19. FINAL ASSESSMENT Although our content was only shared twice, it reached as many as 95. My suggestion is to follow through with the series with the super kids photos in various poses that will make them shareable. I also suggest to begin using a four week calendar to plan the posts. It should include the new #TransformationTuesdays with pictures of repurposed propane tanks. Find content to curate on the new Youtube Channel, try Vimeo as a source. Include of photos of your company culture to humanize the company, that will add shareable content as well. Add a stream to the Hootsuite account for your competition so that you are able to see what is working for them. Ask employees to follow each account and share any content. Use the geotagging feature to better pinpoint your audience. Overall, finding ways to engage with the audience is the key for success!
