Top 2022 Social Media Marketing Tips
1. Social Sharing Strategy
Get more of your website visitors to share your content. This ensures that your sharing is very visible to all users when browsing through your blog posts, it works really well on mobile and allows you to share the images used for different social networks. and allows customizing the text.
2. Don't be afraid to pay for social advertising
Most people view social media as a pure organic game, but I am using it as a paid marketing channel more and more often. I've tested paid ads on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms.
They all have their strengths and weaknesses, but if I were to give one tip to people who use social media, it would be this – don't be afraid to pay for social media reach and clicks. It is often a good investment!
3. Make Video Part of Your Content Strategy
If you're using social advertising on Facebook, especially for a local or B2C market, make sure video is part of your content strategy. In our experience, video ads drive maximum engagement on Facebook and it's easy to create a video or moving image slideshow using Facebook's own advertising tools.
4. Integrated Social Inbox
Once your social media marketing starts gaining traction, managing your accounts is going to take a significant amount of time. And this is only extended if you are managing social accounts for customers. This means it is important to save time wherever possible.
One of the biggest time savers I've found is to use a device with a unified social inbox. Earlier, I used to use a tool that only had streams. So I'll have to spend 5-10 minutes figuring out where I'll reach whenever I sit down to go through @names etc. And it only got more difficult when I had to manage social from my mobile.
5. Stick to the Fundamentals
Facebook, the leading social media platform, is leading the way in an effort to be more transparent with advertisers. Recently, it changed the way bidding is done and gave advertisers more control than ever before. The "secret strategy" is becoming less and less important - while the core principles of marketing - the message and positioning are as important as ever.
I am excited about the future. I believe that marketers who use fancy tools and pretend they know marketing will be kicked out, while those who are grounded in fundamentals will thrive on social media.
6. Take Advantage of Ad Targeting
Social media is becoming a more crowded space, making it more difficult for most businesses to capture the attention of their ideal customer, with little to no engagement with them. This is especially true for B2B companies that may not be as sexy as B2C firms.
However, with the maturing of social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, they have become much better at understanding who your ideal customer is, and how to get your message across. However, it comes at a cost: advertising.
While all companies must continue to publish organic content on platforms where their customers "hangout," the way these platforms capitalize on is through targeted ads that drive people from social platforms to your website or landing page. Huh. And don't be afraid to spend some advertising dollars to drive traffic to your content -- like a blog post or podcast episode -- too. Facebook especially likes ads that provide value to its users.
7. Continuous Production of Video Content
Create consistent video content across all your social media channels. In 2017, video content will represent 74% of all Internet traffic. With Snapchat users watching over 10 billion videos per day and Facebook users watching an additional 8 billion, you're already far behind the competition if you're not creating videos consistently across all of your social media platforms. Focus on creating content that aligns with your customer journey and considers content promotion. The more users who build a relationship with your brand, the more engagement, and followers you'll eventually get.
8. Focus on Relationships
The life of social media is people. People like you and me. People who laugh, cry, go crazy, go crazy, get married, get divorced, have kids, lose family members, win jobs, lose jobs, get promotions, win new customers, get new opportunities, have fun, work hard and work hard.
Provide value to people in your community with the goal of making real connections. Provide value and knowledge. Inspire your communities to engage with you with the fundamental goal of achieving their objectives. It's all about them and not you.

10. Start with Strategy
All the best things online start with building an offline strategy. To start, I recommend my clients and students alike to step away from the social platform – be it Instagram, Facebook or their blog – and ask yourself 3 questions, in this order:
Why am I in this business? It's important to start with this because we often forget the real answer. And hint, hint - money is never the real answer.
Who is my product/service for? The answer should be as specific as possible. If you serve different types of audiences, you need to create a profile for each. This profile should not only include demographic data such as gender, age, and location, but also interests, hobbies, clothing brands, etc. This will allow you to clearly envision your ideal customer(s), establish which social platforms to reach them, and curate content to which they will respond best.
How does my product/service solve the problem of my ideal customer? This is a two-part question because you must first establish the pain points your customers are experiencing. Then, you describe how your product or service solves those pain points.
These 3 questions are the start of building a strategy that will allow you to move on to goals, branding, and lead generation through social media. Companies that do not perform this important offline task run the risk of wasting time and money online.
