The Power of Social Media Social media has the power to connect strangers, influence decisions, and spark movements among diverse audiences. However, due to its fast-paced and ever-changing nature, social media oscillates between being a friend and a foe to growing businesses. On one hand, social media is one of the best and most effective marketing tools that small businesses have access to. It can reach lots of people in a short amount of time. On the other hand, constantly developing original content that is trending and engaging is often a huge challenge! It’s tough trying to maintain both quality and quantity. Luckily, it is possible to curate content that appeals to each social media platform. The term “curate” is originally from the museum industry and was used to describe people who tracked down particular art exhibits to be displayed in galleries. Today, marketers borrow this term to describe a method of sharing other people’s work in a way that can help you appeal to your followers.

Brands must struggle to claim a spot in consumers’ minds amidst a torrential downpour of information. Good branding matters. With good branding, it becomes possible for you to cut through the noise and bustle of everyday information, connect with your customer, and - hopefully - have them respond to your message. Good branding builds customer loyalty and establishes a name for yourself in the market. The first thing you can do when creating a brand is recognize what you already have.
