It looks spammy.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get us wrong.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s absolutely imperative you share your blog content after you write it (more on your blog shortly). Social media is a great place to do that.<\/p>\n<p>However, for a lively account that doesn\u2019t look like it\u2019s been taken over by bots, you need to post more than just links back to your site.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3602 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/company-review.png\" alt=\"increase brand awareness\" width=\"624\" height=\"284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/company-review.png 624w, https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/company-review-300x137.png 300w, https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/company-review-595xh.png 595w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Image courtesy of <\/em><em>Agorapulse<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When you see something of interest you think your audience would appreciate it, post it!<\/p>\n<p>Yes, sometimes this means sharing the content of your competitors.<\/p>\n<p>This may seem counterintuitive to you at first.<\/p>\n<p>After all, aren\u2019t you giving them free publicity?<\/p>\n<p>In a way, you are.

Create a Content Calendar and Stick with It<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In the last tip, we talked a lot about sharing your blog content.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, you have blog content to share.<\/p>\n<p>If not, that\u2019s one of the first things you have to change if you want to increase your company\u2019s <strong>brand recognition<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Just like a dead or abandoned social media account isn\u2019t acceptable in the eyes of consumers, the same is true of a dead blog.<\/p>\n<p>When customers find your blog and see it hasn\u2019t been updated in months, this comes across as careless to them.<\/p>\n<p>If you can\u2019t take the time to update your blog, then how can you solve the customer\u2019s problems?<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t be surprised if you lose these people to the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you post twice weekly, once a week, or every two weeks (no more seldom than that, though), you need an editorial calendar.<\/p>\n<p>This is where you slot in which posts go where. You should also plan your posts ahead of time so you\u2019re not winging it every week.<\/p>\n<p>That gets stressful fast, making you more likely to burn out and stop updating the blog.<\/p>\n<p>You should certainly share your weekly blog posts o<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">n<\/span> social media.<\/p>\n<p>Link them in your email newsletters as relevant as well.<\/p>\n<p>Encourage your audience to spread the article around.<\/p>\n<p>What kind of blog content should you write?<\/p>\n<p>Here are six types of posts to inspire you:<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Entertainment Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We recommend you use entertainment posts sparingly.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re good for off-weeks when you have no other ideas. If you know readership will be low for a week because it\u2019s a holiday, throw out an entertainment post as well.<\/p>\n<p>These are supposed to be more funny than informative.<\/p>\n<p>They have their place, but they should not be a pillar of your editorial calendar.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Media Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Oppositely, media posts are something you <em>do <\/em>want to write often.<\/p>\n<p>These posts are rife with videos, original images, and infographics.<\/p>\n<p>The media augments the copy, providing a comprehensive article that makes your company look authoritative.<\/p>\n<p>These articles are also very shareable.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Cheat Sheet Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Another type of very shareable article are cheat sheet posts.<\/p>\n<p>List posts would fall under this category.<\/p>\n<p>These articles aren\u2019t often super detailed, but they\u2019re easy to read. That appeals to busy customers.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Personal Spotlight Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Who in your company is doing exemplary work?<\/p>\n<p>You can highlight them and their achievements in a personal spotlight post.<\/p>\n<p>While you won\u2019t write these kinds of articles maybe more than once or twice a year, they\u2019re good to have.<\/p>\n<p>Personal spotlight posts satiate your audience\u2019s natural curiosity for a behind-the-scenes glimpse into your small business.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Instructional Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>While cheat sheet posts may not go into a lot of detail, that\u2019s not true of an instructional post.<\/p>\n<p>These tell you everything you need to know about doing a certain task, including items you might need and steps to follow.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #666699;\">Newsjacking Posts<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/powerful-marketing-strategies\">marketing<\/a> buzzword that\u2019s catching steam is \u201cnewsjacking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This simply means taking a recent news item and making it applicable to your company.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not easy, but if done right, it can get you a lot of traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Do keep in mind that this traffic boost is very short-term since the life of a news story is often short.<\/p>\n<p>If you need yet another content idea, you can always try\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fasc-button fasc-size-medium fasc-type-flat fasc-rounded-medium ico-fa fasc-ico-before fa-arrow-circle-right\" style=\"background-color: #33809e; color: #ffffff;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/content-marketing-funnel\/\">Read also: Content Marketing Funnels: Unlock Your Brand&#8217;s Potential<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">5. Write Expert Roundups<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes the best way to get your own name out there is to put other people\u2019s names out first. Writing an expert roundup will do just that.<\/p>\n<p>What is an expert roundup?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s somewhat self-explanatory.<\/p>\n<p>You pick a topic, like marketers who are changing the face of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/how-crm-boost-b2b-marketing-efforts\/\">B2B marketing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Then you\u2019d do some research, find 20 or 30 such marketers, and write a small blurb about each of them.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019d also attach the social profiles for each marketer and include a headshot.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s just one example of an expert roundup.<\/p>\n<p>You might want to slot these posts into your editorial calendar at least quarterly.<\/p>\n<p>One perk of writing an expert roundup is it\u2019s quite easy.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll spend more time researching which people to include than anything else.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest benefit is how you can increase your small business brand presence.<\/p>\n<p>You may be wondering how, especially if you\u2019re writing about other people and not yourself?<\/p>\n<p>It all has to do with outreach.<\/p>\n<p>Once the article is published, you can reach out to every marketer on your list via email.<\/p>\n<p>In the email, you\u2019ll want to include a link to the article and ask if the marketer wouldn\u2019t mind sharing it with their audience.<\/p>\n<p>If the marketer does agree to share the article, then great!<\/p>\n<p>That benefits you. For every marketer that shares, your company could be introduced to 20 or 30 new audiences at best.<\/p>\n<p>Even if only a few marketers agree to share your expert roundup, that\u2019s still plenty of fresh, free exposure for your small business.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">6.

Use Targeted Social Advertis<\/strong>ing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The above methods have all been relatively free until now.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019d have to pay for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/email-marketing-automation-workflows\/\">email automation<\/a> for outreach, social media software, and A\/B testing if you don\u2019t have those services. Otherwise, our other tips haven\u2019t cost a cent.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s get into a paid method: targeted social advertising.<\/p>\n<p>This is a lucrative area for sure. <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hootsuite.com\/social-media-advertising-stats\/\">Hootsuite<\/a> says that, by this year, companies will drop $17.34 <em>billion <\/em>on social media advertising.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s well-placed ads on Instagram or a Facebook newsfeed, targeted social advertising can help you get your name out.<\/p>\n<p>These days, all the big <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/strong-digital-brand\/\">social media platforms<\/a> have their own advertising systems.<\/p>\n<p>You decide how much you\u2019re going to pay, what kind of ad you want, and even who sees it.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a completely controlled environment that puts a lot of the power in your hands.<\/p>\n<p>Before you can succeed in targeted social advertising, you need to have first created <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/buyer-persona-get-started-making\/\">customer personas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Some people call these avatars. With these personas, you\u2019re organizing your audience into buckets based on certain criteria.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the customer\u2019s gender?<\/p>\n<p>Where are they located?<\/p>\n<p>What is their job and how much money do they make a year?<\/p>\n<p>Why do they need your product\/service (pain points)?<\/p>\n<p>You can then use this data to determine who would be most receptive to your advertising.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you have to figure out which social platform most of your audience is using.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s several, you\u2019ll have to buy ads on each platform.<\/p>\n<p>Now comes the step you have to put arguably the most effort into the ads themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Like we mentioned, most social media platforms let you create your ads from the ground up, giving you plenty of customization options.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure the ad is as appealing as possible, both visually and in terms of copy.<\/p>\n<p>A\/B test several versions of the ad to pick the best one.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to track your analytics to see how well the ad performed once it goes live!<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">8. Partake in Influencer Marketing<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Influencers are important people. They have a large audience of followers who listen to their suggestions.<\/p>\n<p>If an influencer says to try a product, then most of their audience will.<\/p>\n<p>If that product happens to be yours, then you\u2019ve got it made in the shade.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why you should consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/benefits-of-influencer-marketing\">influencer marketing<\/a> on your road to getting more <strong>brand awareness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>What exactly is influencer marketing?<\/p>\n<p>Good question!<\/p>\n<p>This is when you set up an arrangement with an important figure to get your products\/services out to a bigger audience.<\/p>\n<p>How do you even find an influencer to work with?<\/p>\n<p>Well, first we recommend you do some homework.<\/p>\n<p>Make a list of influencers whose work gels with yours.<\/p>\n<p>Jot down their contact information, too, as you\u2019re going to need it.<\/p>\n<p>Now you want to craft a great pitch to get them to work with you.<\/p>\n<p>Some influencers just need an inspiring story to agree to share your products\/services among their audience.<\/p>\n<p>Others will require payment if you want to work with them.<\/p>\n<p>It all depends on who the influencer is and how big their reach is.<\/p>\n<p>As a small business or startup, you may have to budget for influencer marketing, but it can be a worthwhile venture.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #993300;\">9. Write and Accept Guest Posts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Above, we discussed the concept of expert roundup.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to create content in a similar vein, then try writing and accepting guest posts.<\/p>\n<p>As the name tells you, guest posts are slotted into your editorial calendar but are written by someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Guest posts are two-sided free exposure. When you post someone else\u2019s content on your blog, you give your audience a new company to look into.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s then generally agreed upon that the other company will let you write for them.<\/p>\n<p>This introduces you to many new leads and potential customers from the other company\u2019s audience.<\/p>\n<p>If you often get stumped on what to include in your editorial calendar, guest posts are great.<\/p>\n<p>They buy you more time between your own articles.<\/p>\n<p>That said, you may be doubly busy with content as you craft great guest posts to go on other company\u2019s sites.<\/p>\n<p>To begin a guest post arrangement, find several marketers or entrepreneurs whose sites you enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Write them a pitch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engagebay.com\/blog\/email-marketing-campaigns\">email<\/a>, showing some of your past work and imploring you two enter a guest post-deal.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure you outline what the benefits of the arrangement will be.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re lucky, the other party will be as interested in working with you as you are working with them.<\/p>\n<p>If not, keep trying until someone agrees.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">10.

Share your unique <strong>brand narrative<\/strong>, your mission, and the value you bring to customers&#8217; lives.<\/p>\n<p>By effectively communicating your brand&#8217;s story, you can elicit emotional responses and foster loyalty among your customers.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, don&#8217;t overlook the power of partnerships and collaborations.
