Define a good LinkedIn content strategy in 4 steps πŸš€

How do I develop a content strategy on LinkedIn to attract, engage, and convert my audience? 🎯

LinkedIn is the place where professionals meet, exchange and build a reputation. To know how to stand out from the crowd and draw attention to your profile or that of your company, it's all a question of content strategy! How do you plan, create, and deliver content that grabs your audience's attention and engages them? πŸš€

‍

Today, we're giving you the keys to shine on LinkedIn. 🌟

‍

Step 1 - Define the main lines of your editorial schedule πŸ“…

‍

To begin with, the priority is to establish a editorial planning. It's the road map for your content, much like a step-by-step procedure to follow throughout a set amount of time.

‍

Why is it important?

‍

πŸ—ƒ To be organized : You always know what to post and when. No more blank page stress!

‍

🧠 To have consistent content : Your content is true to you, your message and to the values of your company. Your audience knows what to expect and you gain credibility.

‍

πŸ“ˆ To easily analyze the results : You can easily measure what works and what doesn't.

‍

A good editorial schedule makes it possible to keep a clear guideline and to ensure regular publication. For example, you might decide to publish a blog post every Monday, an inspirational post on Wednesday, and an infographic on Friday. This gives your content a frame of pace and keeps your audience engaged.

‍

How do you create it?

‍

🎯 Define your communication goals : increase your visibility, generate leads, establish your expertise...?

‍

πŸ“† Choose your publication frequency. It must be reachable (one post every two days, one post per week, 4 posts per month...). Recurrence and rigor are two essential elements for your LinkedIn content.

‍

🎨 Define your themes : Vary the pleasures! Mix topics between inspiring posts, in-depth articles, and practical tips.

‍

A well-designed editorial schedule allows you to stay focused on your long-term goals while being flexible to adapt to unexpected trends and events.

‍

‍

Step 2: Choose your themes (TOFU, MOFU, BOFU) πŸ₯‡

‍

No, it's not a new food trend! These acronyms represent the different stages of conversion funnel.

‍

The conversion funnel is a marketing model that represents the journey of your prospects, from the first contact to the conversion into a customer. TOFU, MOFU, and BOFU are acronyms that describe the three main stages of this journey.

‍

1. TOFU (Top of the Funnel) : This stage is dedicated to attracting the attention of new prospects.

‍

  • Objective : Attract attention, promote your brand and engage in initial contact.
  • Contents : Blog posts, videos, infographics.

‍

2. MOFU (Middle of the Funnel) : At this stage, you are looking to deepen the relationship with your prospects by providing them with more detailed information that is specific to their needs.

‍

  • Objective : It's time to provide concrete evidence of the value of your offer and to strengthen the link with your prospect.
  • Contents: Webinars, case studies, white papers.

‍

3 ️. BOFU (Bottom of the Funnel): This last step should encourage your prospects to take action.

‍

  • Objective : Convert. Here, your content should encourage your prospects to make a decision.
  • Contents : Product demos, customer stories, and special offers

How to integrate TOFU, MOFU, BOFU into your editorial calendar? 🧐

‍

To maximize the effectiveness of your content strategy, it is essential to structure your editorial calendar around these three steps. Here's how:

‍

πŸ‘€ Plan TOFU content at the beginning of the month :Attract new prospects with engaging and educational content. Post blog posts, how-to videos, and infographics to get attention.

‍

Add MOFU content mid-term :

Strengthen the relationship with your prospects by publishing case studies, webinars, and white papers. It's time to provide concrete evidence of the value of your offer.

‍

πŸ‘ Conclude with BOFU content at the end of the month :

‍

Encourage your prospects to take action with product demos, customer stories, and special offers. This content should be compelling and directly oriented to conversion.

‍

By mastering these steps, you can guide your prospects throughout their buying journey, from discovering your brand to making a purchase decision. This requires a good understanding of your personas and a content strategy adapted to each stage. 🎯

‍

Step 3 - Choose what to post. 🎯

‍

Scared of blank page syndrome? Be aware that even the smallest piece of information can turn into a LinkedIn post. Building on the previous approach to the conversion funnel, here are a few ideas that might inspire you πŸ‘‡

‍

  • Case studies : Show your successes with concrete examples.
  • Customer stories : There's nothing like positive reviews to convince.
  • Tip of the day : Share tips and tricks for your job. It's simple and effective.
  • Infographics : Visually attractive and easy to digest.

  • Webinars : Invite your audience to participate in online events.
