Image
As a business 2020 it’s really important to be able to inspire people. This can be from content, commercials or from the leaders of the company. In this blog post I’m going to teach you about a method called “What. How, Why”. This method was invented  by a guy called Simon Sinek. Every time I’m thinking about the right way of building a brand this method comes to my mind.  So what is this magical method? It’s actually a pretty simple way of thinking when marketing your company to the world. Think of a circle with three categories, what, how and why.

The importance of being honest on social media!

Image
The importance of being honest instead of faking it is so huge. There are millions of posts being uploaded every minute. The internet is full of posts looking exactly the same. Every single day when I log into my account on Instagram I see the same tips and tricks but with different backgrounds from all the creators. I don’t even want to call these accounts creators. If you're uploading pictures without a personal touch the only thing you really do is copying ideas and pasting them on your page. You can still get a big following but the chances are as low as winning the lottery. Stop being stuck in how social media worked five years ago. A very important question to ask yourself when managing your account and thinking about what to post is if you would have followed it yourself. When you look at the posts you post. Do you think you would have followed the account if there was someone else uploading the same content? This is something a lot of people struggle with and also explains ...

Engagement is the key! | How to gain more engagement on your content!

Image
One of the hardest things about starting a new social media page is to gain engagement. If you are posting consistent every day the followers and likes will come automatically but sadly not always the engagement. What do you mean by engagement and why is it important you may wonder? Engagement on a social media post is when the viewer interact with your post in any way. A like is one way of engagement but unfortunately the quickest one. Instagram is tracking the time we spend on every post and the amount of engagement. That’s one part why a comment or a 8 picture scroll through carousels is a better engagement for you than a like. It just takes more of the viewers time on your post.  Think of it like this. Every social platforms goal is to make you stay on the platform for the longest amount of time as possible. So if your audience take time commenting and scrolling on your pictures the platforms want to show more of your content to them to keep them longer on the site. Another gre...

Image
Is building a personal brand important? As a salesman or business owner a personal brand is a great way to increase your credibility. If people have a clear picture of your goals, opinions and brand they are more likely to trust you. Unless you inventing something completely new your sales are going to depend on how you presenting your business to the customers. Of course you can make it without building a personal brand but if your product have a lot of competition it helps you really much to stand out of the crowd by building a personal brand.  We all know some YouTubers, artists and influencers earning millions of dollars only in merch sales. This is not because their products usually are better than the competition. This is often because they have created a personal brand that people like so much they are ready to buy anything to support them. In case you think it’s different for "less artistic" businesses you can look at people like Elon Musk and Gary Vaynerchuck. They d...
