3 Areas to make improvements
• We believe success comes from focusing on three areas of a strategy:
• The Right Audience• At The Right Time • With The Right Message
• Throughout this presentation we will take examples of brand activity across Twitter & Facebook
• All this data is available from and analysed with BirdSong
• BirdSong does not administer any of these Facebook pages or manage their Twitter/Instagram accountswww.birdsonganalytics.com

1. THE RIGHT AUDIENCE

Are we talking to the right people?
• The number of fans/followers is of no use if we are not talking to the right audience.
• With Facebook & Instagram a third party can only see the active users of any page – those that engage with the page/account.
• With Twitter we can see a lot more about the followers for much deeper analysis…

When is the Right Time on Twitter?
• When is the best time to tweet?• Is it based on your tweet activity? – That will only highlight what you’ve already
done
• Is it based on when you’re in the office? – Assuming no-one tweets evenings &
weekends
• Or is it based on when your audience is active?

When is the audience most active?
Tweets from @skyHD based on the latest 3,200 tweets
• Followers most active in the evening • Focusing more resource later in the evening could provide better engagement

What about Facebook?
• Improving your timing on Facebook could make a real difference
• We know organic reach is low but it’s not a conspiracy to push paid ads
• It’s because Facebook has so many other stories they could show a user at any one time
• Why would they share yours?

Herd Mentality?• Here is the posting schedule for 64 of the UK’s
largest retailers

Everyone at once?• Here is the daypart posting schedule for 4 of the
biggest supermarkets
• Slight variations in volume but a steady pattern of presence

![Page 24: Bird song cim webinar presentation](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032504/55c42741bb61ebc51c8b47bb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Is Facebook closed at weekends?• Here is the weekday posting schedule for 4 of the
biggest supermarkets
All brands decrease weekend activity www.birdsonganalytics.com

25
Why is this a problem?
• All brands are competing with each other• If a user followed more than one
Supermarket brand (or any brand), Facebook will have to choose which ones to promote
• That’s assuming the audience is active during office hours
• The smarter marketer would find some clearer air for greater engagement potential

26
When can we achieve better engagement?
Average number of likes per post is lower in the day than posts in the eveningIn part due to the lower volume but consider when you are on Facebook?
![Page 27: Bird song cim webinar presentation](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032504/55c42741bb61ebc51c8b47bb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Finding the right time
• Finding a better time to post can help improve engagement rates, provide greater potential reach and achieve more results
• By analysing brand activity we can better understand when our competitors are active, how well they perform and when our potential audience is active

28
The Right Time & Right Audience
• We now know who our audience is, and (on Twitter) who our competitor’s audience are –We can better target our own messages,
engage or advertise to our competitors’ followers
• We also know more about when our audience is active and when we should be posting better
• We know this for our competitors too.. • Use these opportunities to trial new
messages or ‘go fishing’ when your competitors are sleeping!

Tailor the Message to the Audience
• If we know about our audience on Twitter we can better tailor a message.
• If they define themselves as husbands or fathers, try some more content focused around these elements.
• If the followers are interested primarily in digital marketing, ensure a good volume of digital marketing content.
