More companies appreciate the need to mark an online presence through social media platforms. While many people rely on their phones for information and convenience, they are exposed to more products, which usually means higher competition. Therefore, companies must carefully create strategies on how to create social media content and how they will monitor the performance of their approach.

Ronn Torossian, Chairman of 5WPR, explains these essential social media elements, why they are crucial to companies, and how to go about them. Here is a breakdown of Torossian’s view on strategy and monitoring for companies looking to start or upgrade their social media marketing planning.

Strategy

The core foundation of any initiative is planning, which is no different for social media marketing. Regarding strategy, Ronn Torossian suggests:

  • Defining the objectives of the company.

The first step is to understand the primary company goals and whether or not social media is viable to get them there. The company’s ultimate objectives also define the methods and approach the company can use on social media platforms. For example, one company may primarily turn to social media platforms to generate organic traffic to its website. At the same time, another may focus on using different platforms to promote the brand by boosting awareness.

  • Focus on different platforms.

Since companies have different needs and goals, it is crucial to understand that social media marketing optimization is about quality rather than quantity. This means a company does not have to use all the available social media platforms. Instead, they can maximize on the few they are already on and generate better results. Ronn suggests figuring out what you want to do on social media, then identifying the platforms you want to do them on.

  • Figure out the target audience.

Companies must understand customer behavior and patterns while selecting a social media platform. For example, if a company is targeting a younger demographic, they know better than to focus their attention on older platforms, such as Facebook. Ideally, most of them are on the latest platforms or the trendiest platforms, depending on the moment.

  • Figure out the type of content.

Once a company knows where to get its target audience, it can go ahead and design the most appropriate content to capture their attention and match their interests. It is also imperative for companies to focus on creating more engagement to raise their conversion rate.

Monitoring

Once a company establishes a robust foundation through formulating the best strategies, there is a need to keep track of the growing numbers and keep up with the engagement. Essentially, as a company becomes more visible, more customers become invested. Some leave comments, others send direct messages, while others boost the company’s marketing efforts by leaving reviews and tagging them while creating their content.

With the buzz of activities going on, it is easy for companies to miss out on some of it, thus the need to invest in monitoring tools. These tools do more than notify companies of information relevant to them. Aside from listening, they also help companies:

  1. Assess the performance of their social media efforts.

Social media listening tools help companies weigh their social media productivity based on the reception of their content. That also helps them adjust their strategy to align with consumer demand and, if necessary, restructure their entire approach. It also defines the direction needed while designing new content toward achieving its goals.

2.Keep track of the content-generated engagement.

Companies can actively engage their customers by creating and distributing or participating in their audience’s content on the various social media platforms. Fortunately, these platforms make it easier to follow engagements through various elements, including mentions, tags, and comments which help them keep track of every conversation. Additionally, numbers speak for the companies thanks to the amount of followers, likes, and shares. These key features play a huge part in helping them earn higher rankings, which inherently generates more traffic their way.

While an excellent strategy paves the way for social media success, constantly monitoring the different platforms promises long-term results. The two elements complement each other while empowering businesses to support other promotional efforts and marketing campaigns.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
