1. Pre-Production Planning Accelerates Growth
Before implementing a structured strategy, content production was slow and inefficient. Without a clear plan, we spent more time in post-production trying to fix issues that could have been avoided with better preparation. Moreover, without proper content research, the video idea lacked appeal and failed to capture audience interest.
What changed? We prioritized pre-production planning to streamline execution, reduce unnecessary revisions, and improve overall content quality.
What to Do:
Develop a content structure
Write clear scripts and outlines to improve storytelling and efficiency
Optimize for efficiency in filming to reduce editing time and improve consistency
Why it works: A structured pre-production process results in higher-quality content with faster turnaround times, allowing for more frequent and effective posting.
2. Serve Your Target Audience ("For You" Content)
A common mistake in social media growth is trying to reach everyone. This dilutes the message, reduces engagement, and lowers conversion rates. Instead, we focused on delivering value to a specific audience, ensuring content resonated deeply rather than just gaining passive views.
What to Do:
Identify a specific audience niche (e.g., business owners, students, fitness enthusiasts)
Craft messaging that directly speaks to their needs, challenges, and goals
Adjust content formats, introductions, and visual elements to align with audience preferences
Why it works: A highly targeted audience leads to higher engagement rates, increased retention, and stronger community building, ultimately driving long-term growth.
3. Optimize for Engagement, Not Just Views
Many brands and creators chase viral numbers, assuming that higher views equate to success. However, views alone do not convert into revenue or meaningful engagement. What matters is how actively the audience interacts with the content.
What to Do:
Prioritize key performance metrics such as watch time and shares
Focus on conversions—track actions taken beyond just views (e.g., sign-ups, sales, or ad revenue)
Continuously analyze engagement data to refine content strategy
Why it works: A smaller, highly engaged audience is far more valuable than a large, passive one. By focusing on content performance, rather than raw view counts, you build a sustainable and profitable social media presence.
