You can see what your audience likes, what gets the most engagement, and where you might be wasting time or effort. It’s also a great way to learn more about your audience – what they’re into, how they behave, and what they respond to most. Pinpointing new opportunities It also shows you opportunities you might be missing, like new trends, underused platforms, or different ways to connect with your audience. Plus, you can compare your performance to competitors. This can give you ideas for improving and help you see where you have an edge or where you might need to catch up. Maintaining brand consistency A big benefit is making sure your brand looks consistent. Are your profiles complete? Do they match your overall messaging and tone? If something’s off – like an old logo or outdated info – you can fix it. It’s also about using your resources wisely, focusing on what’s working instead of spreading yourself too thin. Tracking goals easily Another key part is tracking how well you’re meeting your goals. An audit gives you a baseline, so you can set clear objectives and measure progress over time. It’s also helpful for staying on top of social media trends and making sure you’re keeping up with changes in platforms and audience expectations.

LinkedIn remains crucial for B2B marketing, with X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube continuing to be relevant.  Instagram and TikTok are increasingly important, especially as younger professionals (Gen Z and younger Millennials) gain decision-making roles in businesses. While TikTok has become more significant for B2B marketing, it requires a nuanced, professional approach that goes beyond trending dance challenges.  Facebook's importance has decreased, but it still holds value for certain demographics and industries. The key is to focus on platforms where your target audience is most active, creating tailored, platform-specific content that resonates with professional audiences Keep track of your target audience Understanding your target audience is instrumental for an effective social media strategy. Built-in analytics now provide invaluable insights into audience engagement, allowing you to track which companies and demographics are most interested in your content.  When you analyze when your audience is most active online, you can strategically time your posts to maximize visibility and interaction. This data-driven approach enables you to tailor your social media content and posting schedule to the specific preferences and behaviors of your target audience, ultimately improving your overall social media performance. Check what content is most popular Identify the posts that generate the highest engagement and consider phasing out content that fails to connect, particularly if it consumes significant time and resources in your content creation process.  This strategic refinement allows you to focus your efforts on producing the most impactful and audience-aligned content.<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/s29Pehuojrs?si=NmXY8Ze6lofos69j\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen></iframe> Set your KPIs If you don’t have a set of measurements to grade yourself against, how will you know if your social media efforts have been successful? Before conducting your audit, establish a comprehensive framework of success measurements that align with your broader business objectives. When developing KPIs, consider a holistic approach that encompasses multiple dimensions of social media performance: Engagement metrics: Analyze the depth of audience interaction, including likes, comments, shares, and saves. Look beyond surface-level numbers to understand the quality of engagement and how it translates to brand awareness and potential conversions. Publishing consistency: Evaluate your content frequency and scheduling. Consistent posting helps maintain audience interest and algorithm visibility. Track whether your current publishing cadence supports your marketing goals and audience expectations. Audience demographics: Examine the characteristics of your current followers. Compare your actual audience with your target demographic to identify potential gaps or opportunities for more targeted content strategy. Performance tracking: Monitor channel-specific metrics like reach, impressions, click-through rates, and referral traffic. These indicators provide insights into how effectively your content drives audience action and supports broader marketing objectives. Economic evaluation: Calculate your social media return on investment (ROI) by tracking budget expenditure against tangible outcomes like lead generation, website traffic, or direct sales conversions. Pro tip: Utilize third-party analytics templates from platforms – like this one from Sprout Social – or create custom tracking sheets that reflect your unique business goals. Regularly review and adjust these KPIs to ensure they remain relevant and aligned with your evolving social media strategy.Identifying quality KPIs for B2B social marketing What makes an effective social media KPI? What kinds of metrics should you be looking for? https://www.revenuemarketingalliance.com/measuring-success-identifying-quality-kpis-for-b2b-social-marketing/ Track your website stats When users navigate to your website from social media platforms, their subsequent actions provide critical insights into the effectiveness of your content and linking strategy.  Website analytics offer a deep dive into user engagement, revealing whether your social media traffic is genuinely valuable or merely generating superficial clicks. Some metrics you can focus on are: Time on site: Examine the duration visitors spend on your website after clicking through from social media. Short visit times might indicate: Misaligned content expectations Ineffective landing pages Irrelevant link targeting Bounce rate: A high bounce rate suggests that visitors aren't finding the content they anticipated. This could mean: Misleading social media descriptions Content that doesn't match the linked promise Poor user experience or page design Page depth and navigation: Track how many pages users visit after arriving from social media. Multiple page views indicate: Engaging, relevant content Successful internal linking Effective user journey design Conversion tracking: Beyond mere website visits, monitor: Sign-ups Product purchases Download completions Contact form submissions" } },{ "@type": "Question", "name": "Other types of social media maintenance", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "1. Check your bios If you don’t regularly check in on your social media bios, you’ll probably be surprised by how much has changed since you last updated it. Business objectives change, taglines get updated, and advertising campaigns shift focus – and your social media bios should reflect every one of these significant changes. Your bio should be tailored to each platform and, no matter where it’s displayed, should be short, snappy, and on-brand. Make sure you’ve included an overview of your services, your location, and who you work with/for. 2. Refresh your imagery Visual branding evolves over time and your cover photos need to keep up with that. Bonus points are available if you can update them to fit the seasons, your most current advertising campaign, or special events! When it comes to cover photo quality, make sure you’re up to date with the latest trends. For example, most major brands have swapped out a high-resolution image in favor of a video. If you opt to make the switch, just make sure your video looks clear and loads quickly.Brand. Culture. Design.

Scan the web Do a quick Google search and make sure there aren’t any profiles out there claiming to be you - or that you don’t have any old profiles of your own lingering around. If there are, you could be losing out on some business-winning followers. If you do come across your own old profile, delete it. And if it’s someone else impersonating you, ask them to remove the page - if they don’t, report it. 4.

Short visit times might indicate:</p><ul><li>Misaligned content expectations</li><li>Ineffective landing pages</li><li>Irrelevant link targeting</li></ul><p><strong>Bounce rate: </strong>A high bounce rate suggests that visitors aren't finding the content they anticipated. This could mean:</p><ul><li>Misleading social media descriptions</li><li>Content that doesn't match the linked promise</li><li>Poor user experience or page design</li></ul><p><strong>Page depth and navigation: </strong>Track how many pages users visit after arriving from social media. Multiple page views indicate:</p><ul><li>Engaging, relevant content</li><li>Successful internal linking</li><li>Effective user journey design</li></ul><p><strong>Conversion tracking: </strong>Beyond mere website visits, monitor:</p><ul><li>Sign-ups</li><li>Product purchases</li><li>Download completions</li><li>Contact form submissions</li></ul><figure class="kg-card kg-bookmark-card"><a class="kg-bookmark-container" href="https://www.revenuemarketingalliance.com/dark-social-tracking-and-leveraging-private-sharing/"><div class="kg-bookmark-content"><div class="kg-bookmark-title">Dark social: Tracking and leveraging private sharing</div><div class="kg-bookmark-description">Dark social is the content shared through private channels like instant messaging and email, making it extremely difficult to track and measure.</div><div class="kg-bookmark-metadata"><img class="kg-bookmark-icon" src="https://www.revenuemarketingalliance.com/content/images/icon/android-chrome-192x192--1--46.png" alt=""><span class="kg-bookmark-author">Revenue Marketing Alliance</span><span class="kg-bookmark-publisher">Teresa Garanhel</span></div></div><div class="kg-bookmark-thumbnail"><img src="https://www.revenuemarketingalliance.com/content/images/thumbnail/RMA_Website_Article_Images_Doodles--12-.png" alt="" onerror="this.style.display = 'none'"></div></a></figure><h2 id="other-types-of-social-media-maintenance">Other types of social media maintenance</h2><h3 id="1-check-your-bios">1. Check your bios</h3><p>If you don’t regularly check in on your social media bios, you’ll probably be surprised by how much has changed since you last updated it. Business objectives change, taglines get updated, and advertising campaigns shift focus – and your social media bios should reflect every one of these significant changes.</p><p>Your bio should be tailored to each platform and, no matter where it’s displayed, should be short, snappy, and on-brand. Make sure you’ve included an overview of your services, your location, and who you work with/for.</p><h3 id="2-refresh-your-imagery">2. Refresh your imagery</h3><p>Visual branding evolves over time and your cover photos need to keep up with that. Bonus points are available if you can update them to fit the seasons, your most current advertising campaign, or special events!</p><p>When it comes to cover photo quality, make sure you’re up to date with the latest trends. For example, most major brands have swapped out a high-resolution image in favor of a video. If you opt to make the switch, just make sure your video looks clear and loads quickly.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-bookmark-card"><a class="kg-bookmark-container" href="https://www.revenuemarketingalliance.com/brand-culture-design/"><div class="kg-bookmark-content"><div class="kg-bookmark-title">Brand.
