Frequently Asked Questions
What content should we put paid support behind?
Our content selection framework helps you identify high-performing organic content with growth potential, strategic content that supports business objectives, and specialized content targeting specific audience segments.
How do we maintain authenticity when using paid promotion?
Our authenticity approach focuses on amplifying your actual organic content rather than creating separate 'ad-like' content, using targeting to reach similar audiences, and maintaining your natural voice rather than adopting traditional advertising language.
How much budget should we allocate to start with?
Our budget framework recommends starting with 20-30% of your total marketing budget for initial testing, focusing on small, targeted campaigns that allow you to gather data before making larger investments.
Will paid promotion alienate our existing organic audience?
Our audience strategy helps you use exclusion targeting to focus paid content on new audience acquisition while continuing to serve your existing followers primarily through organic content, preventing audience alienation.
