30/ 60/ 10:
The Golden Ratio for
Social Marketing
February 2014

@rallyverse

In planning your social media
content marketing
strategy, what’s the right mix of
content?

How much of curated content
should you share?

How much of your owned content
should you share?
And how often should you p...

The easy answer is, ―It depends.‖
But we can do better than that .

We can recommend a
specific ratio.
One that we live by every
day:

30/ 60/ 10
Owned/ Curated/ Promotional

That is,
30 percent of what you share should be
Content You Created.
60 percent of what you share should be
Content You Cu...

Here’s why
(and how):

What counts as your Owned
Content?
Your blog.

Your photos.
Your videos.

Your slides.
Whether they’re hosted on your
own ...

What Owned Content Looks Like:

So if it’s your social media
presence, why only 30
percent Owned Content?

Because you don’t want to talk
about yourself all day.
(It’s boring and self-absorbed).
Because you may not have
enough Ow...

Curated Content

What Curated Content Looks Like:

Why spend so much time on
Your Curated Content?
How does Curated Content
make a difference for your
marketing?

Because it allows you to engage your
community in the most relevant topic
right now.
(That topic might not be you, but tha...

Promotional Content

What’s Promotional Content?

What Promotional Content Looks Like:

Why so little promotional
content?
Isn’t the point of all of this
motivating customer actions
and attitudes?

Because too much selling on social is
a turnoff.
(Too much selling could cause you to
lose followers.)

Because your users...

If you’re looking for guidance on
what the right mix of content is for
your business, we recommend:

30/ 60/ 10
Owned/

Cu...

So if you’re sending 10 Tweets
today, it means:

3 pieces of Owned Content
6 links to Curated Content
1 Call To Action

The 30/ 60/ 10 Ratio In
Action
Owned

Curated

Promotional

Of course, as they say,

YMMV
(Your Mileage May
Vary.)

Perhaps your business is
better with

40/ 50/ 10
Or even

20/ 75/ 5

But our experience says that

30/ 60/ 10
is a great starting point.

And how do you find
the content to fill out
that 30/ 60/ 10
marketing mix?

Don’t worry:

Rallyverse can help .
