Social Media Marketing: What it is and how to build your strategy

Assignment: Social Media Campaign

Use the following guidelines to create your own social media campaign for your business. Include the following in your campaign.

You will create a unified campaign that spans Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and Tiktok.

It could be:

  • Scavenger hunt (with an incentive)
  • Special Deal
  • NonProfit (specific event)
  • or more

Users should be led from one social media format to another – and then perhaps a location? Who knows?

This campaign must include:

  • 1. Five Facebook posts. Two with a professional-looking advertisement. (You can use Adobe CC or Spark.
  • 2. A formal video ad. – a commercial in Facebook and Instagram – storyboards are needed (Spark is perfect for this)
  • 3. One picture post. (All Platforms)
  • 4. Two text-only posts to X (twitter)
  • (text should be included with all posts for all platforms.)
  • 5. Instagram: Professional Advertisement. (All Platforms)
  • 6. Four other “behind-the-scenes pictures” of your business that people don’t normally see. (All Platforms)
  • 7. Five Tiktok or video posts on other social media platforms. Informal but with a professional “resolve” frame at the end of each
  • 8. All these posts need to lead toward your goal.
  • 9. Hashtags! Use them liberally in the post. See presentation.
  • Create ten 20 #hashtags for your brand.
  • Create ten hashtags for your campaign.
  • Incorporate these hashtags in all your social media platforms.

Remember the following:

  • 1. Be true to your brand. Each of your campaigns reflects your brand identity and values.
  • 2. Stay focused. Each campaign has a single, simple message at its core.
  • 3. They’re trackable. Each campaign has a distinct hashtag or channel, which means the companies can measure key indicators of success.
  • 4. They’re unique to each platform. Broadcasting identical content across every platform is less effort for your social media team, but it looks sloppy.
  • 5. They’re timely. Every campaign should be responsive to current events and activities
  • 6. They’re emotional. Be memorable, people should make you feel something when you see them.
  • 7. Be original. It would be best never to imitate someone else’s successful idea.
