SOCIAL MEDIA TRENDS FOR 2021💕

2020 was a year thrown off course, everything dominated by COVID-19.

It has shifted our outlook, changed our focus and - for the time being at least - the way we live. (How’s Monday home-schooling going?? It’s a bit calmer here than it was last week, but still pretty tough 😩😬... )

The pandemic has also altered the digital landscape in particular, hastening changes in some areas, expediting issues and ideas that may not have happened so soon.

Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be covering some of the major trends that are being predicted for this year and how small businesses can pick up on these.

❤️Video content
🧡COVID-19 content
💛Social commerce
💚Influencer marketing
💙Customer service on social
💜Shifting demographics

Let me know if you’ve got any questions ⁉️↙️

We’ll be raising our glasses to absent friends tonight and looking forwards with hope in our hearts ❤️

Happy New Year everyone💥💫

🎄🎄 M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S 🎄🎄

2020 you’ve been quite a year! It’s been a tough one but I am also determined to take lots of positives from it. I have learnt a huge amount about myself, about my family, about the world. I have spent quality time with my immediate family and it’s also give me time to think about direction and fulfilment. Here’s to 2021 being better. It’s got to be better, right? ❤️🤞🏻❤️

I’m now heading for the mulled wine and mince pies! Have a safe one and see you next year xoxox 🎅🏼🧑‍🎄🍷🥧

I’ve just popped my away messages on for Facebook and Instagram - is this something you need to do?

It’s a good idea if you’re not going to be answering messages over the Christmas period. Here’s how to do it...

❌Head to Facebook and go to your business page.
❌Tap Inbox at the top of your Page.
❌In the left menu, click the message tab 💬 and then
❌ Tap Automated responses (at the bottom of the list).

You have the option of an Instant reply or an Away message, whichever is best for you.

You can choose which platforms you’d like the messages to go to and even times you want them switched on. Outside of holidays you might want Instant replies to be switched on in the evenings and/or at weekends for example.

A sample message comes up but you can edit it to say exactly what you want ❤️

A preview will pop up on the right hand side showing you what your message will look like.

➰Follow loops on Instagram ➰

No! No! No! Don’t use them! Here are some reasons why...

🔁 Follow loops, ‘engagement groups’, whatever you want to call them, actually go against Instagram’s terms of use and they have been known to shut accounts down for taking part in them.

🔁 They can actually kill you engagement and will most certainly do so in the long term as the other members in the group lose interest.

🔁 Be aware that you may be aligning inadvertently with values that don’t match your own. And that is a wasps nest you really could do without.

🔁 You may not be paying money to be in a loop but you are obliged to spend time on accounts other than yours. Much better to spend time creating your own content to grow an engaged audience.

Have you been approached about getting involved in a loop? Have you used follow loops or been tempted? I’d love to hear your experience x

🌟TIPS FOR CHRISTMAS SELLING🌟

We’re hitting December tomorrow which means there are still 24 days of shopping left - here are a few tips to make sure you’re ship shopping shape.

ON FACEBOOK you can

🎁 Add text to your Facebook header which has any important info on it such as opening times, last order dates, special offers and discount codes.

🎁🎁 Create a post with that and any other important info and pin it to the top of your feed.

🎁🎁🎁 Feature customer stories and user generated content in your posts. UCG is particularly good at encouraging sales as customers trust reviews 12x more than marketing that comes directly from the brand itself.

🎁🎁🎁🎁 When you get tagged in posts ask if you can share them on your own profiles.

🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁 Don’t forget Facebook Stories!

🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁 Set up your Facebook catalogue so you can sell directly. Also, ‘enhance’ all the entries where possible by adding as much information as you can, eg pattern, style, colour etc.

ON INSTAGRAM:

🎄Update your bio with important information such as opening times, last order dates, special offers and discount codes.

🎄🎄Create a gift guide. This new feature is available to everyone, it’s brilliant and hugely versatile. If you’re selling gifts, it’s great for collating items into categories for example. You can still use it if you’re offering a service, you can offer ideas for great gifts relating (or not!) to your sector or location. Guides are really quick and easy to set up. If you don’t already have Guides you can create one by going to mine, or anyone else’s - at the end of the Guide you’ll see the ‘Create Guide’ button.

🎄🎄🎄And don’t be afraid to sell, sell, sell! Everyone is looking for gifts right now.

🎄🎄🎄🎄And of course if you are selling physical goods, do set up your Instagram Shop. The process is made all the easier if you already have a Facebook catalogue or a Shopify website.

Let’s get December sorted and wave this year goodbye! It’s time for my round up of awareness days and events for December 2020.

It’s a mix up of the obvious ones and some fairly random ones! Have you seen, there’s a !!

I hope this little gift from me to you gets you inspired and helps fill any gaps in your content plan this month.

Which ones are you eyeing up? ❤️🎅🏼🎄

🌟INSTAGRAM GUIDES 🌟

Instagram is going update crazy at the moment. It is in the process of rolling out yet another type of content to everyone called Guides. Have you got it yet?

That takes the number of content types on Instagram to six. SIX!!

📍Grid
📍IGTV
📍Stories
📍Reels
📍Lives
📍Guides

🌟 What is Guides, I hear you ask?

It’s a new way to share content which allows users to follow a curated flow of posts with commentary — which is great for step-by-step guides, tips, and recommendations. They can include content from multiple Instagram users.

And listen up IG shop owners - this is potentially huge for you. Products can be included in Guides and the more Guides your products are featured in, the more people will find you. So if you sell physical products and don’t have an IG shop, you need to get one!

🌟 Where do you find Guides?

They sit on the profile page and are identified by an icon on the feed tab. See the second pic 👆🏻Have a snoop and see how people are using them.

I don’t have Guides myself yet but when I do I’ll post more info in here.

🌟 Do you think this will be a useful feature for your business?

I am floating on air right now (and definitely was last night after a few celebratory drinks ☺️🥳)

I’ve done it! I am now trained in Facebook and Instagram advertising 💜🙌🏻

For the last eight weeks I’ve been immersed in the wonderful world of ads with the amazing and . They and their team couldn’t have been more encouraging and supportive. Honestly, it is one of the best run courses I’ve done, big up to 🎉🎉 and their Facebook Ads Academy.

If you’re finding Facebook and Instagram advertising tricky to navigate, you’re not getting the results you were hoping for or are thinking of doing some advertising in the near future, send me a DM or message here ⬇️

What are you waiting for?

Happy World Kindness Day 🌈❤️🌟

I’m doing my Christmas shopping list just now and really want to support small businesses this year more than ever.

I’m looking at local producers, most of whom are still taking orders for contactless delivery or click and collect. My current fave Peak District gift destinations are all still fulfilling orders. Check out their goodies!
Chalet at Home
Homeward Interiors
Zuzana Marekova
Ag Gallery
Scarthin Books
There are so many ❤️🧡💛

I’ve also been getting excited about online events such as as Craft Festival which takes place 27-29th November with workshops and make-a-longs as well as the ability to buy from makers.

Happy shopping 💕🛍. Let me what you discover!
