It takes zero talent to respond to every single person who comments on one of your posts. We as humans love it when we get a notification, and responding helps people stay engaged, and boosts the interaction amount of the post when the algorithm recognizes it as an authentic interaction. You would be amazed at how far you could get by just simply interacting with everyone who’s engaging with your brand.

Be Authentic

DVR was invented because we want to enjoy the things we like on our own time, and uninterrupted. People don’t want to see ads. Your posts should be thoughtful to represent you, and your brand in a way that doesn’t feel like another advertisement in their news feed, otherwise they will continue to scroll past.

Remember your success will ultimately be determined by whether or not people view your brand as one that sells products, or one that solves problems. People buy products and services or donate to causes only after they have read or heard the words that make them want to do those things. Be the Guide to your customers and use your social media to help them solve their problems.
