3. Executive Summary
● My major social media priorities for 2016 will be growing my online
following and expanding my appeal towards my targeted community.
I aim to maximize a diverse array of engaging content on my social
media channels, with the primary goal of building a deeper
relationship with my current followers while simultaneously driving
traffic to my other channels.
● Two major social strategies that will support this statement:
1. A plan to increase the personalized content on my social
media outlets that expresses a clear and unique tone that
reflects my personal brand.
2. Promote content on a specific channel that can be found on
another channel, and ensuring the content is easily
discoverable.

The following analysis focused on two competitors who have strong presences on
Facebook, Twitter, and personal websites. High quality posts are one of the main

the competition has room for improvement is being consistent on all social media channels
