We already know the importance of being present on social networks. However, it is not enough just to know it, you have to put it into practice. And to put it into practice, the best thing to do is to establish a social media plan that helps us define the strategies we want to carry out to capture our audience through these platforms. Let's see it!
Social media is the set of resources, platforms, applications and media through which brands will be able to build their Inbound Marketing plan, exchange information, generate conversation and establish contacts with all potential users interested in interacting with the brand.
However,although the name may give rise to confusion, social media is not only social networks, but also includes websites, forums, blogs, etc. Despite this, it is social networks that are the most important when it comes to establishing our inbound marketing strategy. But why?
All companies or brands that want to gain a certain prominence and be in contact with all types of audiences they want to target must have some presence on social networks. Social networks are one of the main means of communication in this 21st century and not taking advantage of them to attract customers would be a mistake on our part.
Being present and active on the same sites as users encourages proximity and can help us to eliminate barriers between the public and the brand, and this is one of the main objectives of our inbound marketing strategy.
That is why focusing part of our Inbound Marketing strategy on social media and, more specifically, on social networks, will help us to generate a good relationship with our audience. What this tool allows is to create an immediate contact, dialogue in real time with the brand and help users to make a decision more quickly since, in the times we live in, we have become accustomed to wanting an immediate response when we search for something on the internet. It is therefore important to know that these answers will be provided by the social networks themselves, blogs, or even the brand's own website that has a direct chat(a chatbot).
But to be present on social networks, we must have a plan that helps us to know how we are going to act, what we want to communicate through the networks, in which we are going to position ourselves more strongly, etc. A social media marketing plan or social media plan is a document in which the essential points of a social media strategy are described.
