List-post
social media list post
A great way to drive traffic to your social media channels is by creating a list post. A list post is when you recommend several books, websites, video reviews of new products or anything that will be of value for the people in your industry.
An example of this is creating a list of entrepreneurial books that will help better the lives of those in business or people looking to enhance their knowledge in the field.
How to Post
social media how to post
Creating a how-to post for your industry is a great way to get more people to visit your social media pages and website. A how-to post simply explains how to do a certain task be it by creating a picture graphic, video, or creating a step by step process. It is important to make the how-to post by describing the process in the simplest terms so that your audience doesn’t get overwhelmed by the instruction if it is a complicated task.
As an example of a how-to post would be something like, how to make kids slime at home, or how to make your own birch wood table. Anything that you feel would be of interest to your market or people in general.
Case Study Post

A case study post is something to consider when creating your social media plan. This makes your post most credible and your audience can expect something more than just a funny meme. A case study post subconsciously tells your audience that the post is about something that has been done and proven to work as the results speak for themselves.
A case study is especially important if you are trying to sell more of your product or service. Let your audience know that your product, service, or idea actually helped the types of clients you are wanting to acquire.
FAQ Post

If your customers always ask the same questions or know what questions people would ask about your service before they ask it, an FAQ post would be a good one for you.
If you don’t know which questions a potential customer would ask you can use a website like Quora where people go to ask questions and get answers. This way you know what questions to answer before they ask them. You can also get some great ideas from people asking the same questions and add that to a blog article or social media post.
This also sets you up as an authority for the topic in which you cover and others will look to your advice and pages as a way to find the answers they were looking for.
Checklist post

If there are parts of your business that are repetitive perhaps it would be a good idea to create a checklist post that could include something fun for the holidays or getting ready for work. Such as coffee? Check. Nice attire? Check. Hair Brushed? Check. Good attitude…keys? Check.
There are great ways for your audience to connect with your business. It is also a great way to show that your business has a fun personality and is not so serious all of the time.
Series Post

When adopting a social media strategy for your business you should also consider doing a series of posts. Anything related to your field that would take up a lot of pages can be made in bite sizes. To make it fun first announce that you will be doing a series of posts for the topic then posts the parts once a day.
This will also work well for email. You can take four emails on a subject and add them to your calendar and send them out one day after each other so that your readers will have something to look forward to
