Making Small Tweaks Can Give a Fresh Look
So I was on Facebook the other day…not really abnormal since I spend a lot of time on that site…it’s all work related…honestly! But as I was exploring the latest items on my feed I noticed something different when I went to click “Like” on it. Learn more from this short video how small tweaks to existing idea can change an older look and make it fresh and new.
When Facebook decided to make some simple changes to these emoji reactions, they did 2 things:
- It capitalizes on tent-pole events and gave it a fresh look. These changes were minor tweaks but caused Facebook to be kept in the conversation especially around that day or special event.
- It’s just fun. Think about it, when you get burned and disappointed you go on and on about what happened to all your friends and whoever or whatever company burned you gets a lot of bad press. BUT, when you get surprised in a fun way, you want to tell everyone about how cool and fun that person or group is. This is what Facebook did by making these simple changes. They gave us some fun that we can talk about thus giving them good press.
What Facebook did here was not life-changing or earth shattering in any way. But they took something old and freshened it up. In the same way, you can latch on to these tent-pole and holiday events over the next few months and make some simple changes to your social media, web or communication stuff that will help people have some fun while also getting them talking about you and your church.
