Create an Audience-Aligned Instagram & Facebook Strategy


Step 1: It’s Persona Time

Define Your Target Audience

● Challenging your own assumptions

= more effective, innovative

campaigns

● It WILL make your life easier.

Promise. This is your foundation.

● It’s an iterative process.

#SorryNotSorry

Don’t Reinvent the Wheel.


Read the Room First.

● Use a listening solution to

understand the FULL conversation

on Instagram, Facebook, and

beyond...not just around your

brand.

● What does the conversation look

like around your brand, industry

and target topics on social today?

● Example:

○ General Topic: Yoga

○ Your Brand: Yoga Pants Inc.

○ Specific Brand Offering:

Coolest Yoga Pants Ever

Personas + Social Data = 💖


Step 2: Identify Behavior

Define Key Themes

● Understand persona interests

across different industries beyond

your own brand

● Uncover common @mentions,

hashtags or events among your

personas

● Pair like-minded brands with your

own brand audience, understand

your share-of-voice baseline, and

set accurate goals

Which Other Brands Align with Your Audience?

And Back to Our Personas...


Step 3: Identify Influencers

Ask Yourself...

● Is there a possible

partnership with

influencers to leverage

their existing audience?

● With non-competitive

brands with similar

audience?

● Who does my audience

also follow?

Leverage Influencers


Step 4: Set Goals

Ask Yourself...

● What do you need Instagram and

Facebook to do for your business?

● Based on the research you’ve

done, what is a realistic but

aggressive goal for each persona?

● What is a realistic but aggressive

total goal for all personas/persona

strategies?

Some Guidelines...

● Don’t use this tactic unless you

have a lot of strong content on

your Faceook page

● Leverage influencers big and

small, as well as your personal

network

● Complement with paid

Influencer Program Management

Like we said earlier, content labeling will make managing your influencer

program MUCH easier.

regular basis—not just when the campaign or partnership is coming to a close

● Get a feel for the type of content your influencers are posting and how you can better align your

social strategies

● Measure your brand content performance vs. your influencers’ performance

Listening: Measure Awareness & Conversation

Instagram Stories: Measure & Optimize

Today’s Recap

● Research, execute, measure...then restart

● It all begins with people/personas

● Use non-paid content, content labeling, and

listening for signals to inform paid content

● Build the community, then the conversions

● The only thing constant is change
