SOCIAL MEDIA TIPS

Social media is often the first place people discover your brand, form an opinion and decide whether to follow, enquire, or move on. Posting on Facebook and Instagram is less about chasing trends and more about showing up with consistency, clarity and intent. With the right cadence, timing and structure, your content works harder without needing more effort.

Five tips for posting on Facebook and Instagram

1. Be consistent, not constant

You do not need to post every day. Aim for:

Instagram: 3 - 4 posts per week

Facebook: 2 - 3 posts per week

This keeps your brand visible without overwhelming your audience or your team.

2. Lead with value, not selling

Educational posts, behind-the-scenes content, tips, transformations, and process-led stories build trust. If every post sells, people tune out. If every post helps, selling becomes easier.

3. Keep captions clear and scannable

Attention is short. Use:

A strong first line

Short paragraphs

Natural breaks

Write how people read, quickly and on a phone.

4. Use the right number of hashtags

More is not better.

Instagram: 3 - 5 relevant hashtags

Facebook: 0 - 2 hashtags or none at all

Focus on specific, meaningful hashtags rather than broad or generic ones.

5. Post at the right time and invite interaction

Best general posting times:

Weekdays: 7–9am or 6–8pm

Weekends: 9–11am

These windows catch people before work, after work, or during slower weekend scrolls. Pair posts with a simple question or prompt to encourage comments, saves, or shares, all of which boost reach
