What Is Social Media Management?

Social media is an effective way to engage with your customers and build a business brand online. There are well over 3 billion people using social media worldwide. Social media provides you with a great opportunity to build your customer base, find new leads, and expand your brand presence.

Social media management is the process of managing your social media profiles (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter) and ensuring you are getting desired results. Managing your social media profiles involves a series of processes:

• Keeping your social media profile up to date
• Creating and posting content
• Scheduling content
• Boosting posts and creating social media ads
• Engaging with your audience
• Analyzing metrics to identify opportunities for improvement

Social media management requires you to complete the above steps for all your social media profiles and ensure your strategy is cohesive. For many business owners, they simply don’t have the time or expertise to maximize the effectiveness of social media. But, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t participate. You need an online presence. At Grow With Search, we’ll help you successfully manage your social media profiles, keep your profiles active and manage paid campaigns.

Social media management is an important part of your online strategy. It will increase your business exposure and provide you with opportunities to generate new leads and sales.

Here are some key reasons why social media management is important:

• Establish authority in your industry: If you want to be a leader in your industry, locally or nationally, you need to have a strong social presence. But, you also need to manage it properly. Social media management ensures you can regularly post content, stay on top of trends, and communicate with your customers. The better authority you have, the more likely and customer will trust your brand, and more importantly, the more willing they will be to do business with you.

• Boost engagement: You need to be active on social media to make it worthwhile. Regular social media management can help you boost engagement on your social channels. You can quickly identify the type of posts your customers like and adjust your strategy accordingly to get more out of your social media channels.

They use your social media accounts to contact you, ask questions, share their interactions with your brand, complain and much more. Use your profiles to build trusting relationships with your audience. Managing your social accounts ensures your customers are properly cared for and you can send customer requests to the right people in your company.

• Support SEO and digital marketing: Social media supports your SEO and digital marketing strategy. It allows you to create new links and to share your top performing content to generate more traffic. This can help you increase and maintain your search engine rankings and its gives you another channel to promote your marketing campaigns.

Strategically schedule and share posts to ensure your customers are in the loop at all times.

What To Avoid With Social Media Management

The last thing you want is your company to go viral and get negative attention. There are social media management best practices all brands need to follow to ensure you are getting the best return on your social media efforts. Here are some common social media management mistakes to avoid:

• Not monitoring enough: You can’t allow days or weeks to go by without checking your social media profiles. Your customers could be asking questions, making requests, or have comments that are time sensitive. It’s important to check your profile frequently.

• Ignoring your users: If someone takes the time to post, comment, or direct message on your social media, it’s very important to respond, even if it’s a negative comment. Respond to all messages, negative or positive. Deleting negative comments is not an effective strategy.

• Not tracking your metrics: Through your social media profiles, you have access to lots of valuable insights about how people interact with your brand. You can learn a lot about your customer and use this not only in your social media strategy, but also for other marketing initiatives.

• Selling too much: Your social feeds can’t simply be promotions for your products and services. This will turn people off. Use your channels to share important information, educate users, and provide value to your audience. Some promotion is to be expected, but it can’t be the only thing you share.

• Not using paid social ads: Organic reach on social media is less and less. Premium services such as post boosting and ads allow you to target specific audiences and reach more people. Paid posts can help you boost engagement, get more leads and drive more traffic to your website.
