The New Year promises a fresh start where it can feel like anything is possible. It’s the perfect time to dream about the future and all the amazing things to come. But, as the year comes to a close and you’re sitting down to make some lighthearted resolutions, don’t forget to set some time aside for your business – especially when it comes to social media marketing!

These are the 3 things you should do before you ring in the new year. 2023 can be your best year in business yet!

Get Real About What’s Working (And Not Working)

Take a look at your business to determine what’s working for you and what isn’t. Are you seeing results from your marketing efforts or does it feel like you’re running in place? What social media platforms are performing the best? Where can you improve? Is it time to learn a new skill or outsource to an expert instead? Read the blog 5 Signs It’s Time To Outsource.

Create Your Content Calendar

Let’s face it… It can be easy to fall into the trap of creating content at the last possible moment before it needs to go live. But that just leads to stress and content that “gets the job done”. You and your business deserve a plan! Schedule your launches and plan your content based on upcoming releases, holidays, and the changing seasons. Even a loose schedule will ensure that there’s no last-minute scrambling in the new year.

Create Goals For The New Year

New Year’s Resolutions are nice but actionable goals are even better! Maybe you want to reach a certain number of followers on Instagram, or maybe you want to increase your site traffic using Pinterest. Create goals and then break them into smaller steps – this is key! Give yourself a game plan for how you’ll accomplish each one. This makes it easier to reach your goals and will remove the feeling of overwhelm from even your biggest of dreams!

Not Sure Where To Begin?

If you’ve found yourself wondering why social media marketing seems to work for everyone else except for you, or you think…”I could crush this if I knew more about it”, it may be time to work with a marketing expert!

You’re sick of trying the one-size-fits-all advice you’ve found online and need a customized strategy that works for you, your business, and your customers.

That’s why I offer VIP Days! We sit down and work through all of your questions, concerns, and opportunities for growth.

I come prepared to pack the day full of educational information and actionable steps so you can walk away feeling confident in the areas you struggle with whether that’s social media, email marketing, or another topic of your choosing.
