Creating AWESOME content for your social media can be a fun and exciting process, however trying to figure out what to post and when can be a somewhat more daunting task. We put together a list of the 20 types of content we use consistently in our social media strategy. Each type of content has a variety of reasons that we use it. Those reasons can vary from engagement, conversion, community building, or just plain old keeping the algorithm happy type content. All of them serve an important purpose in the end so here is the list to help get you started.
Warning: The 80/20 Rule Of Content
When you are creating content for your social media platforms be sure to follow the 80/20 rule! That means that 80% of the content on your page is there to build a community and information your fans will enjoy consuming. That other 20% is the time you get to use to promote your business, build your list, or offer a promotion.
Once you have tried a variety of different types of posts, check your analytics for feedback. What did your fans like? What did they not like? That way you can begin to create content that directly aligns with what your fans are waiting for!
Remember: Consistency is KEY for both your fans and the algorithm.
