SocialΒ is the key.
You might be wondering,Β βIs social media still relevant to a modern digital brand?β
Social isnβt justΒ relevant; itβs probably the most important part of a sustainable marketing strategy, and itβs usually the missing piece of the puzzle for brands that have plateaued and want to reach the next stage of growth.
A solid social strategy will help you:
Make Facebook your friend.
Did you know social sitesΒ donβtΒ like you taking users off their platforms? Thatβs why they make it so hard to scale those ad-to-offer campaigns you run to cold traffic. So instead, use ourΒ Engage & FilterΒ Method to segment your fans with content (which social sitesΒ love) then monetize them with offers. Thatβs how we dropped our CPA by 50% and got 2,000,000 free impressions.
Stand out from the competition.
The more crowded the marketplace gets, the harder it becomes to offer a product or service thatβs truly unique. Most competitors can match you on price, shipping and features, but if you use content to establish your authority in the marketplace and build a community of loyal fans β like BOOM!βs 355,000 Facebook fans and 700,000-person email list β thatβs something theyΒ canβtΒ copy.
Future-proof your brand.
A brand without content is just a βbusinessβ, and a business can stop working at any time: they have no way to get repeat purchases or grow a customer base, making them vulnerable to platform updates and algorithm changes. A real βbrandβ has a strong email list, authority in their market, and a community of loyal fans who buy their products again and again. This makes them practically bulletproof to changes in the marketplace.
Supercharge every part of your marketing.
The results of good social marketing donβt stop at your Facebook page; it helps every part of your business including your ads, emails and website. These all rely on a stream of fresh content, and a good social strategy produces those for you. Not only did BOOM!βs social generate $2.4 million in directly attributable sales, it also provided the content for our most profitable ad and email campaigns.
Hereβs the framework we added to our social strategy to generate $7.5 million worth of sales & visibility in just 12 months.
Last year, we used the I.C.O.S.A. Framework to generateΒ $2.4 millionΒ in direct sales from organic social.
But, by leveraging this same social content in ads and emails, we generated anΒ additional $5.1 million, bringing social mediaβs total impact toΒ $7.5 million in valueΒ across the business β not bad for a 5-person team!!
5-Step I.C.O.S.A. Social Framework
ο ΌSTEP 1: DEFINE YOUR BRAND VOICEIdeation:Β Start by listening to your customers (and your data) and join the conversation theyβreΒ alreadyΒ having.
ο ΌSTEP 2: IDENTIFY MAJOR CONTENT THEMESCreation:Β Produce content that drives that conversation and captures customer attention.
ο ΌSTEP 3: MAXIMIZE CAMPAIGN VISIBILITY & IMPACTΒ Optimization:Β Optimize your creative so itβs easily accessible on every platform your customers use.
ο ΌSTEP 4: LEVERAGE ALL PLATFORMSΒ Syndication:Β Post content on all relevant channels and in all media formats.
ο ΌSTEP 5: SCALE THE WINNERS. UPCYCLE THE LOSERS.Β Amplification:Β Use paid ads to amplify your content to engage more customers and grow the conversation.Β Repeat for scale.
I.C.O.S.A. is a simple, 5-step process that turns scattered Facebook posts and ineffective tweets into a high-impact social media machine.
And the value of this framework doesnβt end with social media. This machine can be the engine that drives every department in your business.
Because not only do these campaigns produce measurable dollars for our brand, they also produce the content that we use in all of our top-performing ads and emails, as well as on our sales pages and throughout our website.
Now, we want to teach you (or your employee)Β how to master this frameworkΒ so you can build a social team that drives substantial growth for your business.
All YOU need to do is commit to learning and implementing the material in this on-demand course.
