Common Mistakes in Social Media Marketing

Anyone who is creating content knows how important it is to effectively market on social media. Social media platforms are the best and easiest way to get your content out to millions of people to grow your audience overall. While social media can be a great way to expand your circle, there are many common mistakes that are made that can hurt your marketing strategies. 

One of the easiest mistakes to make can be reposting the same content across every social media channel. Every channel has a different audience, and each platform requires a unique delivery. Creating different content for each platform can increase your chances of it being enjoyed and shared amongst other users. Along with that, it is important to post your content on only one or two platforms as opposed to using every social media platform out there. 

It is also important to build a relationship with your audience before trying to sell anything. Posting only conversion posts will be a turnoff to social media users especially if you haven’t already earned their trust. Similarly to that, posting clickbait will also lessen the trust users have in you and can lead to low like ratios and less followers. 

It can be difficult to navigate the best ways to market on social media. To learn the best way to find and tailor content to find a perfect audience, take a look at the infographic below:
