Don’t know where to start? Before you begin to post any content, remember to think about these factors:
Content Quality
Producing high-quality visual content is a must. Most followers use it as a deciding factor on who to follow or on what products to buy. On average, 83% of marketers believe quality matters.
Don’t let this intimidate you! This can be as easy as choosing to take photos in natural daylight rather than indoors. Simple choices along the way that favor quality over convenience are key. Check out our article on how to improve the photos you take with your phone.
Video Content
TikTok or Instagram Reels are one of the most effective ways to promote your business on social media. Producing behind-the-scenes and authentic content can help connect with your audience.
