What Goes into Crafting the Perfect Tweet?

An article in 2014 from Business Insider revealed that digital design and advertising firm Huge actually spent 45 days planning a single tweet. While some may consider this more than a bit excessive, it does highlight the importance of savvy social media marketing, as well as the distinct shift towards content marketing within the social media framework.

It’s no secret that social networks are now the hub of corporate advertising; as a result, the major social networks Facebook and Twitter have had to impose more discerning filters to stop its feeds being completely glutted with corporate spam. In order to help improve the user experience and stop advertisers inundating their networks with low-quality adverts, social media powerhouses are now demanding higher standards in terms of the content that can now be shared by corporate users.

Not only does this mean online marketers must now spend more time coming up with creative, entertaining or informative content to share on social media profiles, but they must also think of more inventive ways of actually using social media to promote their brand.
