    This Agency Sends Ads I’m Genuinely Excited To See!

    In this episode of Step Up Your Social, we're delving into one of my favorite examples of content marketing on the entire internet. Traditional marketing highlights a product or feature that it thinks you’ll care about.  Brand marketing tries to make you feel something about the advertiser. Content marketing looks to provide value as a way of getting into your feed or inbox and building trust over time. The Ad Professor is a master of creating content that's so good, I'm legitimately excited to see them hit my inbox. Is the whole thing an ad for their agency? Yup! Do I care? Nope! Because I know that there's value waiting for me in every single issue. Find links to their site, and a whole lot more at StepUpYourSocial.com.

    Social Media is Rented Land — Use Lead Gen Tools To Grow On Real Estate You Own

    If your social media engagement is down, you're not alone! Social media is an amazing tool to reach new people. But never forget, social media is rented land. Keep posting to your social channels, but also use them to grow on real estate you own. This can include newsletters, blogs, digital communities, podcasts and more. In this episode of Step UP Your Social, we talk about why this matters, and how you can use lead gen (short for lead generation) tools to start to move your audience from rented land on social media to real estate you actually own.

    Don’t Let Bureaucrats Write Your Most Important Emails

    So many brands works so hard on their social media posts and newsletters, but overlook crucial comms opportunities by outsourcing important messaging to bureaucrats. When someone places an order with you, or donates to your organization, or even just signs up for your newsletter, are they welcomed into the family and made to feel as special as they are? Or simply sent a brief “thanks”? Too many brands overlook such key moments in their audience journey. In today’s episode of Step Up Your Social, we’ll look at one massive failure, and a whole bunch of successes. Hopefully this episode will inspire you to revisit your own customer or donor journey and edit accordingly!

    Likes On Social Media Are Free

    This is a short episode, adapted from an article I wrote 5 years, about the importance of engaging with positive comments on social media. It's as true today as it was the day I wrote it. So I wanted to share it with you, my podcast listeners. If someone goes out of their way to say something nice about you on social, and you can't be bothered to smash that like button, you should re-evaluate why you are on social in the first place!

    What Are Vanity URLs and Why Should You Be Using Them?

    A vanity url is a memorable url that will redirect to the page where you actually want to send people. They are easy (and inexpensive) to set-up, and can help your user easily find your brand's important content and sub-campaigns. In this episode of Step Up Your Social, we delve into what they are, how to set them up, when you should use them and more. We also cover Bit.ly links and talk about when those can and should be used in lieu of vanity urls. If you aren't using both of these tools in your digital toolkit, you're making things harder than they need to be for your audience. Tune in today and learn more.

    What Your Brand Can Learn From WORDLE
