As we approach the end of August, it’s a perfect time to up your social media game and keep your audience engaged.
To help you out, we’ve put together 15 fantastic ideas for social media posts that you can use throughout the month.
Each idea is framed as a question, making crafting engaging and interactive content easy. Let’s dive in!
15 Social Media Post Ideas

Highlight a success story that showcases the impact of your training. Aim to describe it as an inspiration – your reason to keep teaching.

11. How do you handle challenges during training sessions?

12. What’s one piece of advice you’d give to someone new to your field?

15. What are your top three tips for maintaining work-life balance while pursuing professional development?
Create Multiple Posts!
One of the biggest mistakes you can make is limiting yourself to a single post out of a piece of information. Instead, create multiple posts!
An answer to any of these questions can be an image with text, a carousel post on LinkedIn, a multiple-image post on Instagram, a blog post, or even a longer video or numerous short videos.
To create all of these, however, you must first start by answering the questions in a form that makes sense to you – in a document, notepad, whiteboard; whatever works best for you.
Once you’re ready, you can create the posts yourself or even use a freelancer from platforms such as Fiverr to help you.
Final Thoughts
Social media is a remarkable platform, but it only rewards active users. Don’t be afraid to start; you might be surprised by the benefits.
Post-creation is much like a muscle: the more you do it, the easier it gets.
We look forward to seeing your posts online!
