Frequently Asked Questions
Should each department have their own social media accounts?
Our channel strategy typically recommends a unified brand presence with coordinated content rather than separate departmental accounts, which can fragment your audience and dilute your impact.
How do we balance content from different departments?
Our content mix framework helps you allocate social presence based on strategic priorities, audience interests, and content quality rather than giving equal time to each department.
Who should have final approval on social media content?
Our governance model recommends a tiered approval system where routine content is approved by social media specialists while sensitive or high-impact content receives broader review.
How do we prevent departments from posting conflicting information?
Our coordination system includes content review workflows, shared calendars with visibility across teams, and clear guidelines about which topics require consultation with specific departments.
