Episode 80: Authenticity & Social Media Marketing — Toss the Inspirational Quotes [featuring Emma Tessler]
Many therapists have heard by now that social media is one of the best ways to effectively market their businesses. However, the "how" and "what" parts of content creation, platforms to use, frequency of posting, etc. are often misunderstood, which leads to therapists defaulting to sharing inspirational quotes or "3 ways to blah, blah, blah" (A.K.A. posts that can make them disappear into the vast sea of profiles).
But social media can be a lot simpler and less stressful once you stop trying to make it about what you think a therapist should post and instead use authenticity to connect with people and build your brand.
If you are wondering how you can grow your private practice and make social media marketing as simple as possible, this episode is for you.
In this episode, I talk with Emma Tessler, social media marketing strategist and founder Ninety Five Media.
Top 3 reasons to listen to the entire episode:
- Understand how referencing content and following trends is not being a copycat and actually helps your content get noticed by the algorithm and become more visible.
- Learn how to use your authentic voice to make content that actually connects with people.
- Identify what types of content are the most effective, which platforms you should use, and how to create content quickly and with ease.
Social Media doesn't have to be overwhelming or time-consuming, so figuring out what works for you and your business is a key first step. While directories and websites are great, social media can add that extra push to accelerate your private practice growth.
Learn what works best for you and how to make social media your powerful marketing tool with less stress and more simplicity.
