What Really Goes Into a Social Media Strategy
Description
Before you post one more piece of content, stop and ask yourself these 12 questions.
In this episode, Ruthie Sterrett breaks down the real foundations of a social media strategy that works in 2025. Forget the endless “shoulds” you hear from online gurus—post more, use hashtags, jump on trends—this is about building a strategy that aligns with your business goals and makes social media feel manageable again.
You’ll walk away with clarity around what kind of content to create (personal vs business-focused), how often to post, which platforms to prioritize, and what type of engagement plan actually works for busy founders. Ruthie shares the same questions she uses in strategy sessions with clients to cut through the overwhelm and create a system that supports growth without burning you out.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re shouting into the void on Instagram, exhausted by the “shoulds,” or questioning if going viral even matters, this conversation will help you breathe again. You’ll learn how to make intentional choices about your content and build a strategy that supports both your business and your life.
