Hey all,

Episode 12 is the one you won’t want to miss!

In case you’re annoyed/terrified/unsure about everything that’s been happening with updates from social media platforms—Facebook, I’m looking at you—it’s time to take a fresh look at how we approach content and social media as businesses.

And there’s no better person to have as a guest when it comes to social media than Brian Peters. Brian is a digital marketing strategist with Buffer and you probably know him from Buffer’s podcast, videos, and blog. He’s also driving Buffer’s email marketing efforts, brand partnerships, evangelism, video marketing, and much more.

In our chat, we took a deep dive into what’s currently happening and how as marketers, we can use these changes to drive our brands forward without the fear of algorithm changes diminishing our work. I hope you enjoy!

Listen in on my chat with Brian to learn all about:
  • All the details about recent update from Facebook and the announcement that public content from brands and publishers will be deprioritized in the News Feed
  • Why limited space on the News Feed is a good thing for you as a brand
  • How platform changes like this one reflect on B2B companies
  • The value of using organic social media as platforms on their own without the expectation to click elsewhere
  • How these steps relate to your business objectives and stages of your funnel
  • Why brands need to take a critical look at what they’re sharing
