We are often asked about a recipe for success when it comes to effective social media marketing. Since every franchise business is different, there is no obvious hard and fast rule. However, we have developed this Frequency of Service chart as a starting point. If your social media team will follow this simple routine, then you can be sure that they are implementing best practices and setting your franchise up for success. Many of the franchise brands that show up at the top of the FSI 100 are following a similar routine.
In future posts we will go into more detail about implanting the individual steps. In the meantime, feel free to contact us if you need help in any of these areas.
