Welcome to the Social Media Certification workbook. You’re about to start an exciting journey to transform your understanding and approach to social media marketing.  

Today’s digital revolution has fundamentally changed how people gather and consume information. Gone are the days when consumers had to rely on companies to tell them what to buy and what to think about their products or services. Consumers instead prefer to discover relevant information on their own and through trusted friends or resources. Most importantly, they prefer to do so at a time and place most convenient to them.

Just sharing some free knowledge that we hope you’ll find useful. Keep us in mind next time you have marketing questions!

  • Social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn allow users to connect with friends, family members, classmates from high school and college.
  • Image sharing & messaging sites like Instagram and Snapchat have seen major growth in the past few years as more people are using their phones for image capturing rather than a camera.
  • Video sharing sites such as YouTube are great platforms for marketing videos but it's important to consider how they're used in your company or industry before you invest time into them.

The best way to start Social Media Optimization (SMO) is by optimizing your content. This includes making sure it's engaging and shareable, using social media analytics to understand how people are interacting with your posts, experimenting with optimal posting times, and hashtags. You should also optimize your profiles for the various networks you're on. To learn more about SMO, download HubSpot's Free Social Media Workbook, filled with SMO tips.
