When it comes time to plan your social media, sit down at your calendar and drop in your most important dates. I.E. you’re running a sale in your shop. Add in the most important, high converting dates first! Add a strong call to action to these posts.
Next, you will want to offer some tips to ensure your audience looks at you as a leader in your industry/niche.
