HARNESS THE POWER OF VIRAL CONTENT
In today’s age of instant content, influencers, memes and unicorn content, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for brands to truly stand out on social media, leaving us all fumbling to keep on top of the ever-changing social media trends and platform algorithms. However, while keeping your finger on the pulse is essential when it comes to social media, brands often overlook the importance of an engaged follower base.
Everyone is striving to achieve that genuinely viral content, and our social media engagement training is here to help you truly harness the power of social media engagement to translate into results for your business. We’ll be showing you how to carve out your niche in the competitive social-sphere, passing on our best tips on how to increase your engagement levels, with insight into everything from tone of voice to copy-writing, to measuring success – and trust us, because we’ve done it all!
Increase Social Media Engagement to grow your business!
Social media is now a go-to tool for businesses, with no marketing strategy worth its salt is without. If executed correctly, social media can have a ripple effect on the rest of the company, raising brand awareness and increasing conversions to enhance business earnings.
Promoting your brand through social media is therefore essential for companies, but simply sending content into the ether, then expecting to relax while comments, requests or sales roll in, just doesn’t cut it these days.
The secret to using social media effectively to convert into results for your business lies in engagement. Communication, after all, is a two-way street and, in particular, on social media, followers expect to be part of a dialogue. Keeping this dialogue open and involving your audience means they’ll be looking at your brand far more favourably, and we’re here to teach you how to keep your followers engaged to translate into results.

Social Media Engagement Strategy
On social media, the word “engagement” is used so often that it’s almost a buzzword. However, while buzzwords come and go, real engagement is a long-term game. Also, while many brands think they’re doing it, many of them don’t.
We’re here to show you a whole host of ways to engage your community more, through effective social strategy. Some techniques are quick wins that will achieve a quick burst of engagement, and some will take more time to nurture. Some will work correctly, while others are just going to fall flat, but it’s key to keep trying! Invest the time into your community regularly, not just as a hands-off brand looking from outside.
We’ll look at how to develop an effective social media engagement strategy, including:
- Define your goal
- Know your audience
- Create and share valuable content
- Stay topical
- Make a move
- Find the time
How to Improve Social Media Engagement
Any way in which your community interacts with your profile or content on any social media platform is social media engagement, and these metrics are crucial for measuring the effectiveness of your social media campaign and accomplishing goals such as generating leads and sales.
However, brands often fall into the trap of using social media channels as a platform to push out content and shout about the brand. However, if you begin using it as an opportunity to truly communicate with your audience, you’ll be able to utilize any platform to increase leads, raise brand awareness, or offer customer support. In our social media engagement training we show you how to truly improve the ways in which you engage on social, demonstrating how to:
- Start the Conversation
- Promote Your Brand Enthusiasts
- Jump on Current Events & Topical Subjects
- Be Receptive with Your Audience
- Work as a Team on Social Media
Social Media Engagement tools
Social media is a mainstay of our continually shifting digital culture, so much so that it’s almost impossible to imagine a moment without updates, likes, and shares. Where else will you find such a mass-following of like-minded individuals, perfectly suited to your target demographic and already actively interested in your products or services, than in your follower list? They’re ready to double-tap, retweet and share your content across the digital sphere, so social media marketers need to have their fingers on the pulse, creating fresh content for their followers.
We’re here to not only give you top tips on creating the right sorts of content but to make sure you’ve got the right tools in place to analyse your content, sharing with you our go-to tools to help you do this along the way. We’ll be picking out the best tools for:
- Photo editing
- GIFs
- Analytics
- Collaboration
How to Measure Social Media Engagement
Every brand is different, every group of board directors expect to see different results, and therefore every brands’ marketing goals are unique to them – and social media is no exception. There are countless ways to measure social media engagement, each metric means something different, and there’s nothing worse than creating some excellent content and not effectively measuring the engagement of said post to demonstrate what this means for your business.
We’re here to help you develop your own social media strategy by discovering what social media metrics matter the most to your brand, to truly evaluate what engagement means for your business and capture the impact it has on sales and profits. We’ll be showing you how to do a deep dive into each of your networks, teaching you what metrics work best and how to create and post content that will deliver the right results.
We will cover how to:
- Find Your Core Social Media Engagement Metrics
- Go In-Depth Within Each Network
Why is Social Media Engagement important in Customer Experience?
These days, customers expect brands to have a strong social media presence which not only delivers interesting, relevant content but also provides customer service at the end of their fingertips. How you engage with your customers, both current and potential, impacts on how your brand is perceived and has a direct link on performance.
Your audience is becoming far savvier than they used to be. They don’t just expect you to respond in a timely manner, but also judge the content you’re putting out there and the tone of voice you take. We’re here to help you engage with your customers; it’s all about finding your voice to help bolster your customer’s experience, increasing brand loyalty and generating word of mouth.
We’ll not only be covering off the basics of how and when to respond to customers, but we’ll also be looking into providing them with something that little bit extra, including:
- Providing More to the Social Customer
- Exceeding Customer Expectations on Social Platforms
