Social Media 
• Keep the posts short (posts under 80 characters show 27 % more

Social Media 
• Keep the posts short (posts under 80 characters show 27 % more 
"engagement") 
• Avoid using capital letters 
• Best time to reach users: 8am, 12pm-1pm, and 5pm-11 pm 
• Use questions in your posts (a question should always be positioned 
at the end of the post → results in 15 % higher engagement rate - 
When, where, would, why, how, which - “Which lamp do you prefer?”) 
• Take advantage of different occasions by customizing posts 
For example: Mother’s Day - 
“Did you forget to buy something to your mother? This is the perfect 
gift..."
Social Media 
• Put the Facebook and Instagram Icon on the top of 
your webpage → more easily seen and clicked 
(Today the icon is in the bottom) 
• Promote your Facebook page and Instagram account 
in-store (walls, packaging, business cards & doors) 
→ creates awareness
