Millions upon millions of people take to social media on a daily basis. This gives you millions of chances to engage an audience with your content. However, not all posts will perform the same. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to write social media posts the right way.
Our guest speaker, Bridget Willard, will show you the most effective way to engage your target audience on sites like Twitter and Facebook.
Why is Social Media So Vital?
The more you grow the brand, the more people will see your posts, it’s that simple. Those who follow your social presence are most likely the ones who are going to buy your products or use your services.
In this webinar, Bridget talks about the “10/10/10 Twitter Rule,” by Scott Stratten. What this means is that, statistically, about 10% of your followers are online at any given time.
Then, approximately 10% of those people will see something like a Tweet.
A large part of this is probably because you can fill up your social feed rather quickly. This means anything that someone you follow posts can quickly get buried deep in the feed.
Lastly, about 10% of those people will respond.
For example, let’s say I have 500 followers on Twitter. Taking this rule into account, that means only 50 are online at any given time, and only 5 will respond, whether it be a like or a comment.
That’s even if the post is something relevant to the type of content I produce.
What’s In This Social Media Webinar?

Why Formatting Matters
The way you format anything online greatly matters. Whether you’re publishing a blog post, uploading a YouTube video, or writing a social media post, how content is formatted affects how it’s accepted.
When it comes to social media, people often approach it with the same attitude as written content on a blog: skimming the context.
