Like many entrepreneurs and innovators, growing a social media following can help increase the power of your brand. The question is, how do you stand out in such a crowded field of platforms and content creators?

According to Entrepreneur Network partner Neil Patel, growing your social platforms' visibility and popularity can be condensed to a few steps. Patel recommends figuring out what content format works for you and tailoring your content to it. Try experimenting with creating videos or writing longer-form text pieces to determine which area you feel the most comfortable with. The content you are the best at creating will most likely do the best for your brand. Once you've nailed down the best possible content for you, promote your work on social media platforms.

Patel emphasizes the importance of participation with your social platforms. Embrace your social shares and remember to be present on the platform by joining groups and reaching out to other people in your social media community.

By following these tips, gradually, you will be able to build a solid social media following that stands out from the crowd. Click the video to learn more.
