#040 - Three Habits to Increase Your Social Media Productivity

Social media communication is fast and constant.  You should have a foundation of consistent posts to be active on your favorite social media platform. In this week's episode, I go over the three habits you should implement today to increase your social media productivity. To sum it up, the three habits you should implement today to be efficient and save you time with your social media posts are: Plan Your Content Stay focused by creating a theme for your content. Having a theme per month is an easy way to break things down. Your theme will guide you on how you'd like to communicate on your favorite social media platform. If you are just sitting there with a blank canvas without any inspiration or direction, then the canvas usually stays blank. When you set a plan for yourself, you don't have to wait until inspiration strikes on what to post, just follow your plan. Schedule Your Posts Once you have your plan in place, then it makes it easy to schedule your posts. There is no need to do your baseline consistent posts in real time. To leverage your time, you should set up a system to schedule your posts. You save time in the long run if you set aside a little block of time and do your posting for the week or even the month all at once. It's much more effective than starting and stopping what you are doing in the week just to make one social post. Delegate Delegate your routine, consistent social posts to free your time for important engagement opportunities. Your focus shifts to higher level business developing and planning. Advantages about delegating are you get an outside perspective and you are freed of writer's block.   When you systemize your content strategy, your marketing will become more efficient and effective. Your system will lead to becoming more intentional with your marketing messages. You will learn what messages resonate with your followers and when you make investments in paid advertising, your message will be more effective.
