is important to increase your brand awareness. Impressions are often higher than reach and thats a good sign as it shows your audience is viewing your content multiple times.

Let me know if you use your insights. Does this drive what you post?

I posted this on Instagram but feel it’s relevant here too. If you’re focused on the algorithm then your not focused on your audience and they are the ones you should be focusing your content on.

Mixing up your feed is a great way at keeping things new and entertaining for your followers. The types of posts you create, whether thats an image or a video allows you creative reign and you can see what your followers engage with the most. What works for one business, won't necessarily work for an other, so just because your competitor likes to create posts with their face present, you don't have to do that as well if it's not something you feel comfortable doing.

To gain loyal followers, it's important to create personal posts along with your usual ones, such as a behind the scenes video, a post discussing how your business started, or even just an insight into what you do. A personal post doesn't always mean showing your face! Taking a screen recording, or even writing a caption about yourself, work just as well an are useful in helping to spice up your feed.

How do you like to engage with your followers?

We all have moments where we wonder what more we could be doing with our social media, right? Whether you feel stuck on a particular problem, or perhaps have lost all of your confidence and feel completely stuck, I am here to help! Helping small businesses to achieve their goals and more has always been a passion of mine, and throughout my years as a social media manager, I've had many people come to me with all sorts of problems, but if there's one thing I've learnt, it's that there is always a solution.

I offer monthly consultations, designed to work around your schedule and focus on those areas you feel most lost with. Perhaps you're looking for someone to guide you with your social media posts, or keep track of your audience insights and analytics. Whatever the reason, the great thing about this being a monthly consultation is that it is flexible to your changing needs and can adapt to help you as and when you need it.

Do you ever feel stuck with your social media? What's your biggest social media struggle?

Ok, I have to admit it I've been really rubbish on here. I've not posted much and I've neglected you. I've been busy making reels on Instagram and forgotten about my page 😬 So I thought I'd post something just for Facebook, not repost from Instagram but something just for you.

The big question being is FB going to punish me and not show this post to anyone 😬. Don't punish me Facebook, I'm so sorry!

If anyone is out there drop me a emoji just so I know that someone has seen this! 🤣

Designed to be an hour long, a power hour will focus on your main areas of concern, as well as giving you the tools at the end to take charge again of your socials.
