Is Authenticity Returning to Social Media www.strongandworthy.com

Is Authenticity Returning to Social Media?

This post is an excerpt from one made by Sara Hodge in the Connect for Entrepreneurial Women Facebook group. For daily tips, support and information on social media marketing for small business, be sure to join for free right here.

Running the numbers

Ask any social media manager who is running accounts for various clients and they’ll all tell you the same thing.

The #1 concern of most clients? Numbers.

“How long will it take you to get my Facebook page to 10,000 likes?”

“How many followers can you get me in a week?”

“Can you make this go viral?”

Of course numbers are most certainly important, as is ROI. And it’s frustrating to wait sometimes for that hard-to-measure social ROI to finally kick in, since social marketing is a slow and gradual process.

Put an ad in the paper and you can tell in a matter of days if it worked or not.

Social… not so much.

3 Automation Tips for Twitter

3 Automation Tips for Twitter

Do you automate your Twitter posts? While convenient, there are some good reasons to be mindful when considering automation.

Twitter is big on engagement.

As such, one major faux pas is to frequently post things that make it obvious you’re not there. Posts such as:

  • regular auto-tweets pushed from your instagram account
  • auto-tweets pushed from Facebook
  • scheduled time-sensitive tweets that are past their due date (think Valentine’s-related tweets in August – it happens!)
  • and worst of all, scheduled tweets that are inappropriately timed

So, what to do if you are pressed for time and need automation?

Sara Hodge's CONNECT Facebook Networking Group for Entrepreneurial Women www.strongandworthy.com

CONNECT! For Entrepreneurial Women Facebook Group

It’s funny how sometimes things happen by mere synchronicity, if you’re paying close enough attention.

I’ve been intending for a while now to launch my third Facebook group dedicated to networking women, this one specifically for women entrepreneurs and not as locally-focused as the two I currently run. I wanted this group to be for ALL entrepreneurial women, regardless of their location, who are committed to creating, growing and nurturing their own networks, filled with their ideal clients. A group where I can share tips and knowledge I’ve gained from my 7+ years of experience running networking groups, both online and off, including my original Facebook women’s group, started in 2009.

I’ve been thinking about it.

And then yesterday, while scrolling through my Facebook feed, I noticed a post from a friend of mine asking if such a group existed. I know there are women out there looking for this, and it suddenly hit me how silly it is for me to continue putting it off when I could be helping people.

And so, I took that as my wake up call, and did something about it.
