Facebook. Instagram. TikTok. Twitter.
What do these social media platforms have in common besides millions and millions of users? Being a great avenue for businesses to get eyes on them.
With more people downloading these social media apps, more people are scrolling through their feeds to get the latest information, trends, FOMO.
The average user spends over two hours a day on social media, making it a great place to connect with future customers or clients.
Most business owners now understand the importance of posting on social media. Which is great .. BUT .. I see it time and time again when a business owner is constantly posting the same kind of content over and over. Soon enough, they get burnt out, questioning if it’s even worth it to keep posting. Eventually they stop.
I’d compare it to a creative block or creative fatigue.
Luckily for you I got your back! I’ve put together a great list of social media ideas you can refer back to when you need an idea. Or use all of the them!
The great thing about these content ideas, they’re not subjected to only one type of content. You can turn these ideas into still images, videos, reels, TikToks, carousels. Whichever fits your strategy, current trends, and algorithms.
Now let’s get to it.
