There are two overarching types of social media marketing: organic and paid.
Organic social media marketing relies on a well-conceived strategy – determined after a social media audit to determine its current effectiveness – and incredible content to drive engagement and brand awareness naturally (or organically). This is generally the preferred way of improving a business’ social media performance long term.
Conversely, paid social media marketing utilises audience targeting and data learning strategies to get your content where it needs to be quickly. This incurs additional costs, which is why paid social is often used as a quick win solution while organic social starts to gain traction.
