How To Properly Make Content For Social Media

Platform Diversity

In today's digital landscape, expanding across multiple platforms is crucial for reaching diverse audiences. Gary Vaynerchuk emphasizes the importance of tailoring content to platform-specific audiences, noting that LinkedIn is ideal for B2B services, while TikTok and Instagram are more effective for consumer products targeting younger demographics 1. He highlights the significance of identifying underpriced attention, which involves recognizing platforms or strategies that offer high organic reach with minimal competition 2.

The thing that I know you know about me over these last seven, eight years is that I have a very strong skillset in understanding where there's more organic reach against consumption and when to do it hard than most people.
