Did you know that the average person spends a little more than six and a half hours online each day? And, of that the time spent online, approximately two and a half hours of it is devoted to social media? As global trends show, those numbers are rising by the year.
The world has watched over the last fifteen years or so as social media has increased in popularity and found its foothold in the PR, marketing and advertising verticals. As it has, strategies for promoting brands on social media platforms have risen in sophistication accordingly. Gone are the days when you could simply publish a piece of content and have it automatically delivered to the feeds of your entire audience base, or leave your direct message inbox unmonitored.
Over time, social media has been honed into a strategic marketing tool, with each channel claiming its own use case, best practices and platform nuances. On top of this, social’s importance in the wider internet ecosystem has cast a wide net: social media can now run ads on associated sites, be a main traffic driver for websites, or improve your search ranking. It’s a lot to take in and even more to manage well – which is where B Public Relations comes in.
