Kudos to you for knowing the importance of social media! You have already discovered the means to accessing your ideal client at little to no cost, and you're ready to take the next step: posting. But what should you post and how often? Today, I am excited to present my blog series: Posting with Purpose. Over the next few weeks I will share quick tips and tricks to make your blog and social media posts stronger and more engaged!

Posting to Facebook at noon on Sunday? Pinning images from your website on Tuesday morning? Instagramming to promote your blog during office hours? If you have done any of the above then you are not reaching the largest audience possible, and you are probably not seeing any results. Get rid of pointless posts and use your time wisely by implementing strategies that will ultimately grow your online presence!

Thanks to outlets like Time, Inc., HubStop, and Huffington Post there are a plethora of wonderful articles dishing out the ideal times to engage with your audience and grow your reach. However, when you are a small business owner time is of the essence. This is why I have created a simple, go-to calendar for creating posts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Google Plus! By following this guide, you will be able to make the most of your precious time and get your content seen.

TIP: GET MORE SHARES, LIKES + COMMENTS BY TAGGING FELLOW VENDORS, BUSINESS PARTNERS, CLIENTS, ETC. WHO HAve A HAND IN YOUR WORK!

TIP: SCHEDULE YOUR FACEBOOK POSTS TO SAVE ON TIME, BUT DON'T FORGET TO INTERACT WITH FELLOW FB USERS WHO COMMENT ANYTHING YOU SHARE!
