Content is king. This is true, especially when it comes to social media. But a kind can’t rule a kingdom alone. He needs a queen. And that queen is community management.
Brands spend countless advertising dollars and hours creating an image for themselves and creating content that goes along with that. This content is important in reaching their target market and building a customer base…but it can’t do everything. Strong community management can take a brand from average to spectacular in a consumer’s mind.
Community management builds personality. It is a way for brands to create and maintain relationships with their customers. It allows for customer service, relationship building, and personalization. It even allows for brands to further inform and entertain their target audience. All of these are such important aspects to social media strategies, so it’s hard to say how brands haven’t realized this yet.
Brands who focus on community management are likely to see success.
