I am a big fan of dance parties! With an almost-two-year-old under my roof, dancing breaks out pretty much anytime we turn on the music. As we were twirling around the living room the other day, I started thinking about how social media management is like a dance party.
Don’t see the correlation? I’ll connect the dots for you.
4 Social Media Marketing Tips From Dance Parties
Here are 4 social media management tips you can learn from your next dance party!
1. Make the Time. If you want a really good dance party, you need to make the time to put a killer playlist together and invite a few friends over. Similarly, you need to make the time for social media management. Just like a music playlist won’t make itself, your Facebook and Google+ pages won’t update on their own.
2. Find Your Style. When I dance, I include a lot of arm movements and big gestures. My daughter stomps her feet and spins in a circle. Not everyone has the same moves. Although there’s nothing wrong with mimicking what you see someone else do, in both dancing and social media management it’s important to stay true to yourself and your business. Think about what you want your brand’s personality to be and build your social media strategy around it.
3. Do It Often. As with everything, the more you do it, the more results you see. The more often I dance, the longer I can go before getting tired and the less sore I am the next day. When you update your social media channels more often, you’ll see results more regularly as well.
4. Get help. Not everyone is a natural dancer, and not everyone picks up social media on their own. In dancing, you can take lessons. Similarly, don’t be afraid to ask for help with your company’s social media. There are a lot of firms that offer social media management services (like Three Girls) that can either help you manage your business’ accounts or provide consultations and advice.
