5 Unique Content Marketing Ideas
One of the biggest ways to make an impact with Digital Marketing posts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and other social media sites is with attention grabbing small business posts. You’ve probably posted handfuls of articles and blogs about the same old topics. These topics can only get recycled a few times until your followers get bored with the same-old, same-old.
What should you do if you’re on the hunt for new, refreshing content which will revitalize your social media feeds? Where should you turn?
I’ve compiled a list of 5 ways to jumpstart your small business social media posts:
Using animals will help you sell. Posts with dog pix get a wide range of 
viewers and likes as compared with posts including people pix. People love cute dog photos.Here’s an example of a recent Instagram post I created for my Realtor® client. The bottom line: Animal photos sell services and product best!
Quippy quotes will capture more views.
Posting a well-known, overused quote such as 
“Do one thing every day that scares you.” anonymous
VERSUS
Posting a quote with a little more humor and imagery such as the Thrifting quote shown here.
“I don’t need therapy, I just need to go thrifting.”
What’s the difference? One is more serious and is seen day in and day out on many social media sites. The other is refreshing, new and niche specific. It will get the attention of those who are passionate about thrifting.
