You can take each course individually or we recommend taking the full series for a significant discount to get the complete picture on how to manage and measure your organic and paid social media. You’ll learn practical and tactical techniques on how to use social media to complement your organization’s overall marketing strategy on all the major social platforms.
Part 1-Fundamentals: Foundations of Social Media, the Sales Funnel and Metrics
This workshop covers the role of organic social media in your marketing strategy. It is based on customer-centric marketing, the AIDA (Awareness, Interest, Desire, and Action) model, and the sales funnel (also known as the purchase cycle).
Customer-centric marketing requires content that appeals to your audience, so you’ll see how to find your audience’s demographics, interests, and behavioral data, along with tools for each of these and how to use this to create social posts.
A sales funnel also includes metrics. Business goals in social media include visibility, branding, and engagement. Social media goals can also include leads and sales. We will cover how to measure social media’s impact on your sales funnel, which metrics to track, a list of the main KPIs, and tracking tools.
We’ll also look at common features of all social media: profiles, posts, photos, #hashtags, account management tools, and analytics, with specific notes for each platform.
