Blind Pig Media

Did you know that 49% of 18 to 29 year olds have purchased something they saw in a social media ad?

Even if your target market doesn’t fall within this bracket, just think about how the market is transforming through social media. And if your target market DOES fall within this bracket - are you utilising social media effectively to capitalise on this spending trend?
... More than ever, the younger generation is looking to make online rather than in-store purchases, so ensure you’re offering them every opportunity to benefit from your own products/services through social media too.

All I hear is radio gaga… especially when it’s #NationalRadioDay
Tell us, what kind of radio station do your prefer?
Some smooth listening, heavy rock, or dubstep that you can pretend sounds like aggressively popping popcorn?

Once more to the breach, pigtastic pals!
It’s time to fight back against the #SundaySlump with another Blind Pig Media #productivityhack -
Tackle tasks one step at a time.
... It can feel overwhelming to get on top of EVERYTHING in one go, so break it down.
Set a timer. For example, you could spend 10 minutes tidying up a room in your house (in preparation for when it goes to pot in the week ahead) and you’ll most likely find yourself energised to organise the whole space!

Sure, we all know that Saturday is the best day of the week, but did you know *this* about our fav?
Saturdays were designated as vampire-hunting day. Back in ye olde times - of course.
That’s right.
... It was believed that vampires were contained to their coffins on this special day, thus making it easier to take them out, Van Helsing style.

Some people may be grossed out by their little porkies, but we personally love our trotters.

You may have noticed that on Tuesday 14th August, we put out a post with the hashtag #ThoughtForTuesday…
But did you spot that on the graphic itself we ACTUALLY included the hashtag #ThoughtForThursday?! 😲
If you did indeed spot this disprenency - 10 points to Gryffindor! You passed the test! 🙌 🤗
... If you didn’t - well, maybe ask yourself WHY you didn’t.
How much attention *are* you paying to what you absorb on social media? 🤔
Mistakes like this happen far too frequently, and for businesses it can be catastrophic… especially if hundreds of messages then flood your inbox pointing out said mistake.
So the moral of this story is to check, check and check again each social media post you’re sending out.
Nobody wants an inbox avalanche, after all. 😉

Our #ThoughtForTuesday is about Facebook marketing & how you can make the most out of this social media tool.
So here are a few of Blind Pig Media’s tips:
Make sure you’re not just sharing links from other sources (your audience wants to see original content & your actual personality!)
... Know the best times to post throughout the week (e.g. 1pm to 3pm is reported to have much higher engagement than 5pm to 7pm on FB)
Don’t leave people hanging - if they post a question on your page, make sure to answer it in a reasonable amount of time (as this will give a good impression of your quality of customer service!)

Here’s some #WednesdayWisdom for the small businesses and solo entrepreneurs out there...
#inspiration #motivational #GoTheWholeHog #GoBigWithThePig #blindpigmedia

It’s reported that 50% of 18 to 24 year olds go on Facebook when they first wake up.

So if you’re targeting a younger audience, think about how this statistic may impact your content scheduling.
... If you’re not getting much traction, consider posting earlier in the day - snatching their attention first thing.

Here’s a tip to get you all prepared for the week ahead:
Instead of last minute stressing about what to take for a packed lunch, why not try batch cooking for the week ahead?
Not only will this save you from constantly popping out of the office and blowing the best part of £10 on a sarnie and smoothie each afternoon, you’ll also have healthier and tastier options to hand.
