How to Build Social Media Presence: Tips For Designers & Creators
You tell your story by doing your creative work. But where will you share it if not on social media?
There’s hardly a creative person casting doubts on the benefits of social media. It’s okay to build up a personal brand only having an account on Instagram and carry a message across the world without leaving a room. However, it looks like for creative people to build a strong social media presence is way trickier.
Why does it work this way? It’s assumed that once a creative project creates their Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, or Youtube page, comes a flow of subscribers and followers, and their audience grows intensively. But in practice, it’s only a few people.
To become a blogger is surprisingly easier than positioning and promoting businesses on social media. The difficulty is that you have to find your best-matching platform, your style, your audience, and keep the balance between self-positioning and generating useful & beautiful content.
Eventually, you build up your social media presence for humans, not for lifeless engines. So it will be good to ask yourself from time to time whether you would put a like on a post like that or rather scroll by.
