3. As a personal brand, the major social media priority for 2017 is to create
brand awareness among my online community, and eventually expand to a
broader audience, whether that is local, national or international.
The primary focus will be to drive more traffic to the personal Facebook
page by sharing quality content, and building deeper relationships with
audiences by actively engaging with them.
Two major social strategies will support this objective:
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Focus on increasing the volume of content created and published on the
personal Facebook page.
Encourage and foster conversations with audiences in hopes that they will ask
my advice, share their own content with me, or imply about a commission.
4. Social Media Assessment:
SOCIAL MEDIA AUDIT
The following is an audit of my personal brand's social media presence to date. It includes
an assessment of all social networks. There is not enough data to determine web traffic
sources, audience demographics, and competitor analyses at this time.
At the present time, the highest number of interactions per post occurs on Facebook. Little
to no interactions occur on Twitter and Medium, but content creation and engagement will
hopefully increase moving forward.
5. By the end of 2017, the primary objective will be to drive more traffic to the
personal Facebook page through other social media channels. This can be
actualized through expanding online following by sharing quality content and
building deeper relationships with audiences by actively engaging with them.
SOCIAL MEDIA OBJECTIVES
Increased brand awareness through mentions on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest.
Increased use of brand hashtag, #paintersperspective, across all social media
platforms.
Quantitative KPIs:
Some specific objectives include:
Qualitative KPIs:
Increase online following by 30% by the
end of 2017
Increase number of weekly photo and video
posted content to Facebook

engages audiences and sparks conversation

STRATEGIES AND TOOLS
Owned:
To generate brand awareness, any post with organic conversation or activity
will be boosted at the end of each week, depending on budgeting. However,
if budgeting does not allow for boosting every week, then they will be
boosted at the end of every two weeks.
Continue using the #paintersperspective hashtag across all social platforms
to encourage both artists and non-artists to capture and share the moments
of beauty in their life. Share user-generated content throughout the week.

12. At this time, Brynna Kaplan is in charge of the social media roles and
efforts of the personal brand. She serves as the Marketing Director,
the Social Media Manager, as well as the Social Media Coordinator.
However, as the brand builds up over time, tasks will be delegated
to future employees as follows:
SOCIAL MEDIA ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Manager of social media platforms and accounts
Social media coordinator
Content creator and social outreach manager
13. The social media efforts associated with my personal brand are a direct
extension and reflection of my practices and etiquette as a person. The
content posted on my page will be encouraging and uplifting, not spiteful
or downgrading. Social media is meant to connect online communities in
order to share our experiences with one another, not judge others based
on the content they publish. I aim to inspire others by acting as an
example. I will try my best to be kind, respectful, polite, helpful, and
engaging. However, I reserve the right to deem content appropriate or
inappropriate, and have the ability to remove certain posts or comments
if I feel it is necessary.
