In today's age, social media plays a pivotal role in our community. We see the vast importance of social media in all organizations, including pregnancy help centers. These centers exist to provide aid to those women experiencing unexpected pregnancies. One of the best ways to reach those women is through the wide world of social media. In this article, we will discuss how social media can impact the pregnancy help community and expand the reach of these centers to people in need of support.

 

Identifying Your Audience 

One of the most important ways to grow your social media presence is to identify your audience. Who are you trying to reach? First, you need to determine such factors as age, interests, ethnicity, etc. to help you identify your target audience. 

 

Once you have recognized your audience, you can now tailor posts and information to the needs and interests of your audience. You want to figure out what kind of content is producing strong engagement and helping increase your quality following. 

Utilizing metrics and analytics proves to be incredibly useful when tracking trends that people are noticing and keeping up with. These tools also help track what posts resonate more with your intended audience. Social media is always changing, and it is critical to stay in tune with those changes and how they may affect your social media presence.

 

What Kind of Content Do I Share?

When creating content, there are various approaches you can take. Some examples of content could be posts that are encouraging, inspirational, educational, or informative. I have found that a mix of all four of those examples has proven to work well together. However, these ideas are just a few examples when starting to think about content creation. We have found that most women ages 16-25 respond best to inspirational and encouraging content. Inspirational and encouraging content is impactful as it helps remind your audience that they are not alone. In addition to those inspirational and encouraging posts, it might be helpful to share success stories/testimonials of your clients and their experiences with your center. These stories provide more of a personal touch when trying to reach those in your identified audience. 

 

When trying to grow your social media presence, your primary objective should be to expand your audience and maximize interaction and engagement through your content.  As a pregnancy center, you want to build that initial connection and trust through responding and commenting on the engagement you receive through social media. That is where your relationship begins with your clients. It is important to create content that invites your audience to respond and hopefully reach out to you. 

 

Conclusion

With today’s world being so digitally focused, pregnancy centers are needing to have a strong social media presence to bring in their target audience. A well-executed social media strategy will enhance the ability to reach and support those in need, build a strong online community, and promote the mission effectively. Let's commit to making our social media presence a powerful tool for positive change, support, and encouragement.
