Social media is driven by these three things...

Emotions Experiences Engagement The best brands tick all three boxes. If your content isn’t inspiring, educating, motivating, amusing, shocking, surprising, moving, empowering, educating or entertaining your audience... Then you’ll never realise the full potential of what social could do for you. If your content isn’t making people feel a part of something bigger than your social media page i.e. active participants in the community around your brand...
