In this lesson you’ll learn to

  • I focus on one or two platforms
  • My content mixes educate, prove, humanise and offer
  • My short videos hook in two seconds
  • I reply quickly and have a lead link in my profile
  • I repurpose content

Choose platforms by audience

• LinkedIn — B2B decision-makers.

• Facebook — local communities, older consumers, groups.

• Instagram and TikTok — visual products, younger audiences, short video.

• YouTube — how-to and search-driven video.

Be excellent on one or two platforms rather than average on six.

Content mix

• Educate — tips, how-tos, myth-busting.

• Prove — results, reviews, before/after.

• Humanise — team, behind the scenes.

• Offer — a clear invitation to act (no more than about one in five posts).

Short video

Short vertical videos with a strong first two seconds, captions and a single message get the most reach on most platforms.
