The 3 basic principles you need to know about growing a Car traders social media page are simple...

1. Systems to stay organised
There's one super simple system that's going to make sure your on top of all your social media content creation & stay consistent... A content calendar, yes you hear these words everywhere and that's because of the sheer importance and role it plays in having a strong social media channel... A social media content calendar is exactly what it says it is, a calendar that says everything you're going to post on what day. Having one of these not only lets you plan ahead, but also helps you evaluate your content plan before you post.
Another cheeky tip we have for staying on top of consistency is having "backup" posts, these are extra posts that you always have on reserve just in case you can't make the ones you wanted (trust us, it happens a lot more than you think)
2. Cut through content
If you're unfamiliar with how the meta algorithm decides if you go viral, allow me to explain, Your content is pushed to a focus group of followers and non followers, if the engagement % & average watch time is high in this focus group,the algorithm will push you to a bigger focus group and the cycle continues (this is a very very simple breakdown of a very very confusing algorithm). This is why you need "cut through content".
Put simply cut through content is content veiwers...
- Want to engage with
- Haven't seen before
- will stop scrolling and view for a long time
Its important for any social media strategy to have a plethora of "cut through" content ideas to succeed.
