Recognise Your Viewers
Make sure you know who your audience is before you start producing any content or running advertisements.

1.Enquire:

What issues do they have?

On what platforms do they operate?

What kinds of content appeal to them?

Practical Resources:

For insights on website visitors, use Google Analytics 4.

Insights on Meta Audiences for Social Media Data

Polls or surveys: for firsthand input

A word of advice: Actual data frequently reveals a different audience than you anticipated.

2. Establish SMART objectives
You won’t advance with a nebulous objective like “get more followers.”

Make use of SMART objectives:

Particular

Measurable

Reachable

Associated with

Time-sensitive

For instance: “I want 5,000 Instagram followers in 3 months.” 

This aids in concentrating, testing, and evaluating what is effective.

3. Select Appropriate Platforms
Avoid trying to be everywhere. Pay attention to the platforms that are appropriate for your target audience.
Examples include: • B2B: Google Ads, LinkedIn, and email

• Product-Based: Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok
  • Local Business: WhatsApp, Instagram, and Google Business
  Let’s start with one or two channels. Proceed from there.

  4. Produce Valuable, Interesting Content
  Problems are solved and attention is captured by good content.
  In 2025, what works:
  • Infographics; • Short videos (Reels, TikToks, Shorts)
  • Posts on blogs
  • Letters
  Combine a brand or personal story with useful information.
  A call-to-action (CTA) should always be included:
  • “Download now”
  • “Message us to find out more.”
  • “Make an appointment for a free consultation.”

  5. Monitor, Evaluate, and Enhance
  Your strategy should be guided by data, not conjecture.
  Tools to try:
  • Analytics 4 by Google
  • Ubersuggest or SEMrush • Meta Ads Manager
  Monitor: conversions, leads, and clicks
  Test: various offers, images, and headlines
  Tweak: quickly fix what doesn’t work
  For instance, my client’s conversion rate rose by 32% after changing just one sentence on a landing page headline — and within a week, the conversion rate increased by 32%!
