“Authentic”. It’s one of marketing’s biggest buzzwords. Authenticity has become brands’ North Star on social, but what does that word actually mean? Our content marketer Melissa Harvey wants to find out. In this episode, Melissa’s diving into SocialChain’s brand-new white paper Forget Real: Why Brands Should Aim Higher Than Authentic on Social. Together with its contributors, senior creator Eve Young and midweight creator Georgia Hill, they uncover why brands should stop trying to be authentic and start holding themselves accountable instead; why your setbacks shouldn’t be swept under the rug; why self-righteousness is failing brands as a creative play; and how you can build genuine community that equates to more than just followers.
