  2. The visual - businesses need to have a visual voice, strategy and content. 
  3. Mobile - the more active a business becomes in the social media space, the more mobile-ready its website/digital assets must be.
  4. Process - a company's social media program has to be defined by process and always optimised.
  5. Advocacy - advocacy will allow an organisation to scale, gain access to, and generate brand awareness from networks and communities.
  6. Ownership - this involves ownership by the brand or business of the content, strategy and social media process employed. 
  7. Education - focus more on social media education and raising the social media literacy of employees.
  8. Paid social - allocate resources towards paid social in order to amplify content, build brand awareness, bring users into the social media funnel and augment all social media efforts.
  9. Automation - if conducted correctly, automation enables companies to scale their social media.
