There are so many resources available to social media marketers, so many hints, tips, and advice out there that it might seem easy to get your social media marketing efforts off the ground. However, new marketers or business owners trying to go it alone continue to make rookie mistakes. An infographic from Digital Marketing Philippinesoutlines basic mistakes to avoid.
The tips are fairly simple, but they speak to many problems in planning and approach that continue to damage social media marketing’s reputation. Whether it’s oversaturating your content, or missing the point of social networks, newer marketers make many mistakes, including the following 8:
- Having no social media strategy
- Creating accounts on too many platforms too soon
- Paying for fake followers
- Talking about nothing but the brand
- Using irrelevant and excessive hashtags
- Sharing too much in a short amount of time
- Forgetting to proofread
- Neglecting the “social” aspect of social media
These mistakes indicate a number of underlying problems that underlie the approach of new marketers. Signing up to too many accounts, using excessive hashtags, and only posting about the brand could indicate that a marketer is simply operating by a checklist gleaned from tip lists, or articles about the hottest social networks.
