Our social media team is so sh!t. Hopefully the club can bolster this after our success.
I hate to say it, but they really are.

If you look at any other clubs YouTube channel, there is just a stack of new content coming out almost on a daily basis from following their new draftees, to stuff off field and then just a heap of training stuff. We’re lucky to get 6 pictures of training on the clubs X account.

Did I read on here a year or two ago that CEO Greg Swan doesn’t rate SM or see the need for it so this what we’re left with?

Do better in this front Lions b/c you do so much right but you’re lagging badly on SM.

Geez and here I was thinking we were getting a major announcement such as a re-signing or some other significant announcement directly benefiting the club.
Old man's fault. Sack Fagan.
 
Who is even running our social media department at the moment?

p.s. no it’s not me.
 
You'd be good tho.

There's a high chance that a random person from this forum would do better.

Here's a start:
  • More information about training, when, where etc.
  • Ensure that there is sufficient regular content for each age demographic to make everyone feel more connected.
  • More of an effort to report on VFL games and players. What about a weekly video discussing how the VFL team went, perhaps even briefly include how the Fitzroy VAFA team went.
  • Weekly competitions during the season to generate some buzz. Interesting prizes.
  • Try to sell the the club merch more. Even cross promote player interviews with some product placement etc.
  • More interviews with players, especially the new players. Not too long or take sound bites, so can also be used on FB, X and Insta.
  • Semi regular discussion with Swann. Get to know the board members and perhaps other interesting staff.

You've got my vote ROYSey.
 
im pretty sure I saw on LinkedIn that they were looking for additional social media type staff about a month ago
From a nuffie perspective (like most on this site) it would have been good to have them in place over the off-season to really tap into the good vibes from last year and build hype into the new season.

But reality is for most people they probably only need to build that hype over the month (or less) before Round 0/1. Then most of the real work is over the season.

Just glad to see the club tapping into an area that has been a bit underwhelming over the last few years (as much as I get why they didnt see it as a priority)

The Lions have a suggestion comment bit on their Hottest Moment comp I think.
