What can BRAND-AID bring you?... EXPERTISE. Professional management of social media means that you get the team that knows all social media platforms, produces content efficiently, quickly creates the structure and trains you on how to manage it on receiving end.

24.01.2022 TOP 5 SKILLS YOUR STAFF SHOULD HAVE FOR SOCIAL MEDIA As we surf socials, we notice the need to educate business owners on the attributes staff should have to look after socials. Here are the most important skills your employees need: STRATEGIC THINKING... Social Media doesn't start with posts - it starts with the strategy. Your employee needs to see a bigger picture! Secret tip: approach a Social Media company to develop a strategy, then provide it to your staff. Usually, a Social Media company will educate your team on how to apply it. VISUAL TASTE Social Media is ONLY successful if your visual is clean. Your staff member doesn't have to be a graphic designer, but he needs to have an aesthetic taste. Secret tip: when hiring your staff, bring a pack of 30 photos related to your industry: 10 photos taken on phone camera with low light, 10 photos taken on phone camera with natural light, 10 photos taken on the professional camera. Ask your candidate to pick 12-15 that best describe your offer to the public. COPYWRITING Visual makes your prospects stop, and COPY does the rest of the work. Excellent written communication skills are a must. Secret tip: There are lots of selling formulas in place for copywriting. Make sure your staff is educated on those. TECH SAVVY Your staff member will have to work both on computer and phone. There are lots of phone apps that can adjust photos quality, do graphics, turn images into videos, make cool video clips. Make sure your team member can easily navigate between those. Secret tip: Today, phones do a great job, so you don't need a photoshop expert. GREAT COMMUNICATOR Content needs to feel like a conversation with a customer. Your staff needs to know how to engage. Secret tip: quiet people are often good with written communication. We know how to train great Social Media Managers! Give us a call if you need your staff trained. -: 0473797379 @.. #brandaid_socialmediamanager #growwithbrandaid See more

22.01.2022 TA AND HOW TO FIND IT? What does any business start with? A client, of course! Are you confident that you know a "portrait" of your client? The first step of setting up your business is to find your Target Audience (TA). TA is a group of people who might need your product/service. The first step of any marketing campaign (including Social Media Marketing) is to find the TA. Here is how:... Identify your point of difference and the main traits of your business - at Brand-Aid, we use a set of 117 questions that we ask a company before we start creating an SMM strategy. Create descriptive profiles of your target audience personas - the pro-tip here is to create a few profiles and go into a very detailed description of each potential buyer. Research and ask questions - even if you don't have established clients to base your research upon - just talk to people, ask in what business / life situations they would engage in your type of services. Trust your TA research to professionals who understand the process intimately and dont follow general assumptions. The proper identification of your TA will save you time and money! To find out more about SMM strategy go to #growwithbrandaid What is your TA? See more

22.01.2022 VISUAL CONTENT What is visual content for social media? How to create it?... What things to consider? The visual content is one of the most important parts of a social media strategy (SM strategy). It is the first thing that grasps the attention of social media users so it should be very thought after. Some useful tips for you: Not all professional pictures work for social media - some incredible professional photo sessions look amazing printed out, but wont work within algorithms. If you are creating visual content for your business page, graphic design can look great but do not overcrowd your feed with too much graphics, also remember, that graphics don't go into the top. Maintain your feed within the same colour scheme (make it complimentary to your logo design). If the colours of your imagery aren't consistent, it will look unprofessional. There are a few items to consider with visual content for social media.

22.01.2022 WILL YOU GET RESULTS? Having a social media presence is a MUST! But would it work if all you do is putting posts out? RESULTS WILL COME... Or will they? It will still depend on how you manage your social media. You can wait for months to get leads and traffic. But if you do everything correctly and your services are in high demand - results will come. PROMOTE TO GET TRAFFIC You are posting, posting, posting! Great! But posting is serving your posts to your existing (possibly small) audience. You are lucky if your audience shares your posts, otherwise, think of the ways to promote your accounts to get new traffic. DONT ACT LIKE BIG BRAND IF YOU ARE NOT Look! Are you as well known brand like Nike? Then dont create basic content! You need to realise that your audience is passively surfing through social media and if you dont cover their fears (and they have tons of them) - they wont stop at your content. To get you to the actual results, we created our amazing SOCIAL MEDIA CLASSROOM! EVENT: SOCIAL MEDIA CLASSROOM DATE: SATURDAY, 9 NOVEMBER 2019 TIME: 11 am - 3 pm PRICE: $425 (hurry up to get an early bird) LOCATION: Bridge Coworking and Event Space, 5 Bridge Street, Newtown, VIC 3220 To get your ticket - follow our link in bio @brandaidnow!

20.01.2022 CREATE A COMMUNITY WHERE PEOPLE CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION! Today people are sick and tired of advertising! Our eye is already on a lookout for this "sponsored" word to make sure we skip this post! So what should businesses be doing? 1Figure out your strategy!... Determine what you want to achieve and then road map how you'll get there. 2Create quality content! Stop posting irrelevant, unnecessary content. Your content has to be aligned with your goals. 3Create a safe space to start a conversation! Your social media is there NOT FOR YOU TO SELL! It is for YOUR AUDIENCE TO DECIDE whether they want to buy! Talk to them, ask questions, support the conversation. 4Don't neglect any comments! No one wants to comment first, so if you even get an emoji as a response, ask your commentator a question "what did you like the most?" 5Focus on conversations! One comment is worth $100 ad spent! So build conversations as part of your social media strategy! Once you've created this safe place - you'd find that a lot of people would be responding to your call to actions and purchase from your brand. #growwithbrandaid What type of comments do you usually get?

20.01.2022 Oh that gave us just a good laugh this afternoon! Enjoy!

19.01.2022 #THE INSTAGRAM HASHTAGS TRUTH! It's fascinating to see how many people are putting a blanket of hashtags under their posts hoping that they are doing the right thing. Can we please break your beliefs?... 1Hashtags are not the tool for active account growth. Time and effort certainly don't match. You can juggle hashtags for a year and would get maybe 100-300 new followers in the best case. 2All they do is register the post against a specific hashtag. Yes, it will still matter who follow this hashtag (yes, you can follow hashtags) or whether anyone is searching through hashtags. So think - does your target audience follow this hashtag? 3Not all posts get shown for assigned to post hashtags. Have you checked your posts insights? Do you see posts that get higher impressions? One day it works, next might not. There are reasons for that! What do we do for brands that we work with? Create an easy hashtags map that is relevant, reaches your target audience, not hard to maintain and doesn't take much time to publish. BUT! You can't manage a page and focus on growth using hashtags ONLY! OMG, please stop!!! Social Media Strategy is far beyond hashtags and putting posts out. We cover the hashtags mapping topic in our Social Media Classroom as well. Dates of the class are coming up soon! What hashtags do you follow? #brandaid_tips See more

17.01.2022 CONNECT DURING LOCKDOWN, BUT REMEMBER TO LOOK AFTER YOURSELF! We are all in need of communication, and social media helps us to connect easily! Facebook Groups are so super active at the moment as if it is the only way of entertainment.... Everyone is going live both on Facebook and Instagram Twitter is super popular due to its short news format. But we at BRAND-AID (despite the fact that we usually promote usage of social networks) want to remind you about the several aspects you need to be aware during the lockdown: The more we stay on social media - the less happy we become. Some studies show that social media use is linked to a greater feeling of social isolation. We see too much of other lives. As a result, we compare our lives with them, which is mentally unhealthy. We do it subconsciously, but sadly it is linked to depressive symptoms. Don't forget; it can become an addiction. We grab our phones as soon as we get up and spend hours scrolling through without any particular reason. Worse is the fact that we keep coming back to social media waiting for this update that will make us feel happy, but it doesn't make us feel very good. No, don't withdraw from social media completely, be smart about it. Here are some good tips: Select accounts that you follow wisely. Make sure that they are quality accounts and you get value from them. As soon as you feel that you are scrolling without intention - put your phone down. Mute accounts/people that you don't want to unfollow, but don't find positive. We hope that you like our posts and will stay with us))! We only want to give you high-quality information! #brandaid_covid19 See more

15.01.2022 "GO ONLINE" IT IS EASY TO SAY It is easy for companies who understand the web to jump online and recreate their businesses. It is terrifying for those who didnt plan online tools to become the main resource of sales.... At BRAND-AID, we encourage you not to make a rapid move. We encourage you to look at your current resources. So do these steps first: 1Hopefully, you have a website. Yes? Then ask your friend to google your industry and location. Why your friend? Because his computer less likely remembers your website. Therefore Google will show him the actual result that the majority of people see. Why your industry and location? Because that is what people will google first when they'd be looking for services of your kind. If you page on TOP - do a little dance and be happy. Well done! If it is nowhere near the top or around at all - give a call to a good SEO specialist. We know one if you'd like to have a chat with him! 2Have a look at your Facebook/Instagram page. We won't google anything here, what we'll do is ask your friend's daughter to have a look at it, but don't say it is yours. Ask: "Can you tell me what this company does?" Why your friend's daughter? Because she has no idea what you do. See if she understands your speciality in the first 3-10 seconds. Why not say that it is yours? Because if you will - she will feel sorry for you and try hard. People on social media don't try hard at all. If she understands immediately, tap yourself on the shoulder! Well done, good job. If she says "What is it? I can't figure out what they do." or she says something remote from what you specialise in - then you need to edit your profile. Edit it in such a way that a 10-year old can understand! We give out a lot of tips right now through our stories. Make sure you get to go through them within a day, as they stay only for 24 hours. #growwithbrandaid See more

13.01.2022 WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT STRATEGY? Do you know that feeling when you were sitting all day trying to come up with a post idea? Frustration...

We know it and we feel for those business owners and social media managers that can't work it out yet. That why we've spent a lot of time creating a simple way of structuring content. So what is CONTENT STRATEGY? Content Strategy is a plan including all tools and tactics to roll your content out to Social Media. What it includes?

12.01.2022 FACEBOOK ADS: MOST COMMON MISTAKES! Facebook is one of the most popular advertising platforms. However, even if you are already here and actively using Facebook ads, there are many mistakes that you might be making. Make sure you check your Facebook ad right now for the following mistakes:... You are showing it to the same people - it is easy to forget to exclude previous converters and not to reach your audience with the same message in the same way. You are changing everything too fast - leave 24 to 48 hours for Facebook to optimise an ad after its been created or edited. You are trying to test everything at the same time - testing your ad performance is crucial. But make sure you leave the foundation and change one thing at a time. You forget to monitor your campaign - there are a lot of settings on Facebook that allow you to automate your ads, but it is important to stay on top of how your campaign is going. You are not documenting anything - make a document that tracks your campaign. Analyse it and figure out what worked and what didnt. Have you set your Facebook ad? Are you sure that it works at the maximum of its performance? If you need an advice or help with setting up a Facebook ad that works, contact Brand-Aid! We are committed to your brands success!

07.01.2022 FACEBOOK ADS: THINGS TO AVOID For sure you've noticed that these's been some major changes on Facebook and Instagram platforms. The changes are so significant that some experts consider them being the biggest in the past 15 years. They will affect Facebook Ads too (which are effectively Instagram ads as well). From now on, there are a few things you should avoid when creating a Facebook ad:... Content created for the sole purpose of pushing people to buy a product Content that pushes people to enter promotions, giveaways or contests Ads that link to outbound content - give value first! Moreover avoiding those items in general content will increase the organic reach of your profile as Facebook would see your posts as more valuable for your audience. p.s. there are much more items that you need to avoid in your ads! Stay tuned for more posts about it! More information about Facebook tips and tricks at #brandaid_facebook What are you posting today about? See more

06.01.2022 YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA WILL WORK FOR YOU ONLY IF YOU USE IT! Today one of our clients asked us how many leads other clients to get from social media. And because we are super transparent about it - we are happy to share this information with you guys as well! It depends. And it depends on how well you would use your account.... So let's have a look: A real estate company has a pretty account, but they do not connect with people, just put posts out. How many leads do you think they will get? CORRECT! Very few. Because even if you put makeup on, you still need to go out to meet someone. OR A real estate agent that put posts out about best ways of selling properties, helps vendors with straightforward advice, consistently uses stories and talks about how this or that property was sold. Also shares his personal story, you see his family, you know his values. This guy will be flooded with leads because he makes you feel like you know him. So we have amazing clients who take social media game seriously, and we love seeing how they get clients and grow their business thanks to us! By putting posts out, you won't get many results, but if you'd use your asset (your social media profile) correctly - you will achieve a lot! #brandaid_clients See more

But let's have a look how much effort have you put into it: You use social media consistently for: 1 month (hello baby account) 6 months (keep going) 1 year (great work) more than 1 year (so happy to meet you) Your account has: less than 100 follower (just like your neighbourhood granny) 100-1000 followers (it's just the beginning) 1000-5000 followers (you can start selling!) more than 5000 followers (good level) Your posts get on average: less than 10 likes (no one likes you) 10-20 likes (you must have some friends) 20-100 likes (your dog can get same number) more than 100 (local star) We know you've heard a lot of people say that likes and follows don't mean anything - sales do. Yeah kinda. BUT! This metrics can help you adjust your online behaviour and start selling. Experiment!!! Try new things, engage, collaborate, create ads. We will talk more about it at our Social Media Classroom. We'll announce the date of next course in 2020 soon. #brandaid_classroom See more

04.01.2022 SOCIAL MEDIA TRENDS 2020 / WHAT? YOU ARE NOT POSTING STORIES? Well... hello! Don't tell anyone about it! Why?... Because if you are not posting stories daily, your business is profile is being booooring! Stories are now available on Facebook as well, so by syncing Instagram and Facebook, you are reaching the audience in both channels. There are lots of people right now who prefer stories to posts. This way, they are engaging with people and brands they follow knowing what they are doing right now. By reaching the audience that prefers stories, you can direct them to your posts. You can put polls and quizzes out to understand what products your audience like or what they want to see more. Your little stories circle appears at the top of the page. The more engaging your stories are - the more people watch them! Therefore your circle will be closer to the start of all stories people see!

04.01.2022 DONT DO WHAT YOUR COMPETITORS DO! Have you had this moment when you saw your competitor posting something and thinking: "Nooooo, I could have done better!" ... You then decide to write a post: You think about the topic for an hour Desperately look for an image on your phone 2 hours later, you put the post out AND NOTHING HAPPENS Why? Competition doesn't start with the post. Competition starts with a strategy! Don't run yourself down, chasing every post that your competitor puts out! Develop your own goals, think of what you could have done differently to others, and how you can engage with your audience. #growwithbrandaid What was your best performing post about? See more

03.01.2022 HOW DO WE APPROACH REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY? We have so much fun managing social media for Real Estate. It's one of those industries that fully understands marketing and brand awareness. When a Real Estate brand comes to us - what do we do?... We research everything about the business, including their story, competitors, area of operation, difficulties and goals. We create a social media strategy that includes direct and indirect topics. Direct topics sell, indirect topics help people stay engaged. We take photos of their office, the process of work, the area where the business operates and then start providing tasks to copywriters. Copywriters know that their task is to help people connect with the brand. So they make sure content is sharp and has structure. We structure the visual for the brand, make sure it is familiar to the public, shows actual office or agents. We continuously focus on growth. We offer only organic methods that do not violate the rules. What outcomes does it bring to the business? Brand awareness. After working with us Real Estate agent or agency stand out within social media. Their profiles are clean and such items as offers, point of difference, brand persona and voice is clear. Traffic. We make sure that our clients constantly receive traffic to their pages. Traffic is local, so it is easy to convert into leads. We also train our clients on how to convert traffic into leads. Expertise. We help our clients to showcase their knowledge. They become different from ordinary real estate businesses - they actually connect. Competition in real estate is crazy, so we do everything to make sure Real Estate Agency we work with stands out based on their point of difference! #brandaid_clients See more

01.01.2022 WHAT NOT TO POST IN STORIES! Check if you tend to post any of the below: TALK SPAM... A talking head in stories for a length of 10 stories! That's how it looks like. Guess why IGTV was created? (So that you could stretch your sharing time). If you can't share your idea between 15-40 seconds - you need to work on it. LOCATION SPAM Very similar to the above. You recorded a walk around the beautiful location, posted it in Insta - bam! - it's 7 stories altogether. The same day you filmed more picturesque locations and put it in again for 7 stories length And again. 21 stories. NO ONE CAN WATCH IT EXCEPT FOR YOUR MUM! WEEKENDS ON THE BEACH OK - If it is your company culture, but let's say you are concreter, car repairer, logistic company, business consultant, please save it for your personal page. Your target audience came to you for a reason - and it is not to know how you spend your free time. COFFEE BREAKS Some accounts just keep posting their coffees for the sake of doing something. Together with the above weekends, it seems like all you do is coffee breaks and weekends on the beach. When do you work? If you do it - do 10% of it - not 100%! GYM WORKOUTS Unless you are a personal coach, gym or a transformational mentor. Think about it - how an account created for promoting accounting services is connected to your personal gym experience. Keep it with coffee breaks and weekends on your personal page! PHOTOS OR VIDEOS WITHOUT CAPTIONS People need to know the purpose of the picture, or they'll tap away. If you are a real estate agent or a builder, showing the kitchen around - point out details in the caption: "Look how awesome these taps are", "What an incredible view from the dining area". Let's summarise: no talking heads for more than 40 seconds (try for 15 seconds), 1 location per 1-2 stories, keep your personal life personal, don't make your account look as if all you do is glorifying moments off work, put some text over photos and videos. What is the most annoying story you've seen? #growwithbrandaid #brandaid_tips @ Geelong West, Victoria, Australia
