- Why social media still matters for brand legitimacy and discoverability.
- How to choose the right platform (and why focusing on one is better than spreading yourself thin).
- Building community and engagement instead of chasing vanity metrics.
- Campaign examples that show the power of behind-the-scenes storytelling.
- Step-by-step advice for business owners just starting out, including defining your customer, clarifying your purpose, and creating a content calendar.
