The Social Media UpdateWith Lucas O'Keefe |
Happy Wednesday! I've got some exciting news to share as well as the updates and events you won't want to miss in the world of social media. Lat week I left my 9-5 job to work on my business full time This is something I said I would never do, but the time has come! I'm making the move to full time entrepreneur and content creator and it's all thanks to YOU and this community. I recorded a podcast episode about balancing a 9-5 and personal brand here if you'd like to listen: On Spotify | On Apple How to reach your audience at every stage of the customer journey (infographic) I always try to load valuable infographics that I've discovered across the various blogs I follow and this one from Giraffe Social Media is great! It breaks down how you can meet your audience at every stage of the buyer's journey. Check it out here. Do you wanna know how much most content creators are making? Kajabi just released their The State of Creators 2024 Report to break down the money making trends of creators all around the world. It's a valuable read and can be found here. Instagram testing a "grid/feed preview" feature As you can see in the images below or by reading this LinkedIn post by Nadja Bella Marrero, Instagram is testing the option to let users preview how posts will look on their grid before sharing them. This helps for planning, spacing, and organization and I'm surprised it doesn't exist already. 8 Questions Your Website Visitors Want Answered Within 10 Seconds (infographic) Another infographic coming your way and this one is by Red Website Design and highlights 8 questions your website visitors want answered within 10 seconds. Read it here. Now here's what you can post this week: -Share or analyze some interesting stats or facts about your industry (give credit to all sources). -Ask your followers to share the top problems they're currently facing in your industry and how you can help. -Share your favorite podcasts or radio stations to listen to and/or learn from. -Share what inspired you to create your product or service you sell for your business (what problems does it solve?) -Invite your followers to introduce themselves and to network within your industry in the comments section of the post. Otherwise I'll see you next week! |
