Great employees make great companies. If you’re doing it right, your greatest asset is inside your doors already. They are your internal customers aka, your employees. I recently had a talk with Brian Fanzo (@iSocialFanz) of Broadsuite about how your employees can be a vital part of your social media marketing strategy.

Employee Advocacy

• Engage your employees and let them be active participants in spreading your message.
• Use internal stories to relate with your community.

Upcycling Content

Take a great piece of content and utilize it across multiple social networks and in multiple formulas. For example, you could take a video or podcast and turn it into a blog post and then make an infographic and then make a slideshare. Of course you can share all of this across your social media platforms. You will reach a broader audience this way without the need to come up with tons and tons of new content.
