Checklist for resale and consignment social media.

April 23, 2019 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Ran across this PRIMO gathering of 31 ideas for social media posts that you could print out and use for planning every month.

Just think of the time you’ll save this way!

No wondering what to post, whether you have been doing too many of 1 or 4 or 16… and an opportunity to gather future material (such as “fun facts”) in groups, to save future time! This graphic and the list below, from Erica Lerman. Her focus customer is not at all like ours, but the advice is right on!

P.S. Notice that “discount or promotion” is a ONCE-A-MONTH suggestion. Just sayin’. Listen to Erica if you don’t listen to your Auntie Ktate.

 

Great suggestion from Erica Lerman as selected by Kate Holmes of TGtbT.com

If you’d rather save the list and use a spread sheet to track your online messages and which channel you have used them on, here’s the list in text:

  1. Discount or promotion
  2. Ask a question to your audience
  3. Inspirational quote
  4. Share what you are reading right now
