🔥Social Media News🔥

My top 5 takeaways from Andy Lambert and Luan Wise's superb monthly update:

1️⃣ If your target market is under 25 it is worth getting your head around BeReal
2️⃣ User-Generated Content outperforms conventional ads on the same topic by 20-50% - are you actively working with creators?
3️⃣ Snapchat is not to be forgotten, particularly if you need to reach 13-18 year-olds
4️⃣ TikTok users spend an average of 25.7 hours per month on the platform (3 x more than Instagram)
5️⃣ Interactivity and participation is the direction of travel for Social Media - TikTok's new interactive ads are a great example and a powerful new format.

Plus, Elon's $44 billion purchase of Twitter will have a massive impact, but it will be 2023 before this materialises.

I hope this is helpful, feel free to share.

Cheers, Nicola 🌱

💃🏼 Yippie I have graduated from social prf 🎉

I learned about the EIGHT essential psychological triggers that spur customers into action and get real results 🔥

This incredible programme was designed by two of the best in the business Laura Davis and Laura Moore.

As a graduate, I can design psychology-driven social media marketing that achieves business goals.

Life is busy and it is never easy to find the time to study on top of running my business, but WOW I'm so glad I did.

I am already seeing the benefits, plus I loved expanding my network of incredibly talented social media marketers 🤓

The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation says that acts of kindness can include "just about anything" and that no gesture is too small.

Have you heard people talk about Brand Voice?

It's not just jargon! It's a brilliant way in one clear document to outline all the essential information about your brand and the language you use to build relationships with your customers.

This image is an example of the questions I work through with my clients to nail their tone of voice.

Which would you tick?

Wow, Eddie Redmayne in Cabaret is phenomenal 🔥

I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of the hottest tickets in town yesterday.

This production is a fantastic marketing masterclass from start to finish:
🎟before tickets went on sale, a huge buzz was created with the casting of Eddie Redmayne
🍾 thoughtful, enticing extras were included in the sales process
🎷 the product was full of surprise and delight (including schnapps on arrival and sc****ly clad talented musicians in unusual positions!)
🕴a minor technical glitch was quickly acknowledged, owned, and apologised for

The whole experience is 100% worth the premium price - I highly recommend it.

Let's talk awareness days!

For me, these do have a place in content planning, however, as with so many good things, the key is to "use in moderation" 😉

If Carlsberg did a freelance Friday lunch it would be this!

It was fabulous to hook up with the talented Natalie Rockall, at the stunning Rockwater Hove.

We chatted about freelance life, email, social media marketing, yoga, and travel.

Do you like our uniform? 😂

Happy New Year lovelies 😀

What are your hopes and dreams for 2022?

I'm a fan of setting goals and thought I'd share mine for this year - you can see how fascinating Boy Wonder found them!

Physical
✅ Walk, run, or crawl 10 kilometers a day (2021 I averaged 9.1, so it's an achievable stretch)
Mental
✅ Participate as a Beta Tester in an exciting new programme!
Spiritual
✅ Be kind to me, delight in each day, keep practicing RESPONDING rather than REACTING - any tips on this one gratefully received 🙏
Social
✅ Have a damn good bash to celebrate turning 50 in October 🎉

This year I've framed my goals in the quadrants that I try to complete each day. I find them a handy litmus test for a healthy balance - sometimes it's easier said than done!!

Sending you positive energy and a virtual hug (cause you can never have too many) for a happy and healthy 2022 💋

It's time to eat, drink and be merry 🎉

Wishing you a happy, healthy Christmas lovelies, look forward to seeing you on the other side 💋

I guess it's timely to say, "sorry, there's no room at the Inn!"

My diary is full until Jan 2022, but you can grab a spot on my waiting list 😀

If you're looking to outsource your social media, or you're after some 1:1 training, email nicolacarver@gogetsocial.co.uk or DM me.

If the past 2 years have taught me anything it is how much I value my high street.

I am passionate about the importance of supporting our independent businesses. So wanted to draw attention to the brilliant campaign Holly Tucker has created.

💛💜 COLOUR FRIDAY 💙💚

An exciting alternative to Black Friday!

Join me in buying AT LEAST ONE CHRISTMAS GIFT from an independent business 🙏

PS If you are an independent business, head to Holly Tucker's Instagram profile. In her bio, you will find a link to lots of useful materials to help you to promote Colour Friday 🎉

I love Social Media both personally and professionally, but it's like the poem my mum used to tell me:

"There was a little girl who had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead, and when she was good she was very very good, but when she was bad she was horrid!"

Social Media Kindness Day has been set up in honour of the late Love Island UK presenter Caroline Flack, on what would have been her birthday.

As Mind Charity brilliantly said this morning:
"Every time we use social media, we leave a mark - so let's leave a kind one."

Mark Zuckerberg has announced that from 1 December Facebook will become Meta!

The change comes as part of his plans to build a "metaverse" - an online world where people can game, work and communicate in a virtual environment.

It's only the parent company that's changing its name though, Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp will all still exist as platforms. only the parent company that owns them.

The social media giant says the new name will better encompass what it does.
