Social Media Marketing Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1

How effective is social media marketing?

Accepted Answer

The effectiveness of social media marketing will vary depending on the business, industry, and content creation methods deployed by page owners. It will also depend on what is meant by "effective" - Effectiveness will be determined by the goals of each individual business, whether that is brand awareness, sales growth, user engagement, etc.
 For example, a fashion retailer may have an easier time growing sales through social media than a company like an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) may have. However, the OEM could still use social media marketing very effectively to help them grow their industry authority and position themselves as an active thought leader while sharing posts that bring value & education to their core audience.

Question 2

Which social media platform is best for marketing?

Accepted Answer

There is no "best" social media platform for marketing. Instead, think of social media platforms as hosts for different audience groups. Each platform, whether it is Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, or others, has unique tools and methods that people can use to be social. Additionally, people of different ages and backgrounds tend to gravitate to different platforms.
 For business owners, it is not about finding the "best platform", it is about finding the best platform for your business based on your audience(s) and where they spend the most time.
