We think messaging is what separates good social posts from great ones. When coherent messaging is left out, your results can be very similar to the results of some ads you have seen on other media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Have you ever watched a TV commercial and laughed out loud but shortly after, not been able to remember the product?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Have you ever seen a beautiful magazine ad but when thinking back can\u2019t remember what the point of it was other than beauty?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">These and countless other marketing \u201cmisfires\u201d occur when you forget to include your brand messaging. While it isn\u2019t the end of the world, it will certainly slow down your momentum toward finding new customers. Customers need to understand our business and develop a level of trust before they commit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">That\u2019s why we include a 3-2-1\u00a0 plan in our app. The 3 stands for three messages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">We need three messages to focus on because otherwise we will spend all our time talking about our product, a \u201cno-no\u201d in social media. So we map out two other important messages that indirectly sell our product but directly help us build relationships and trust with our audience. Messages Two is about sharing the bigger picture: our product industry, with our audience. Message 3 is more personal: about our company and staff, what we stand for and how we can help customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">At Small Biz Brands, we love helping businesses figure out their ideal three messages. Take a quick look. Go to your Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn pages and review your last two weeks of posts. Are all your three messages represented in your feed? If not, move that to the top of your list going forward. When you begin prepping for posting, focus on messages first. For now, you can get in the habit by trying to include one message per post, and trying to use all three messages each week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Next Steps<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you want to talk more about this topic that is critical to the success of your social media,\u00a0 join us in The Brand Builders, our private Facebook group.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are big on messaging!
