5 reasons it needs to be. 

While it might sound a tad crazy, a lot of people still don’t know the power of, or formula to posting online, especially for online marketing purposes! And with social media being literally the front door to your brand or business these days, here are a few reasons why your digital strategy needs to not only get along with, but be the same as your business strategy. 

> To build credibility and create rapport: One of the first things many people do these days when they hear of a new product or person is to look them up on Instagram. This is why your social media strategy should really match and mirror, or complete and compliment your business strategy. So that it helps you to connect with your audience online, and inspire reliability and relationship across all platforms, be that between your website, online shops or socials.

 

> To clearly explain what it is you do. In the clutter of the online world, people will know if they want to follow you within about 20 seconds of seeing your Instagram feed, so make sure that yours is clear and concise but true to you! From your bio to URL, profile pic and first 9 squares; Clarity is key. We want people to want to follow you because they know what it is you do. We want people to feel like they know you and feel like they can buy from you, so clarity across and between your strategies is key.

> To direct your followers to your offerings.Think of this as holding hands and leading your followers where it is that you want them to go… The main reason businesses implement a social media strategy in the first place is to leverage the large amount of traffic that social networks attract each day. You want to make sure your content reflects your business intent and that your posts lead your potential customers where you need them to go, be it your website, address or shop. The call to action from your social media strategy should be strong enough to lead people where you want them to go and have them convert to paying customers.
