S3E3 – How to Master Social Media: Focus on ONE Channel
Newsletter 👉 https://a-newsletter-on-marketing.beehiiv.com/
Watch on YouTube 👉 https://youtu.be/BQPeGjpkQWQ
It's 2008.
You're the social media manager for a medium-sized business (if that was even a thing).
The top three platforms were:
1) Blogger
2) MySpace
3) Facebook
These platforms (maybe excluding MySpace) required a similar skillset: Writing. Most content was written form or photos. Video came later.
I don't need to convince you; today is different. Waaaay different.
Now, one skill set doesn't do it.
You need to be good at:
– Video
– Audio
– Photo(graphy)
– Digital writing
This makes my advice applicable to 80% of marketing teams that don't have all those skill sets:
Focus on ONE channel.
In episode 3 of season 3, I share:
– The evolution of social media
– A simple strategy to focus on one channel
– Ways to dominate one channel
– Three signals it's time to branch out (switch) platforms
– (Bonus) NEW idea on defining who you want to be known by
– And answer the questions you asked on my LinkedIn post (TY!)
