10 Social Media Post Ideas

We all know how important social media has become for showcasing our businesses, but it can be hard to keep up with posting daily while keeping things engaging for your audience. It may seem easy at first, but when you sit down at your computer, your mind goes blank! Trust us, it even happens to us from time to time. 

So what do you do?

• First, we recommend coming up with a schedule. Pick times each week when you want to post and stick with it! Consistency is key. 
• Second, make sure to keep your audience in mind at all times. What do they want to see? Will they interact your posts? If you can't answer these questions, it might be time to think about a social media audit to find out who your ideal client is and where/what they are interested in on social media.
• Put together a calendar of post ideas. We recommend doing it a month a time and reviewing the upcoming month for company anniversaries, product launches, and fun holidays. You can download a free month of post ideas by clicking here. 
• Ask Questions and get your audience involved! Remember to create a graphic or take a picture to go with each one: 
  1. Would you rather sit on a beach or climb a mountain?
  2. What's your favorite podcast?
  3. What are you thankful for today?
  4. What's your favorite quote? Share below
  5. What was the last picture you took on your phone? Share it below!
  6. If you had a time machine, where would you go and why? 
  7. What is your favorite app to use? 
  8. Fill in the blank: My favorite way to relax after a long day is ________?
  9. What's your favorite _________ (pick the season) activity? Be sure to share what yours is. 
  10. What is your favorite movie? 
• Get Posting! Pick out your favorite ideas and start posting. Remember that these are one size fits most, so some may not be relevant and some you may not like, but they are options to get you started and to get your creative juices flowing.
