So, we have all come across some boring content we have created and have no idea on how to spice it up and take it to the next level. Do not fear, Layla Marketer is here.
Being a Social Media Marketing student, we often do several Social Media analysis and competitor analysis, always on a look out for the next BIG thing. So from my minor expertise, here is my suggestion on what your audience might like to see in your content (also keep in mind your brand image, this may or may not work with it, depends on how you add your magic!).
Let’s jump to the 5 FUN ways:
- Convey a Story or Joke
Your storyline is KEY! Telling stories is a great way to engage your readers and make your content relatable. It also makes your reader realize that behind that stuffy industry concept is a real person who’s writing it.
Whereas for the Jokes, this one is a little tougher, as it requires a sense of humor. That being said, you don’t have to be the funniest person in the world to make readers smile here and there. Just loosen up, be yourself, and if you’re not sure whether something is actually humorous, run it by an honest co-worker.
2. Add Pop-culture reference
Because why not? The next time your relate to something, the first thing someone would remember was your content because of incorporating the pop culture aspect. If the majority of your audience won’t have any idea who or what you’re referencing, it’ll be a total flop. Now, you won’t be able to appeal to everyone, but use your best judgment and keep your personas in mind.
3. Caption your images
This one speaks for itself. And also can be done by yourself on PowerPoint.
4. Use creative GIFs
Animated GIFs are great for catching readers’ attention and making your content just a little bit more interesting. Here is the good bit, there are so many online GIF generators you could use which are absolutely free of cost.
5. Use Memes?
A meme is quite simply a concept, behavior, or idea that spreads, usually via the internet. Memes most commonly manifest themselves in visuals such as images, pictures, or videos, but they can also take the form of a link, hashtag. You can use Moz, to find meme-themed news release.
