7 Steps Towards an Effective Social Media Strategy

By Aundrea Friedley β€’ Published on March 20, 2013

Without clear goals, the effectiveness of your social media campaign cannot be measured, and your company won't be able to identify changes needed to drive real sales. Here is our 7-step blueprint for a results-driven strategy:

Step 1: Determine Your Company’s Goals & Objectives

Are you looking to improve brand presence, drive website traffic, or increase local referrals? Define clear monthly benchmarks.

Step 2: Research, Research, and Even More Research

Don't just post randomly. Identify which platforms your actual buyers spend time on and research your competitors' content.

Step 3: Create a Digital Contact Book

Keep track of active followers, vendors, and clients who interact with your brand to build direct 1-on-1 relationships.

Step 4: Join the Industry Conversation

Comment on local business groups, answer questions, and provide helpful advice to establish thought leadership.

Step 5: Strengthen Relationships Offline

Don’t hide behind your profile picture. Combine your social media presence with in-person networking and chamber events across the Treasure Valley.

Step 6: Measure Your Results

Review your metrics monthly to see which campaigns converted into real client inquiries.

Step 7: Analyze, Adapt, and Strengthen

Marketing is an ongoing process. Adapt your messaging with what works and scale your winning campaigns!
