Making Changes

The world is changing fast. There are now more digital and social media platforms than ever before. Being on top of the game and making appropriate changes can build or break your brand. For Ryan, he has seen his companies adapt over time to take advantage of the digital platforms and increase his brand awareness. It is about being able to reach and connect well with your audience so that you can make an impact.

Investing In What Works

With so many digital platforms now available, it is easy to get lost in the masses. Businesses need to identify which digital platforms work well and know where to improve on. Depending on the nature of your business and your marketing goal, some platforms may have better results than others. To grow his brand, Ryan has focused on different platforms like podcasts, Youtube, and Facebook to help him connect better with his audience. Some platforms also provide better feedback channels than others. Building your brand requires that you can listen to your customers so that you can align your services and products to solve their problems better.

Positive Vibes

Ideally, social media platforms are meant for people to be more social. Often, brands fall in the trap of overly promoting themselves on social media platforms. These actions end up being a turn-off, and therefore high attrition rates, hence decreasing the brands’ credibility. For Ryan, his engagements with his audience and customers have been more about positive vibes. Through the different platforms, Ryan can create an environment of positivity, where relationships are built more naturally.

Consider Thinking Locally

When Ryan started his music label company, he was addressing the challenges in his community. Currently, artists signed to his label have performed across the country and in more than 13 countries across the globe. Similarly, some digital platforms may have a better impact on your locality than others. Companies should then focus on growing their brands with relevant social and digital media platforms that work in their location and then work their way up. Some media platforms have more popularity in some areas as compared to others. Knowing what is more relevant and widely used in your area will help you to drive your digital strategy in the right direction while improving your engagements with the audiences.
