What's a good social media content creation brief template?
-
I'm trying to put together a brief template for our copywriters to use when requesting the creation of a piece of content.
These are the points I have thought of so far are:
- Subject / Topic
- Content Objective
- Desired User Outcome / Call to action
- Sources, References
- Tone of voice
- Related product information
- Target SEO keywords
Can you think of anything else to add?
Do you know good resources (articles, blog post) tackling the subject of a content creation brief?
Thanks in advance.

That's a pretty comprehensive prompt for most skilled writers I think. Tone of voice kind of covers it, but writing style might be an added factor: conversational, encyclopedic, persuasive, etc.

ShopTab Facebook App - Duplicate Content Issue?
Hello I've been trialling an app for Facebook called Shoptab where you can add a shopfront to your Facebook page and then users can browse through the items and when they click buy or more info they are linked through to the main site. The app displays the product, title, description etc so I was wondering if we would run the risk of duplicate content issues by loading our inventory to this app? OR would Google see the hyperlink through to the original item and no damage done? It would be very easy to add our whole inventory to this app. Thanks

Is duplicate content in social media ok?
We use Twitter, Facebook, a blog, and Google +. Currently we create unique content for each. These platforms have the ability to "cross-post" (Where what you put on your facebook or blog gets tweeted, for example). Is it important to keep this content unique? Or can we duplicate across these platforms?
