Social media is a two-way street. Take the time to join in with the discussion and learn what is important to your audience.

Rule 2: Focus

Build consistent and focused content across all of the social media platforms that you use or risk diluting your brand.

Rule 3: Quality

Quality > Quantity. What’s a high follower count without engagement?!

It requires both time and commitment to see success on social media.

Rule 5: Compounding

Quality content leads to quality followers, which results in word-of-mouth promotion!

Rule 6: Influencer

Collaborate with influencers who align with your brand. Connect with those people and work to build relationships with them.

Rule 7: Value

Don’t just sell your product. Give your customers a variety of interesting content that adds value to them, which will create brand loyalty.

Rule 8: Acknowledgement

Show your audience you care by acknowledging them! Quickly addressing their questions, concerns and suggestions will make them feel valuable to your brand.

Rule 9: Accessibility

Consistency is key! Followers won’t hesitate to replace you if you disappear for weeks or months.

Rule 10: Reciprocity

Return the love! Like, comment and share other people’s content! *Make sure this content is similar to your brand so you can appear in the “recommended” list.
