How important is social media for your business? Here’s what I do: Standing out from the crowd is getting harder every day. It feels like everybody is building their brand online, But most people are only thinking short-term. I prefer to think about content as a long-term game: More opportunities to be seen.  More control over how I’m perceived. More time connecting with the right people. Plus, I just love creating content. Writing and sharing come naturally to me so it’s a good fit.  But there are a lot more benefits to creating a long term content strategy. Myself and other Forbes Coaches Council Members recently contributed to an article: “15 Goals A Long-Term Content Strategy Can Help Entrepreneurs Achieve” We outlined some of the benefits of taking a long term approach to your content.

Tomorrow my team and I start our major social media content release plan and I’m excited but also a little scared… Over the past several months I’ve probably recorded over 200 videos, written tens of thousands of words, and hosted 15+ podcast style interviews with some pretty remarkable guests. My team has been nudging me to start scheduling these posts to go out regularly instead of just accumulating content in our Google drive because they know I have this fear which leads to procrastination and they want this stuff to be seen! But tomorrow that procrastination stops and we are following a plan which will have me sharing videos, graphics and written posts at a rate I’ve never done before on multiple platforms. I know I’ll get over this fear by doing it, but I’m sharing this because I know I’m not the only one that is afraid of judgment, has a little impostor syndrome, or simply a fear of truly being yourself online. I get it. It’s real. And starting tomorrow I’m feeling the fear and doing it anyway. Thanks in advance for your support. #entrepreneurship #socialmediamarketing #businessowner

Are you wondering why your content is not getting greater interaction, views, likes, etc? Matt Lerner did some research and came to a conclusion that is both reassuring and realistic. Basically posts of any format do poorly. His data set dataset showed that • 75% of all posts got fewer than 100 likes • 25% got more than 1,000 • 0.45% got more than 10,000 Is there good news? A little bit. Images with text tend to outperform, though 75% of all posts get fewer than 100 likes. No avoiding this conclusion: "Quality content eats format for breakfast, lunch and dinner." Write useful and good content and people are more likely to engage with it. (and add a picture) Follow Matt Lerner for really interesting content. #ZCL #Moonshot #Business #Linkedin #Entrepreneur
