HubSpot Social Media Marketing FAQs
Before taking the HubSpot Social Media Marketing exam, you should feel confident in demonstrating your knowledge to a potential employer across these 4 core areas:
Social Media
Creating a promotional plan that takes advantage of social and digital technologies will help you shape the conversation, build loyalty, and attract new customers and partners. Social media shouldn’t replace other inbound promotional methods like email, events, or public relations, but instead should augment them, offering another set of marketing channels for you to explore.
Measuring Social ROI
What is social media return on investment, or ROI? Simply put, it’s the results you get from everything you do in social media, ranging from protecting your reputation, building brand awareness and loyalty, retaining and satisfying customers, and directly earning or saving revenue. While social ROI is not easy to measure, you can and should be putting systems in place to regularly track your return on investment.
Content Strategy
Social media is nothing without the content that makes it interesting for its users. Having great content can make all the difference when it comes to having the best reach and engagement for your brand, which in turn builds loyalty and drives sales. It’s important to understand the basic types of social media content, how to develop a strategic plan, and key factors that will help your content have the best results.
Social Media Reach
For brands that really want to amp up their overall reach, it’s important to find ways to get messages into the hands of others—both influencers and the users themselves to proliferate. Social media practitioners need to understand how to take advantage of influencer marketing and how to encourage more people to generate content that highlights your brand, products, and services in a positive way.
This exam is tailored for candidates seeking to enhance their social media marketing skills. It aims to help you develop an engaging and effective social media strategy, enabling you to harness the power of social media to grow both your business and your career.
