RAP IT UP

WHY OUTSOURCE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA? YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TAG AND A TWEET, A SHARE AND A LIKE. AND PEOPLE ARE STILL POKING. RIGHT?

Pretty much any business that wants to succeed these days needs a strong presence on social media. You probably know that already though. Question is, would you dry your own tea leaves for that cup of tea you’re thinking of having? Or roast your own coffee beans instead of popping out for that steaming cup of coffee from the coffee shop around the corner? No, of course you wouldn’t. Because that isn’t your business. Unless you’re a tea or coffee producer reading this. Even so, you get the point.

Here at Buzz Social we, eat, sleep and breathe social media. And not just the odd Facebook profile or an occasional tweet. No, there is so much more than that. We know what’s working and what isn’t. We keep our finger on the pulse for the new trends so you don’t have to. We keep your voice consistent, re-enforcing your brand and engaging with both current and potential customers in a way that will make your business stronger than ever.

And we’re not gonna lie. It’s time consuming. Making sure your business has a good presence across many social platforms isn’t just a quick five minute job done once a day. To do it well, which we do, it takes much, much longer than that. And your strategy needs constant thought and reviewing. So why should you be doing that when you could be concentrating on developing your core business?

Answer: you shouldn’t.

Outsourcing your social media not only frees up your time, but also gives you all the expertise that you could ever need right at your fingertips. Or the end of a phone. It means you don’t have to worry about whether you’ve re-tweeted enough today or what photo to put up on Instagram

- we can worry about that for you. And if it hasn’t come across already, we love doing it. Simple as that.

As if all that isn’t enough, outsourcing your social media could actually save you money as well. Yes, you read that right. It could save you money. But how? Well, by outsourcing your social media you could reduce your staff expenses (you won’t need to hire that specialist social media person who’ll take up a whole other desk and demand a Christmas lunch) and not need to buy that specialist software you need to do the job effectively.

When you outsource your social media you’re gaining expertise, time and manpower. We started this article by asking why you would want to outsource your social media. The question now is - why would you not?
