Know Your Target Audience.
Does your Facebook posts fall on deaf ears? It’s probably because you’re speaking to the wrong audience. The better you understand your target market the easier it is to craft content that speaks directly to them. But if I asked you who your target market is could you answer? Do you know their likes, dislikes, needs, wants & desires? Are you able to tell me how you help them & why they should choose to work with you? If not, you’re not alone.
Many brands stumble in this area — thinking that “everyone” is their target market. That leads to broad stroke marketing & an untailored message. If you’ve ever wished you had a crystal ball & could see exactly who your target market & Facebook audience is you can!
Understand Your Competitive Edge.
Now that you’re clear on your target market ask yourself what it is that separates your brand from the competition? What sets you apart & gives you a leg up when you go toe to toe with your competitors on a project? Sharing what’s unique about your company lets Facebook fans make educated decisions about whether to:

To understand your brand is to give your brand the leverage it needs to attain success!
