Social Media Engagement Strategy • 2 weeks prior to broadcast:engage SM for direction on show topic • During broadcast:listen to what social media is saying on show topic • Post broadcast: continue engagement on SM – foster conversation
Stay Tuned Evaluation • Before broadcast survey • During broadcast evaluate themes and twitter trends • Post broadcast survey audience via social media and email • Evaluate each tweet
What we learned (so far) Topics drive social media engagement
What we learned (so far) Current (trending) topics, drive it even more
What we learned (so far) In-studio SM activity = greater engagement
What we learned (so far) Personal Brand interaction increases engagement
What we learned (so far) Facebook doesn’t reach engagement
