    Study Notes

    Social Media Strategy

    • A social media strategy offers multiple benefits, with improved email performance NOT being one of them.
    • Twitter requires more frequent content sharing to maximize engagement.
    • The longevity of content is highest on Pinterest.

    Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

    • Vanity metrics include reach, while true engagement is indicated by shares, retweets, likes, and favorites.
    • Revisiting KPIs should occur more frequently than every 18 months—this is a common misconception.

    Buyer Personas and Stakeholder Engagement

    • Developing a social media strategy necessitates the importance of buyer personas alongside business objectives.
    • Stakeholders' needs must align with your strategy to gain support from senior leaders.

    Social Listening vs. Social Monitoring

    • Social listening gathers brand-related conversations to participate actively, while social monitoring assesses reputation at a broader level.
    • Monitoring competitors can detract from a brand's unique strategy.

    Content and Engagement

    • Effective use of animated GIFs simplifies complex concepts in social content.
    • Instagram stories are effective for driving traffic and engagement.
    • An 80/20 content mix means 80% of posts should be engaging or informative content, with only 20% focused on product promotion.
    • User-generated content is not legally owned by brands, although it is valuable for community engagement.
    • Transparency and respecting user interactions are crucial—negative comments shouldn't be deleted unnecessarily.

    Influencer Marketing

    • Trusting influencers and granting them creative freedom enhances authenticity and audience engagement.
    • Campaigns should also aid influencers in building their authority.

    Customer Engagement and Sales

    • Building rapport before sales pitches on social media is essential; timing increases conversion chances.
    • One-to-one engagement is correlated with increased spending by customers.

    Measurement and ROI

    • Calculating ROI for social media involves measuring the effectiveness of actions through net income relative to costs.
    • Important costs to track for ROI calculation include work hours, agency costs, and content development.

    Crisis Management

    • During a social media crisis, avoid sending promotional messages to prevent further backlash.
    • Evaluating team dynamics and responses to crises is critical but occurs after the crisis has passed, not during the response.

    Social Media Policies

    • A comprehensive social media policy begins with educating employees on its importance.
    • Specific guidelines and best practices support consistent and responsible use of social media in organizations.
