Have you wondered why so many accounts ask so many questions in their stories or posts?  People are using social media to reach a larger audience for their business. Social media platforms push content that gets more engagement.  Asking questions leads to answers - that's engagement!  If you are a business, asking questions will help you create a community, grow, and create more content your followers want to see.  So if you aren't asking questions on your business social pages, you need to start!  And if you see your favorite business accounts ask a question on their posts or stories, go ahead and answer. It will make their day!  So... how do you feel about questions on posts or stories, 👍 or 👎? See what I did there 😘 #digitalmarketingservices #socialmediamarketing #smallbusinessmarketing #instagramtipsforbusiness #facebooktipsforbusiness #linkedintipsforbusiness #socialmediatipsandtricks #buildingacommunity

I just spent the last four days being completely stressed out! 😬 I wasn’t stressed because of work, but because we were watching my son’s hockey tournament! 🏒 I spent all weekend with great people watching our kids do what they love, and it paid off. They won the championship! 🏆 The best part, I was able to shut off from work completely!  BUT HOW? Marketing is a massive part of running a successful business, yet it's often one of the top things that gets pushed to the side when you get busy.  Been there and done that! But there are ways that you can avoid dropping the marketing ball.  1️⃣ There are so many programs out there to help make your life easier and more streamlined. Some of my favorites are  📱 Metricool for scheduling my social media (FREE) 🗓️ Notion for keeping my (and my clients) content calendar and ideas (FREE) 💰 Honeybook for payments, invoicing, brochures, etc. (Paid) 2️⃣ Creating templates or editing existing templates on Canva for your graphics (FREE) 3️⃣ The ability to outsource anything that is taking time away from my business For some, outsourcing might look like hiring someone to help maintain their home or shopping. For others, it might look like hiring a bookkeeper, training an employee to take on more tasks, or outsourcing your marketing.  It’s no joke that running a business takes a ton of time. Maybe you're starting to realize you need to free up some time and outsource portions of your job or life. How much is it worth to relieve the stress that is taking time away from your family and friends and doing what you do best, running your business! If marketing is one of those things you are looking to delegate or outsource, DON'T just have your admin assistant run your marketing but hire an employee, company, or freelancer WITH marketing experience to ensure it is being done right.  What are you ready to outsource? #smallbusinessgrowth  #delegate  #outsourcedmarketing  #outsource  #businessgrowthstrategy  #instagramtipsforbusiness  #socialmediamarketingstrategy  #socialmediamarketingstrategist  #igmarketing  #socialmediaforbusiness

You're not alone if AI is all you've heard about lately. Here's why I use AI.... sometimes.  I have been playing around with AI for the last six months or so. But that is all I have really been doing with it... playing around.  If I am entirely out of ideas or having a brain fart and cannot think of a hook or intro to get me going, I will turn to AI.  And obviously I used AI to write this post (well not this post, but the images post) but that was to prove a point.  In the copy, I personally can see a difference in my writing style and the style of writing from the AI.  Which is why when I am asked if someone should use AI for themselves I always say it's a great starting off point, but it isn't the finished product.  To create this post I used the new Chat GPT then broke up the text using the carousel option in Copy.ai.  So, will you use AI to write your social media posts or are you going to stay "old school"? #socialmediatipsandtricks #digitalmarketingservices #smallbusinessmarketing #socialmediastrategy #copywritingtips #ai #aiforsocialmedia #socialmediamarketing
