3 Steps to Increase Productivity with Social Media

We often hear "I just don't have time for social media."

It's important to understand that it's natural as humans to jump on social media and get distracted, to not engage and just consume.

BUT if you were to sit down and focus on being productive we genuinely think people would be able to be much successful on online.

Here are three steps that can help:

1. PLAN AND SCHEDULE

Assign a time each day for your engagement, and weekly to design, curate captions and build a strategy. This will help prevent burn out and keep you consistent.

2. MINIMIZE DISTRACTIONS

Get off your social media, stop scrolling, close anything that will keep you off task. Look at social media as a tool and minimize your 'consumption' when you can.

3. KEEP FOCUSED

Creating a checklist of the types of engagement can keep you on-task as well as using a Content Calendar to plan out your future posts. Additional ideas would be to use apps such as Planoly to schedule out your content.
