Information found in
2015, that the average
attention span had
dropped from 12
seconds in 2000 to
8. When it comes to
making decisions
we start with our
emotions.
Studies have shown
that people are unable
to come to a decision if
they are not
emotionally influenced
in some way.

We use a tool called Pixlee
to find these images, and
get the permission. The
images showcase the
products we sell, and are
more authentic than
model pictures.

The jersey evolution posts are
great examples as these
appeal to all sorts of fans.
Especially when it concerns a
team which didn't win the
championship since 1908,
Cubs, fans do like the
nostalgia of the content.

Learning from what fans are
searching for, we tailor the
content to the search demand
when we find a topic.
Example: What does the GSH
stands for on the Chicago Bears
jersey. We leverage our
Facebook Fan pages to
distribute the content, and get
high engagement on these.

not used Google to search
for anything in over 2
years, and that she uses
Pinterest because it gives
her everything she is
looking for in an easy to
consume visual format.

Building your brand
goes well beyond just
the “branding” of
your website.
You need to have an
identity on places like
Facebook, Instagram
and Twitter.

visual content is
incredibly important for
branding - Because links
are important focus on
creating visual content
that will earn links.

Instagram story updates) and you can only get these behind the scene
ideas and tips from him on Instagram.

Think about it being
a good place to
build community,
interact with
customers, help
them, answer
questions, share
and grow together -
crowd source them
73. @Matt_Siltala
So what does content like
these previous examples do?
It makes me want to follow
them and be a part of their
community.
That leads to more of what
they post in front of me, that
leads to me be very familiar
with them and when I need
(or want) to purchase
something in their
industry - I will go to them.

(collaborating with influencers and creating content that THEY want to share) it makes it much easier this way vs traditional outreach where you create the content and BEG for links.
Hank Hill always says “That boy aint right” when talking about his son. Thought it would make a good title – reference the show further. Feel free to change it though if you need to.
Pay attention to the top performing visuals on Pinterest, FB, Instagram or Twitter (for example) and repurpose those for other networks - or use them in blog posts - take smaller trimmed down versions of big infographics and make them smaller digestable ones for Instagram or make animated gifs out of them for those type of networks.
