Top 3 Social Media Mistakes
Mistake #1: Content Creation
Yes I know it sounds strange. However, it is so easy to create content on social media that people just dive in and create lots of content. They have a content calendar and various kinds of content, but sadly no ROI.
Mistake #2: Confusing Content Strategy with Content Marketing
Strategy is about figuring out what to do, rather than the act of doing(creating) which is distinctly different from the act of marketing the content you have created.
Mistake #3: Social Media Measurement i.e. Measuring the wrong things v/s Key Performance Indicators
We get excited looking at the number of comments, on a post, excited about engagement and even driving engagement at the cost of achieving business objectives. This happens because one mixes up Social media metrics and business metrics (KPI).
Succeeding at Social Media: The three key elements
