Despite the abundance of social media marketing advice online, lots of businesses still get it wrong.The advice available to anyone trying to solidify their social media marketing strategies is endless. Still, many businesses run into the same pitfalls time and again. An infographic from entrepreneur Jason Squires details the nine most common mistakes.
I think it is very true that many businesses don’t do enough focus on the quality of their followers, but rather on the quality. They judge themselves by the number of their followers, but they don’t take into account whether their followers are actually paying attention to their posts. It is important to keep posting content regularly that engages the audience. If you don’t keep making interesting posts, you are bound to eventually lose your audience. It is a common mistake that marketers make that once they have followers, they have customers which is not true. It is their responsibility to make the followers their customers. I believe it’s also wise to limit a company to 3 or 4 platforms and too just use the ones that are highly relevant instead of being all over the lower tier ones. Your brand on social media needs to have a personality. Personalities are what make people unique and they are, also what can make a business unique.
