BY POPULAR DEMAND, Shane O’Neill of INSTORE Marketing returns alongside INSTORE editor-in-chief Trace Shelton to talk social media, including how to craft engaging copy, which type of content triggers action, how to target the best audience for your message and what you should be spending. Social media has evolved quickly since its inception, and using the various media as advertising vehicles can be a complex proposition. O’Neill makes the case that with not a lot of effort, stores can provide engaging, personal content that clients will value, especially in the realm of video.
Over the course of the webinar, O’Neill and Shelton discuss Facebook, YouTube and Instagram (the three most recommended forms of social media for retail jewelers) and how each is best utilized. They talk about how retail jewelers should have a “social content curator” on staff to make sure that good content is generated on a regular basis — and how that curator can work with an agency to ensure that the content is placed and edited correctly. The discussion wraps up with a Q&A with viewers that addresses topics like the value of scheduled posts, how to promote a new YouTube channel, an overview of Facebook advertising, how important are “conversions,” examples of strong “content curators” and more.
