Not Having a Clear Cut Strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Diving into social media marketing without any strategy is a big mistake that can cost you in terms of money and loss of productive hours. You need to identify goals such as growing likes\/followers, creating new sales leads, establishing brand authority etc. You also need to define your target audience and have a precise budget as well as a solid plan of action that sums up what you are trying to achieve, how to achieve the goal and how results will be measured.<\/p>\n

Ignoring Negative Feedback<\/strong><\/p>\n

Negative feedback is one of the biggest risks of social media marketing and not knowing how to deal with it is something that can lead to loss of reputation. It\u2019s important to monitor your social media accounts regularly and detect issues as early as possible. Don\u2019t try to ignore or delete negative feedback- instead, aim to engage and respond in a polite manner without threatening to resort to legal action. If you are really at fault, show regret and apologize.<\/p>\n

Not Developing Quality Content<\/strong><\/p>\n

Social networks are for engagement and socializing and while it\u2019s alright to have some promotional material, make sure that it\u2019s subtle and try to foster user engagement with it. The focus should be on posting high-quality content that\u2019s meaningful, valuable and of interest to your users. Update your social media pages regularly with different types of content including blogs, videos and even links to external content that will appeal to users and keep their interest alive.<\/p>\n

Not Measuring Results<\/strong><\/p>\n

Measuring the results of your social media marketing efforts is very important for optimizing future campaigns. You should use analytic tools such as Google Analytics to track different performance metrics such as shares, website traffic, customer conversion, trends in buying decisions etc. At the planning stage itself, you should define social KPIs to monitor, engagement factors and demographic filters to use so that you can assess performance in an accurate manner.<\/p>\n
