I have incredible women in my life who have made sure I'm where I am now. That said, there are some amazing social media tools which are more female specific such as pinterest, but, is pinterest social media or a search engine?

It's the weekend and it's your chance to be heard by a brand new audience. Social media doesn't work a 5 day week so why would you not take the opportunity to be heard by new people every weekend.

Everyone can make content of value for their business, yes even dentists on national dentist day and every other day too. So many brands I speak too insist they have no value to give until I help them think a little differently about their content. So, next time you're thinking, I've got nothing to give, start to think outside the box a little bit, you'll be amazed what value you have to give for FREE.

No Grandmas where hurt in this post.

Yesterday was, hashtag#nationalgrammarday in America. So is it important for your social media content?

Well, there are billions of pieces of content shared each week, just on Facebook, imagine what that number is across all platforms.

However, that being said, how much of that content do you think uses proper grammar and punctuation?

I don’t know the number, but I am sure more than half of the content has a good amount of grammar and punctuation errors.

When we're all using platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. where good copy is key to drawing in the audience, if you want to keep readers and continue the conversation, it is important to use proper grammar to avoid looking silly.

Remember, good grammar is the difference between knowing your shit, and knowing you're shit.

Today is #whatifpetshadthumbs day. I think if they had thumbs they’d use social media but also let’s are quite needy so would respond to comments etc. You know, being social on social media

We all know that we don’t like being sold to, so why do we still see so many businesses ignoring the rules of engagement and spending their time selling solidly on their social media channels.

They don’t respond to comments, and every single photo and piece of copy is selling to their audience, and then they wonder why the don’t get the interaction rates they really wanted.

Now, imagine giving nothing but value to your audience. Imagine being an expert in your field, a voice of authority, and giving them that value for free, value that will really help them, value they can use and implement in their business straight away. Imagine responding to every single comment you get rather than acting like a douchbag and not talking to the 5 people who’ve taken time to write to you in the comments.

If you can do the above, you’ll be amazed at how your audience will grow, and how you’ll build a group of incredible raving fans.

If you want to discuss your social media more, you can always drop me a line (link in my profile), I look forward to speaking to you

It's Dr Seuss' birthday and on the day celebrating a man who didn't care what other people think about his supposedly imperfect content, I thought it was worth talking about perfection in your content too.

It's a leap year and today is the extra day, which means by tradition, women ask men to marry them. It's a dated tradition but it got me thinking about you doing something different with your content and how you could do that by working with a professional.

It’s #nationalsleepinpublic day. A day after my own heart for sure. However, you can’t sleep on a weekend with your social media.

So, it’s the weekend, it’s time to see friends, family and go on adventures, espesically as the weather is so nice at the moment.

However, don’t let the weekend be an excuse for you to do nothing for your audience. Don’t forget, social media doesn’t switch off for the weekend, so you need to keep talking to them, especially as usage rates go up at the weekend as people have more time on their hands.

This doesn’t mean you have to post more often (although that wouldn’t hurt), but, just don’t forget them altogether just because it’s your time off.

If you need help coming up with weekend content ideas, let’s have a chat.

Today is #nationalproteinday which sounds an amazing reason to eat a full English to me followed by a mixed grill for dinner, but I digress. Social media is a lot like hitting the gym where you truly need protein to help your muscles heal.

Yes I know we all want that amazing audience for our social media channels, however, we can’t always get what we want. When it comes to building an audience of value who’ll interact with your content it takes consistency and a whole lot of patience, it takes time, just like training in the gym.

More and more people are using social media every single day for their brands and businesses. However, in connection to this, a lot of these people are also thinking that a single social media post will be the answer to their prayers and bring them lots and lots of business.

Social media is not a place to sell, it is however and excellent place to build brand, to build confidence in what you do, and most importantly build a group of raving fans who’ll not only be potential customers in the future but will also share your amazing value driven content when you put it out.

So, when you’re putting together your social content remember that consistency is key, and there’s no point in putting out one piece of content on Tuesday and the next one going out in a months time. You wouldn’t go into a gym and lift weights for one hour and expect to walk out looking like Arnie in Predator, so why would you expect to put in one days work on your social and it bring a return for you.

Patience and consistency, I cannot reiterate these words enough for you to digest.

If you want to chat through this at all with me and chat about your social content, I’m more than happy to jump on a Skype call or over a brew 😃
