3/ Pillars of Content

Every piece of content have 3 things:

- PURPOSE

@AmandaMGoetz
4/ Clear Value Prop

"If you can’t describe in one tweet why someone should follow your brand on social, you can bet the average social user can’t find the reason either."

@JuiceboxCA
5/ Organic

"Avoid getting hooked on paid marketing.

It drives quick growth but is expensive, easily replicated and therefore less defensible.

Plant the seeds of organic growth early to reduce reliance on paid marketing and drive down CAC over time."

@KyleTibbitts
6/ Empower

"Wildly popular or 'viral' brand posts aren’t subjected to multiple edits, pulled from a content plan or scheduled.

Viral posts happen when a social team is empowered to respond in real-time, in relevant ways to fleeting but remarkable social moments."

@jenalyson
7/ Unify a Community

Create a visual identity:

@MorningBrew = ☕

@AndrewYang = 🧢

When you run into another "☕" on twitter, you know they read the Brew.

8/ Emotion

"Pay attention to what people are posting.

We crave nostalgia. We crave songs from our childhood. We crave the stories that made us laugh - made us cry.

Our connection is emotional.

How is your brand tapping into the emotions of your audience?"

This is NONSENSE. The people who take photos with their books on instagram are known to be voracious readers who graciously take time to review books and recommend them to their followers. Part of their medium is to take elaborate, beautiful photos of books. Die mad, Guardian.
