FAQ's About Social Media Content Marketing

Which social media platforms are best for my business?

The right platforms depend on your industry and your customers. For most service-based businesses in WA and around Australia, Facebook, Instagram and Google Business Profile are the strongest performers. LinkedIn is ideal for professional services or B2B. TikTok and YouTube work well for brands comfortable creating video content consistently.

What content performs best on social media?

Content that is:
• helpful
• human
• visually engaging
• focused on your audience’s problems and goals

For small businesses, behind-the-scenes photos, tips, FAQs, staff features, community posts, and short educational videos almost always perform better than sales-driven content.

What are the 5–3–2 or 50–30–20 rules for social media?

These posting frameworks help you balance your content so it does not feel overly promotional.

Examples:
• 50–30–20: helpful content, engagement content, promotional content
• 5–3–2: 5 helpful/value posts, 3 curated/relatable posts, 2 promotional posts

CLP uses a simpler, ADHD-friendly system: Inspire, Educate, Connect, Ask, Convert.

How often should I post on social media?

Quality matters more than quantity. Consistency is what moves the needle.
Most small businesses see the best results from 2–4 posts per week plus weekly activity on Google Business Profile.

What are the pillars of good social media content?

Strong social media accounts usually include a mix of:
• educational posts
• storytelling
• behind-the-scenes
• social proof and reviews
• helpful tips
• community or team features
• promotional posts when needed

This creates a rounded, trustworthy online presence.

What is social media marketing?

Social media marketing is the process of sharing helpful, engaging content that builds trust with your audience over time. It is not about going viral. It is about showing up consistently so people remember your business when they need you.

Does social media actually help my business grow?

Yes, but not on its own. Social media is one piece of your marketing puzzle. When used well, it:
• increases visibility
• builds trust
• supports local SEO
• sends traffic to your website
• helps customers choose you over competitors

It works best when paired with good photography, a strong website and a clear content strategy.

How do I know what to post?

Start with your customers’ questions. Anything you explain often in your business can become a social media post. A content plan makes it easier, which is why CLP includes quarterly strategies in every content package.

What is the “3-second rule” in social media?

People decide whether to keep scrolling or stop within three seconds. Clear imagery, readable text and simple messaging help you capture attention quickly.

hould I boost my posts or run paid ads?

Organic content builds trust and community. Paid ads help you reach more people. Most businesses get the best results using both, even on a small budget.

With CLP on your team, you gain time, clarity and a consistent social presence that works alongside your website, Google Business Profile and SEO.

You do what you do best.

We make sure people see it.
