It\u2019s easier to try a new brand when others have already tested and approved it for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can also draw in new customers with content that inspires them or connects with their personal aspirations. <\/strong>That\u2019s where the next tip comes in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"share\"><br><strong>Share social media content that adds value<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about your personal relationship with social media platforms. If you\u2019re like most people, you\u2019re scrolling in search of timely news, interesting distractions, and inspiration. Maybe you love home d\u00e9cor tips or quick and healthy recipes for busy professionals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The point is that you\u2019re looking for <em>value<\/em>. And <strong>as a professional responsible for a brand\u2019s social media PR, you need to focus on providing that value to your brand\u2019s followers and your target audience.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outline your social media PR plan around providing helpful information that answers a question, inspires, or provides a feel-good moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of ways to provide value, and so many formats to provide it in. Here are some great examples:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Start by publishing instructional blog posts<\/strong>. Start with content on your brand website that you can share social media links to.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Posts with titles like \u201c7 Ways to Avoid Sunburn This Summer\u201d or \u201cThe 3-Ingredient Breakfast We\u2019re Having on Repeat\u201d not only draw readers in, but offer them something in exchange for their time. Just keep the topics relevant to the product or service you\u2019re selling.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Share your blog content in an innovative way.<\/strong> Tease a little bit of the content so people click through to your website. Plus, for blog content that does especially well, consider putting ad dollars behind it!<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Alex-Birkett-on-Linkedin-Prowly.png\" alt=\"Alex Birkett's LinkedIn post screenshot showing a pdf file with &quot;44 Copywriting formulas to level up your content writing&quot;.\" class=\"wp-image-18985\" style=\"width:583px;height:764px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:10px\"><em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/iamalexbirkett_44-copywriting-formulas-to-level-up-your-activity-6904866518002135040-vKL4?utm_source=linkedin_share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop_web\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Source: Alex Birkett on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Treat Pinterest like the search engine it is<\/strong>.&nbsp; Pinterest operates like a search engine, allowing people to search for the specific content they want to see. Pinterest results also show up in Google searches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, take advantage of this special feature of Pinterest and build interesting and brand-relevant boards there. For example, a cookware brand may create boards around recipes, kitchen d\u00e9cor inspiration, and cooking tips from professional chefs. Don\u2019t forget to include your blog posts there too! It\u2019s another way to drive people to your website to learn about your product or service.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Provide photo inspiration on Instagram. <\/strong>Instagram is a place where people usually visit for a quick scroll during a break, versus seeking out a specific search, so focus on posting enticing photos that draw them in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Show your product in the hands of <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/influencer-pr\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/influencer-pr\/\">influencers<\/a>, share customer-generated content, and share behind-the-scenes \u201csneak peeks\u201d whenever possible. For example, a behind-the-scenes look at the production line of a clean beauty company could really showcase the quality and care taken to create your superior product.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Karolina-Naji-on-Instagram-Prowly.png\" alt=\"Karolina Naji's Instagram profile screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-18986\" style=\"width:760px;height:685px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:10px\"><em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/karolinanaji\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Source: Karolina Naji on Instagram<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Partner with influencers large and small<\/strong>. A large following is no longer the key metric for selecting an influencer. Instead, focus on finding ones that are the best match for your target audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you oversee social media PR for a new cat toy, a dog owner with a huge Instagram following is not going to get you the value of an influencer with a smaller following that posts daily about their cats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With influencer partnerships, you get twice the value: the content published directly to the influencer\u2019s audience and content for you to share on your brand\u2019s social media feeds.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Get active on LinkedIn, and encourage your colleagues to do the same<\/strong>. Yes, LinkedIn should be a part of your social media PR plan! LinkedIn provides an opportunity to show the real people behind a brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just keep the content appropriate to this career platform. Share new industry research findings by your company, interview employees about their work for the company, and provide your expert insights on what\u2019s current and trending. Brand leaders like CEOs need to be active as well, so give them a lot of encouragement to consistently create content there.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Lenox-Powell-on-LinkedIn-Semrush-Prowly.png\" alt=\"Lenox Powell's LinkedIn post screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-18987\" style=\"width:580px;height:604px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:10px\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/lenoxpowell_40-content-marketing-statistics-to-power-activity-6917931161793019904-YE1S\" target=\"_blank\"><em><span class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Source: Lenox Powell on LinkedIn<\/span><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"engage\"><br><strong>Engage with the media<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media PR isn\u2019t just for connecting with customers - <strong>it\u2019s for connecting with the media too<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter is perfect for this!
