Welcome to the week!
How do you approach the office on a Monday morning? Are you like Jay Z and dreading the 99 problems waiting in your inbox? Are you like Kanye West and telling the world good morning? Or are you one of those creative types quoting John Lennon and telling people you are the walrus?
However you are starting out your Monday, here’s the marketing news you need to kick off your week with style. Coo-coo-cachoo!

Learn from the Lovers
Valentine’s Day is a memory, right? Right – but that doesn’t mean you can’t learn from how the day went down. Jenny Pratt at Dash Hudson took a look at how some of the most successful brands on Instagram leveraged different strategies to improve engagement and extend reach on Valentine’s Day. Proving there is more than one way to skin a cat (or to win a heart) Urban Outfitters, Free People, and For Love and Lemons all employed different tactics to win out on the most romantic day of the year. Read, and learn.
Better Blogging
The team at CoSchedule has pulled together a great guide to planning your blog posts in just ten minutes. We here at DOZ are fans of planning, of course, and we’ve looked closely at blogging and blogging platforms over the past few years as key elements in an online marketing plan. Blog posts, sadly, don’t write themselves, at least not until the robots entirely take over. And until then, getting a plan on paper or screen before starting to bang away at the keyboard is an essential step towards crafting the perfect piece of content. Check it out.
Organic Just Tastes Better
Organic traffic, that is. At Search Engine Journal Erin Robbins O’Brien explores strategies to life the organic reach of your social media efforts. She outlined seven specific strategies by which businesses can reach out to followers, fans, and potential customers via social media, including keyword research, peripheral competitor research, and mirroring changes in audience language. Sound a little double-dutch? It’s actually straightforward. Read the whole thing and get your social game on point.
