Strategize

Ask the right questions. Be strategic about the platform, the message, the influencer, the production, the copy – preferably all at once. Figure out what success will look like, then pursue it relentlessly.

Clearly define goals and KPIs
Research target and competition and opportunities
Evaluate platforms and influencers simultaneously
Begin crafting the messaging

Create

Content was once king, but now everything is content. When you’re competing not just with other brands for fans’ mindshare, but with cat photos and memes as well, great content is the only way. Don’t strive for viral. Strive for resonant, authentic, well-placed, well-timed, well-made.

Messaging fit for platform, influencer, brand, and fans
Add value to fans through knowledge or access
Speak authentically – be a fan, too
Intelligently integrate branding

Distribution

The new-age, “If a tree falls in the woods…” hypothetical might be something along the lines of, “If great content isn’t backed by an equally great distribution plan…” Application of the PESO model (a mix of paid, earned, social, and owned distribution) will save your great content from poor visibility.
