Providing life skills, safety skills, and child care training in order to build safer communities.
Marketing flyers are a great way to spread the word about your upcoming Safe Sitter® classes. This service is free to you as a Safe Sitter® Provider and the flyers are sent to your inbox immediately. (To create a marketing flyer, visit Marketing Request Form.) You can create the flyers as an image file to share on social media, or you can use the tools below to create custom social media images.
Social media is a great resource to promote upcoming classes. Download the image templates below to create custom images. You must have PowerPoint in order to use these templates. Each template has been created based on the size requirements of the social media platform. The first slide of the template gives specific instructions for creating the images.
Remember that social media is a “social” tool. The comment section of your post is a great place to reply to parents that may have questions about upcoming classes. Make sure you check for comments regularly.
Customize images for your Safe Sitter® and Safe@Home classes. Make sure you include hashtags to expand your reach. Instagram does not allow you to include a linkable URL in the description so it is best to use an easy URL or link to it in your page bio.
Facebook is the most popular social media platform allowing you unlimited characters and linking registration URLs. Join parenting groups in your area and post within those groups to get the most reach for your post.
If you have a large Twitter following, you may find success posting information about upcoming classes to this platform. Character count is restricted so it is best to use shortened URLs.
Before you start posting, take a look at your social media analytics and determine the demographics of your audience. If you have a fan base that is mostly teens, create your marketing messages to speak directly to the teens. If you tend to have more parents interacting with your brand on social, direct your messages to speak to them.
Use the sample posts below as a guide when creating your social posts. Most social media platforms do not allow users under the age of 13 so it is best to advertise to parents. Each post contains a link for an image you can download to accompany the post.
