Social media managers, buckle up: this episode is packed with tactical takeaways, creative campaign inspo, and a healthy dose of real talk from someone who's been in the trenches.

Vania Degenhardt joins us Behind the Post to take us deep into her content creation process from audience-first thinking to platform-specific strategy.

She breaks down how to craft content that resonates with multiple personas, shares the anatomy of a high-performing campaign (like an employee-driven pet costume contest that crushed engagement), and explains how to tailor content to fit each platform’s unique user experience.

We also get into why your employees are your secret weapon on social, how to inspire advocacy without forcing it, and yes, we go there on the “links in comments” debate.

And if you’ve ever had someone question your expertise just because they have a Facebook account, this one’s for you. Vania closes with a powerful reminder of your value as a social pro.
