For this assignment, I added to my social media campaign plan I was working on in my Social Media Marketing class. I added an editorial calendar, sample content for each channel, an amplification strategy, and a budget and ad copy for Facebook and one other channel.
These items are important parts of a social media campaign because they allow you to plan ahead for both time and budget and show that you understand how to create compelling social media posts and ads for different channels.

7. - The primary goal is to increase brand
awareness in the Greater Lansing area.
- Bunker Busters is a new business for the area
and this goal is a good one to focus on for new
businesses.
- A secondary goal for the social media
campaign will be to increase sales compared to
sales since opening.
PRIMARYGOALFORSOCIALMEDIACAMPAIGN
8. - I selected this primary goal because Bunker
Busters is a new ice cream business and I want
to create a social media campaign to introduce
the Greater Lansing community to them to
accomplish my secondary goal as well and
increase sales (actual purchases).
- Yes, my primary goal does align with the
company’s target market because my target
market is the di
ff
erent types of demographics
that live within the Greater Lansing community.
PRIMARYGOALFORSOCIALMEDIACAMPAIGN
9. - Primary: “Ready for a cool treat in this summer
heat? Checkout our menu on our Facebook
page and come grab a cool, sweet treat!”
- Secondary: “Follow us on Facebook to stay up
to date with new menu options, special events,
and more about us!”
CALLTOACTION(CTA)FORGOALS
10. - I want people to visit the Facebook page for the
menu, hours, and location information to then
be able to come get the ice cream they desire.
- They currently only have a landing page for a
website, but I want to focus on getting more
inter action with their Facebook pro
fi
le as well
CALLTOACTION(CTA)FORGOALS
“WHATDOYOUWANTPEOPLETODO?”
11. 1) Facebook
Facebook will be used since it is the most popular across all
demographics and they already have a profile setup.
2) Instagram
Instagram will be used since they already have a profile and we can
share the new content that we create on it.
3) TikTok
TikTok will be the final channel because they currently do not have
their own profile and TikTok is very popular with the younger
demographics. Currently, they are sharing the profile for the Pro
Fireworks store that they are located in the parking lot of.

38. - Most of the competitors for Bunker Busters in
the Greater Lansing area use photos most often
in their posts.
- I plan to use some photos, but mostly focus on
using video.
- Start a promotion with Pro Fireworks, the
company that Bunker Busters is located in their
parking lot. As an example, spend $50 at Pro
Fireworks, get a free small
fl
urry of your choice.
- I also plan to host an event with one of the
in
fl
uencers as well.
AMPLIFICATIONSTRATEGIES
39. - My 4 week budget for Facebook & Instagram is
$50/day, $25/day each.
- Since Facebook and Instagram are both owned
by Meta, formally Facebook, I can use the Ad
Manager to create ads for Facebook and
Instagram together.
