🎉 *UPDATED: 2.1 MILLION ORGANIC VIEWS 🎉 ...and 129k likes, 1k comments, 6.4k saves, 500+ new followers, and the top spot on the #ForYou page for many people! The below video that we shared on our agency TikTok this week achieved this incredible milestone, following a revised company social media strategy that kicked off recently. We couldn't be prouder to see our vision come to life, driven by Penelope Costan, and to see amazing results in such a short time. "Planning, executing and testing this content has been a commitment from people in our social-first team who specialise in short form video and trends, along with our wider team participating." - Head of Social, Beatrix Fisher ➡️ So, why did it work? 😎 It was an authentic, candid moment that people find funny and relatable (thanks for letting us share it, Holly Kay!) 🎤 It's engaging and entertaining, nailing the brief for TikTok content, but also social media content in general. 🎵It (inadvertently) leveraged a popular song that resonated with the platform's Gen Z dominant audience who were quick to engage. Check us out on TikTok, and follow to see what we do next! https://lnkd.in/g9dpnBNQ

We have no notes! Senior Social Media Manager, Holly Kay hits the nail on the head when it comes to the role of organic social media, which has always been a key focus for our team's strategies here at Hotglue 💪🏼📈
Senior Social Media Manager at Havas Media Melbourne Australia: L'Oreal accounts💄💖✨ Another Brit in Melbourne.
Here's why your brand should never underestimate the importance of organic social❗ I’ve been in the mindset of buying a vintage camera for a while. I was repeatedly targeted by a brand on Instagram who were clearly crushing it when it came to their paid ad strategy, i’ll admit my interest was piqued. So here's what I did next... I went to their organic Instagram channel to learn more about them as a brand, ask questions, and research the product. Here’s what I found: 👉 Nothing had been posted on the account since 2023 👉 Very little educational content 👉No visible community management strategy, my DM’s went unanswered 👉No responses to comments on the posts from potential buyers asking for more product information But I'm still in the market for a vintage camera, so where do I go next? I go straight to their main competitors Instagram...35mm Co Then I found 35mm Co were crushing their social media presence with FAQ tutorials, trend content, relationship building and product education through excellent community management.... So I bought their camera instead. 💡 The point? You might be killing your paid ad strategy, but don’t underestimate the role organic social plays in your customers research journey. Channels like Instagram and TikTok are fundamental in enabling users to learn about your product quickly. And remember, customers are entering the marketing funnel at many different stages. 🔺 Optimise your organic social to make the research process easier for your customer, or you might risk losing them to a competitor. And if you need help, call Hotglue 📞 The vintage pic of my dog is for clickbait purposes. #socialmediamarketing #instagrammarketing #tiktokmarketing
