As an outdoor enthusiast, we all belong to a group of pages on social media that produce great content, products, and tips. In the blog, we are highlighting the top 5 hunting brands on Social Media and what they do that separates them from every other brand.
Sitka Gear
This would not be a hunting list if Sitka was not on it. Displaying what your personal feelings towards Sitka may be, it is undeniable that their social media pages are elite when compared to others in the hunting industry. Sitka’s Instagram tells the story if you scroll through the feed. The story Sitka has developed through the feed shows every aspect of the hunt, from preparation to consumption.
Ducks Unlimited Inc
Ducks Unlimited Inc undoubtedly has a great following on all of its social media channels. Focusing on their Facebook and Instagram, they have a combined 1.8 million followers. One reason they have been able to grow this big is through staying ahead of the curve when it comes to social strategies. In January 2022, Instagram allowed content creators to collaborate on posts. As we see in this example, Ducks Unlimited is already using this feature in order to promote their 5k run the DU Dash. When brands try out new features on social media, the platforms reward this behavior by increasing the reach of the post.
Kuiu
Kuiu’s social media strategy incorporates two types of giveaways:
The first giveaway is focused to collect emails through a link in their bio. These giveaways work extremely well when paired with instantaneous email and a call to action.
The second giveaway is geared to increasing engagement. As we can see from their copy, the rules of entry are to follow, tag a friend, and share. These giveaways work well when they have some sort of paid social aspect behind them.
