@ogaga_john Regarding cross promotions - doesn't each platform have a different kind of content that works specifically? For instance, the audience on X (formerly Twitter) usually responds text content, whereas Instagram users respond to images/reels. Would you recommend creating separate content pipelines for separate social media platforms?

First of all know your audience, their interests
@vivienne_michaels Let's say I'm building a social media platform for a brand. Do I talk about topics that aren't related to the brand - but are still related to the target audience - using the brand's social media?
Make your content that resonate with your target audience
Run "micro-campaigns" with quirky, time-limited challenges or giveaways. Think of fun tasks like a 24-hour meme contest or a "caption this" challenge. These quick bursts of activity create a sense of urgency, encourage user-generated content, and spark conversations. The buzz generated often extends beyond the campaign, bringing in fresh followers organically.
@dedew16 I've tried doing interactive posts in the past (not a meme contest, but something along those lines). The problem I faced on X (formerly Twitter) is that my post didn't have enough reach, so nobody really participated in the activity or challenge. How do I overcome the obstacle of making sure my posts reach a respectable audience?
Content matters a lot. Invest in visually appealing and informative content. 😍
@savio_martins Is there a way to make sure my content reaches my target audience? Or is it completely in the hands of the algorithm?
Showcase your content properly. Use a variety of formats (e.g., images, videos, articles).
@rebecca_kim1 Do you cross post the same content across different platforms, or do you tailor content specifically for each platform? As far as I can tell, X (formerly Twitter) relies heavily on text based content and articles, and Instagram relies on more visually appealing and catchy content.
Be open-minded to feedbacks, and make people feel engaged.
First of all understand the fact that your audience is everything. Respond them properly
@millie_miller I'd be happy to respond to them, my current issue is that my posts don't reach the audience I'm targeting - they have very few views and very little engagement.
Be consistance, post regularly and maintain a consistent brand voice.
Launching soon!
Consistency's useless if no one cares. Spice it up - ask questions, post hot takes, make sharing your content a no-brainer. Get people talking!
@simonas_kauzonas That's the kind of discussion I was hoping to have.
How do I make sure the questions I ask, or the spicy content I make reaches the people I'm making it for? I've tried to post interactive content (specifically on X) in the past, but the posts don't reach a respectable audience, and therefore have no engagement. Is there a way to fix that? (I think buying the premium subscription would be a way?)
