Rules of social media marketing

To succeed on social media and content marketing, you need to listen more. The “just keep listening, you'll understand eventually” mindset needs to go as soon as possible.

Only then can you create content and products that fit your customers.

The rule of focus

You were not born to please everyone, and neither is your brand. Put all your brand-building resources behind one specific customer group to get the best results. At Mona, for example, the focus is on developing travel website design services, corporate website design, landing page design, real estate, hotel and restaurant website design, and more.

In practice, a strategy for Social Media Marketing and content marketing that is highly focused always builds toward a strong brand. It gives you a better chance of success than a strategy that is too broad and tries to offer everything to everyone.

The rule of quality

Ads on social media: “Quality will certainly beat quantity.” You are better off with 1,000 connections who regularly engage (read, comment and share) with your content and marketing messages than 10,000 connections who never engage with you.

A typical case is business fanpages on Facebook, where the number of people engaging with the page matters more than the number of Likes. You can pay for Likes, but how interested customers are in the fanpage and how they engage depends on how smartly and attractively you guide the content and the events you run.

The rule of combination

One of the strengths of Social Media Marketing is its enormous reach: a piece of information can be known by millions of people in a short time. If you publish high-quality, engaging content and build a large online community of readers, that is wonderful. They will share it on their personal pages on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, blogs and many other social tools.

Sharing and discussing content creates hundreds of pieces of content related to you. That related content guides search engines like Google to find your content and establish keywords for it, giving you hundreds of thousands of chances to reach potential customers.

collaboration

The rule of influence

The influence of well-known people is a necessary factor in Marketing. These are people with influence in a community, and what they post about your brand gets a lot of attention. So when you hire a suitable Influencer (someone who influences others) for your product or service, your brand gains more credibility and reaches a huge pool of potential customers.

Those readers will naturally become free “marketers”, spreading your brand by word of mouth.
