Today’s tip, whilst mainly in reference to social media, can be used more widely in your marketing plans.

Don’t be afraid to check out what your competitors are doing on their social media feeds.  Whilst of course we don’t advocate copying them, take a look into their posting history to find out: –

  • The content they post
  • Who they follow
  • Who’s following them
  • How often they post
  • Their most popular posts

Use the information you gather to mix up your social media schedule a little to see if it makes a difference to your engagement and reach.

If you have never carried out analysis on your competitors, you’re missing a trick.  Their social media profiles are as public as yours, this is a great way to compare your strategy with theirs are maybe get some ideas on how to change your performance. 

Ask yourself what your competitors are doing well; make a list of their strengths and weaknesses.  Are they posting a particular type of content that is getting them good engagement? 

Once you have taken a look at your competitors’ social media, come up with a plan of action to implement changes to your own social media strategy.  Of course, we would never advocate directly copying posts; but there is no harm in keeping your ideas fresh!
