Why Modern CEOs Must Be Social

Communication is at the very core of our society. That’s what makes us human.” -Jan Koum, Co-founder/CEO Whatsapp 

As the world becomes increasingly digitized, the role of the modern CEO has evolved to include a strong online presence. Now more than ever, it is crucial for CEOs to embrace social media and make it a daily habit.

In today's fast-paced business environment, social media is no longer just a trend or a "nice to have" – it's a necessity. By leveraging platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook, CEOs can connect with customers, partners, and employees in real-time, build a personal brand and stay on top of industry trends and news.

But why is a daily habit so important? Well, think about it this way: if as a CEO you occasionally check their social media accounts, you risk missing out on important conversations and opportunities. You might miss a customer complaint that needs addressing or an industry development that could impact their business. By making social media a daily habit, you will ensure they stay informed and can respond quickly to any issues that arise.

Moreover, social media is a powerful tool for storytelling. In today's digital age, people want to connect with brands on a personal level. Social media allows CEOs to share their company's story and mission, and to humanize the brand. This helps to build trust and loyalty among customers and employees.

The truth is, social media is not just a tool for marketing or public relations – it's a key part of modern business strategy. CEOs who ignore it risk falling behind their competitors. But by embracing social media and making it a daily habit, CEOs can stay ahead of the curve and build a successful, sustainable business.

"In today's digital age, social media is the new water cooler - a place where people come together to share ideas, opinions, and news. As a CEO, if you're not active on social media, you're not just missing out on the conversation, you're missing out on the pulse of your industry and your customers."-Kela

So, the question is, are you ready to embrace the power of social media? Or are you content to miss out on valuable opportunities for your business? The choice is yours.

Step-by-Step Guide on How to Make Social Media Work

 As a CEO, you are undoubtedly a busy person with a lot on your plate. But that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the many benefits that social media can offer. With a little bit of planning and strategy, you can make social media work for you – even with a hectic schedule.

Here are some practical tips to help you get started:

Set clear goals: Before you start posting on social media, take some time to think about what you want to achieve. Do you want to increase brand awareness? Build relationships with customers? Stay on top of industry trends? By setting clear goals, you'll be able to focus your efforts and see measurable results.

Prioritize: Not all social media platforms are created equal. Some will be more valuable to your business than others. Prioritize the platforms that are most relevant to your audience and goals, and focus on those first.

Schedule your posts: To make the most of your time, use scheduling tools like Hootsuite or Buffer to schedule your posts in advance. This way, you can set aside time to plan and create content, and then let the tools do the work of publishing it for you.

Use automation: Social media automation tools can help you save time by automating repetitive tasks like responding to messages or publishing content. This can free up your time to focus on more important things.

Be authentic: Finally, remember that social media is about building relationships. Don't be afraid to be yourself and share your personal stories and insights. This will help you connect with your audience and build trust.

"A CEO who is not active on social media is like a captain who sails without a compass - directionless and out of touch with the world around them."- Kela
