August 2020 Social Media Post Challenge
It is almost August, and you still haven't got a plan for your social media yet? I understand, being consistent on social media can be a real challenge, but it doesn't have to be. This month participate in the Simple & Savvy Social Media Challenge (#S&SChallenge) and have an idea for what to post every day! August is the start of school for many, the last full month of summer, and once of the few months with no traditional holidays, so finding content to post can be even harder this month what with all the stuff you have going on and the limited inspiration. The good news is that there are a lot of fun National holidays to play with and some business promotion and engagement ideas that will be great to work on this month. You will also notice that I have a generic theme by day of the week. The reason I choose a generic theme by day of the week is to have a jumping-off point in case I don't already have a specific idea in mind for that date. Doing this helps me share my brand touchstones and ensure I am posting content that my dream client will find valuable. It may take you some time to determine what you want yours should be, here are my suggestions for August:
Tuesday: Tip Tuesday - Industry related tips. Your advice on subjects that pertain to what you do. Have fun with it. Wednesday: What we do Wednesday- share a product or service. This could be a detailed post on why your product or service is beneficial, how to use it, who needs it, or even a demo. Thursday: This is how we roll Thursday- Behind the scenes post Friday: Fri-YAY! Client testimonials. Share the love you receive with the rest of your followers; nothing works better than social proof to show others all the awesomeness you have to offer. You can do this easily with a pretty graphic, a simple screenshot, or even just repost it. It is a good idea to ask permission if they sent it to you privately. Saturday: Saturday Selfie - post a selfie and share a little bit about you. Personalizing what you do helps create connections and build trust! #saturdayselfie Sunday: Sell me something Sunday- post your current offer, promotion, or deal. I love fun, weird, and offbeat "holidays," too, so you will see many listed. I recommend choosing ones that give you a chance to express your personality or relate directly to your business; if it doesn't play to one of those two things, I will avoid it. There are so many, and you can find them all over the internet. I have found that the team at National Day Calendar does a fantastic job at sharing these, and you can sign up for regular reminders if you love them. Download the August challenge and play along. Here are the challenge details by day, the first idea is from the challenge PDF download, but I have also included some additional suggestions in case you don't love the primary suggestion. Be sure to hashtag your posts so I can see you and engage. #s&schallenge
