SOCIAL MEDIA
MARKETING
INTRODUCTION
Social media marketing (SMM) is a form of internet marketing
that uses social media apps as a marketing tool.
These social media platforms enable brands to connect with
their audience to:
•build a brand;
•increase sales;
•drive traffic to a website; and
•build a community of followers to share and engage with
content.
5 PILLARS OF
SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING

Planning and
publishing
Listening and
engagement
Analytics and
reporting
Advertising
SOCIAL
STRATEGY
With any marketing campaign or activity, an
appropriate strategy should be laid out in
advance. Organizations need to determine
the goals of the program, the channels that
will be used and what types of content will be
shared.
PLANNING AND
PUBLISHING
After establishing a strategy, it is time to begin
publishing. This can be as simple as posting a new
blog post, sharing information about an upcoming
event or posting a new product video. But being
consistent is the key to an effective SMM program. To
build an audience, organizations should post
frequently to their page. Posting relevant content
consistently will keep the audience coming back for
more.
Content that organizations post to social media should
align with other marketing promotions. Tools such as
Hootsuite, HubSpot and Sprout Social enable
marketers to schedule their posts at the appropriate
time.
LISTENING AND
ENGAGEMENT
Businesses that create activity on social platforms can see
growth in interaction and conversations about the brand and
products. Users will comment on and share posts, tag the
company in their own posts, and even begin communicating
through the instant messaging functionalities. These types
of interactions are ideal because there are notifications in
place to alert social media managers. This enables them to
practice good customer service, which in turns boosts the
customer experience.
ANALYTICS AND
REPORTING
As more content is published and the audience expands, it
is a good idea to continuously measure performance.
Questions to ask include the following:
•Which posts are getting the most engagement?
•Where are a brand's followers from?
The success of any marketing program is dependent on its
data and analytics outputs. A marketing team can use this
information to make more informed decisions on future
campaigns and take advantage of what works.
ADVERTISING
Much of social media marketing is free -- with the exception
of resource time and specialized tools. Building an audience
and publishing content on free social media sites is a great
way to achieve marketing goals, but as the program grows,
so does the budget.
Paid marketing features can be very valuable to
organizations. They can target their advertisements at
audiences based on many factors, including demographic
information, retargeting and behaviors.
