🌿 SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY PROJECT Project Title: Building a Therapeutic Plant Brand Through Social Media Brand: Therapeutic Plant Nursery Prepared by: Giannis Maggo Date: 14/04/2026  1. PROJECT OVERVIEW Objective The objective of this project is to develop a complete social media strategy for a plant nursery that differentiates itself by offering customers the ability to create a therapeutic, stress-reducing corner at home.        Problem Statement Most plant nurseries focus on selling products (plants) rather than solving a real customer problem. As a result: - Customers feel overwhelmed when choosing plants - There is no emotional connection with the brand - The buying decision is based only on price or aesthetics --- Solution This project proposes a wellness-driven social media strategy that positions the brand as a guide in creating calming environments, rather than just a plant seller.     2. BRAND STRATEGY Brand Positioning The brand is positioned as a wellness solution provider, helping customers reduce stress through plant-based environment design. --- Unique Selling Proposition (USP) The brand offers: - Personalized plant recommendations - Guidance in building a “therapeutic corner” - Easy-to-maintain plant solutions --- Brand Voice - Calm and reassuring - Empathetic and supportive - Educational but simple   3. TARGET AUDIENCE (BUYER PERSONAS) Persona 1: Overwhelmed Professional - High stress lifestyle - Needs quick relaxation solutions  Persona 2: Wellness-Oriented Individual - Interested in self-care and mindfulness - Values aesthetics and meaning  Persona 3: Beginner Plant Owner - Lacks knowledge - Needs guidance and simplicity     4. COMPETITOR ANALYSIS Market Situation Most competitors focus on: - Product variety - Pricing - Visual presentation --- Identified Gaps - Lack of emotional branding - No educational content - No structured customer journey --- Strategic Advantage This brand differentiates by: - Focusing on emotional outcomes (stress reduction) - Offering guidance instead of just products - Creating a clear concept: “Therapeutic Corner”     5. SMART GOALS Awareness - Reach 100,000 monthly views within 60 days - Gain 5,000 followers in 90 days Engagement - Maintain engagement rate above 5% - Achieve 50%+ average watch time  Conversion - Generate 50 monthly inquiries - Achieve 20% conversion rate - Sell 30 product bundles per month    6.
