Organic or paid social: what gives the best effect?
Organic content builds the brand, trust and a following over time. It has to be useful, entertaining or instructive enough that people choose to follow you and respond.
Paid content gives you reach you control, and a way to get in front of new audiences quickly. It works best when it amplifies a post that has already done well organically, and when the goal is a specific action such as a purchase or an enquiry. The campaigns themselves are run as part of our PPC service.
We combine the two. Organic posts show which messages people respond to, and paid distribution takes the best of them to a wider audience. The balance differs by business: for restaurants the organic feed does much of the work, online stores lean on product ads, and for law firms it is mostly the partners’ presence on LinkedIn.
