Who Does Content Marketing Well?

What Lorna Jane does better than most brands is live (and effectively communicate) its philosophy, or
reason for being - 'Move Nourish Believe'; so much so it has become a key content driver for the
company.
Its standalone Move Nourish Believe website essentially acts as the brand's content hub - it features
heaps of articles of interest and relevance to its target audience (i.e. it doesn't just bang on about Lorna
Jane products but covers topics such as healthy eating, skincare, lifestyle and motivation, plus profiles of
Lorna Jane 'active living advocates'); plus forums,videos, healthy recipes and details regarding Lorna
Jane events.
Social media platforms such as Facebook (close to 900,000 likes), Twitter (23,500
followers), YouTube(where its videos continue to rack up multiple of thousands of views), Tumblr (for
daily doses of inspiration and motivation), Instagram (180,000+ followers) and Pinterest (17,000
followers).
The brand also has a free iPhone app that "Track your runs, walks and cycles via your iPhone GPS while
you move to live an active life".

Choose the Best Social Media Channel for You
Where are your customers?
Here are some of our surprising findings:
• Facebook still skews young, but the 45- to 54-year-old age bracket has seen 45%
growth since year-end 2012. Among U.S. Internet users, 73% with incomes above
$US75,000 are on Facebook (compared to 17% who are on Twitter). Eight-six per
cent of Facebook’s users are outside the U.S.
• Instagram: 60-eight per cent of Instagram’s users are women.
• Twitter has a surprisingly young user population for a large social network — 27%
of 18 to 29-year-olds in the U.S. use Twitter, compared to only 16% of people in
their thirties and forties.
• LinkedIn is international and skews toward male users. NOTE: B2B
• Google+ is the most male-oriented of the major social networks. It’s 70% male.
• Pinterest is dominated by tablet users. And, according to Nielsen data, 84% of U.S.
Pinterest users are women.
• Tumblr is strong with teens and young adults interested in self-expression, but only
8% of U.S. Internet users with incomes above $US75,000 use Tumblr.

Rule of Thumb – The Schedule
Invest in understanding Social Media
Did you Know?
Facebook recently revised their guidelines: ads will not be
approved for placement in the News Feed because the ad
image is more than 20% text. Instead, use ad images that are
mostly graphic with minimal text.
