Why Social Media Marketing is Crucial for Australian Businesses
Australia has around 20.8 million social media users, making up 78.3% of its total population. This highlights the significant role social media plays in connecting brands with their target audience.
Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, for example, have become essential channels for companies to engage with both potential and existing customers.
With the right marketing team and strategies, brands can promote their products, share their stories, and build meaningful connections with their target audience in just a few clicks.
High Social Media Usage in Australia
Like other developed countries, Australia has high social media usage. Therefore, growing businesses should stay on top of current trends in AU’s social media landscape and use it to their advantage.
Here are some key statistics:
Surveys show that Facebook is the most preferred social media platform in Australia, with around 15 million users. However, TikTok, Instagram, and LinkedIn are also gaining popularity, particularly among younger demographics.
Most Australian social media users are between 18 and 34, so it’s essential for brands that target them to maintain a presence on their preferred platforms, such as Instagram and TikTok.
However, users aged 35 and older are generally more active on Facebook and LinkedIn, so brands that cater to this group should pivot accordingly
Aussies spend an average of 1 hour and 51 minutes per day on social media, with many checking their accounts multiple times a day. This provides businesses with numerous opportunities to connect with their audience through timely and relevant content.
With the rise of short form content like 30-second videos, many Australians are favouring short videos and live streaming. Video content is becoming increasingly popular in the country, so businesses should incorporate videos into their social media strategies to capture their target audience’s interest.
According to studies, 98% of Australian users access social media on their phones. This means brands should optimise their content for mobile viewing to further enhance the user experience.
Australians are also using social media to find and buy products. For example, TikTok now has a yellow basket feature that allows users to order products instantly.
This trend indicates that businesses should not only promote their offerings on social media but also create seamless shopping experiences
Customer Engagement and Trust
Social media is a powerful tool for building authentic customer relationships. It allows brands to connect with their target audience in real-time, creating meaningful interactions beyond traditional advertising. Here’s how:
Direct Communication - Social media enables two-way communication, allowing customers to comment, send direct messages, or join live sessions. This interaction makes customers feel heard and valued, especially when the brand responds directly to their questions and concerns.
Personalised Engagement - Social media analytics also allows brands to tailor messages based on individual customer preferences. This helps customers feel a deeper, personal connection to the brand.
Transparent Brand Culture - Brands use social media to highlight their values, ethics, and behind-the-scenes moments. Unlike TV commercials or billboards that focus on polished end products, social media lets brands share authentic stories, such as introducing the people behind the brand or revealing the product development process.
Data-Driven Marketing
Social media relies on data to deliver results. In fact, a social media marketer heavily depends on this data to enhance a brand’s online presence. They look at trends, engagement, interactions, and other factors to determine which type of content should be shared and when.
Let’s take a look how it’s done:
Audience Segmentation
Platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok offer analytics that provide detailed demographic, geographic, and psychographic data about followers and audiences.
Brands use this data to identify key customer segments, enabling more personalised and effective marketing. It also helps refine messaging and ensures that relevant campaigns reach the right audience.Content Performance Analysis
Social media metrics reveal which types of content perform best, such as videos, images, articles, or live sessions.
Therefore, social media marketers analyse metrics like comments, likes, shares, and view times to decide which content styles and topics should be produced more frequently.Trend Identification and Adaptation
Social media is a fast-paced environment and brands must keep up with trends to gain traction. With the right mix of wit, relatability, and timing, well-executed content can reach millions of social media users within hours.
Thus, marketing strategies should align with current topics and themes popular with the target audience. This is especially important as social media algorithms prioritise showing users content similar to their search history, interactions, and engagements.Product Development and Refinement
A social media marketer also provides brands with valuable customer feedback on products and services. They look at comments, reviews, and customer inquiries that discuss pain points, desired features, or aspects of products that resonate well with customers.
This feedback helps brands improve their products, allowing them to create offerings that better meet customer needs and preferences.

Skills Assessment Tests - Remote Staff also administers role-specific skills tests to evaluate a candidate’s technical proficiency. For example, writers may be asked to submit a writing sample, while graphic designers might complete a design test.
