4 Content Prompts to Get Out of Your Social Media Funk

Social Media is a great tool to use to help promote and build your business, but having to come up with new content can be a drag. Here are 4 content prompts you can use for the next time you’re stuck in a creative rut. 

Testimonials

“It’s not bragging if you can back it up.”-Muhammad Ali 

Posting testimonials from your clients is a great way to directly show your clients and potential clients that not only are you good at what you do, but you’re great! When others see testimonials on a regular basis, it can help instill confidence in them that you are the right person for the job! 

Social Media Stories (Quick, Yet Important Content)

Sharing content on your social media stories is a fun way to interact with your audience in a different way than you would normally do. Try snapping a behind the scenes photo or video on the project you are working on or of your work space- don’t forget to hashtag #bts (Behind The Scenes) to get a further reach! 

Stories are also an amazing way to learn about what your audience wants to see from you. Posting interactive stories like “This or That” or asking a question can allow your audience to engage with you on a more personal level. 

Announcements

Do you have some exciting news you would like to share? It could be a new product that is launching soon or a special sale that you want to offer your customers! Use Announcement as an opportunity to add a flair of excitement to your content! 

Images/ Videos (The Content That Keeps Giving)

What would Social Media be without pictures and videos? Sometimes it’s hard to get new, unique and original content. Share yourself or your team. Make it human, make a connection and show who is behind your social account and your company. We find that showcasing pictures of yourself and your team has a positive outcome with increased engagement on social media. 

If you can, hire a photographer and/or videographer to follow you around for the day, or bring them to an event you are working on. You can get a ton of images/videos that you otherwise wouldn’t normally be able to capture. You can then use these photos and videos for any of the content that we talked about earlier!
