Thinking about your social media strategy for the new year? Here’s a hot tip: Take a deep dive into your analytics from the past year 🔥 Look at what worked and what didn’t.

CTA or no CTA on a post....that is the question!? So should a CTA be on every post? The short answer is NO! Social media is about conversation, not constantly selling. Instead of always having a CTA, try these tips: ✨Engage with questions: Encourage your audience to share their thoughts or experiences. ✨Show behind-the-scenes: Give them a glimpse into your process or daily life. ✨Share value: Offer helpful tips, insights, or resources without asking for anything in return. Remember, it’s about building relationships, not just sales. What’s your favorite way to engage with your audience without pushing a CTA? 🙌

Today’s tip is all about leveraging ChatGPT for your social media marketing. Remember, ChatGPT isn’t Google. To use it effectively: 1.
