SOCIAL MEDIA 101

1. What is the best social media platform for spas, lifestyle, and food brands?

Instagram still reigns supreme as the go-to social media platform for businesses in the beauty, lifestyle, and food industries. It remains consistent for customer demographics in the Millennial and Gen-X range, acting as a “home base” for customers to confirm information, locations, and compare options in the marketplace. In second place, TikTok has made its mark, particularly as a brand awareness and growth tool. This is an excellent platform for those attracting users in the Gen-Z and Millennial demographics.

2. Which social media platform should I use to promote my business?

At Stef Social, we suggest clients focus on Instagram as their primary platform and supplement their social media traffic with one of the following:

  • TikTok

  • YouTube

  • Facebook

  • Threads

3. What type of content should I share on social media?

In 2024, short-form video and carousel posts of static images are the best content for beauty and lifestyle businesses to post on social media. Attention-grabbing video helps to expand your brand’s following, while thoughtful and educational carousel posts can help develop trust amongst your community. At Stef Social, our team’s strategic combination of these content types will send customers your way time and time again.

4. How can I increase my social media followers for my beauty and lifestyle brand?

While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to growing your following on social media, beauty and lifestyle brands succeed with a combination of easily digestible, high-quality photo and video content, and customized community-building strategies for the particular customers they are seeking to attract. Expanding your social media following requires careful planning, effective strategy, posting relevant content, and reaching the right audience - all tasks we are excited to support you with at Stef Social.
