# Why should social media be aligned with broader business goals?

Social media should align with broader goals so it supports lead generation, customer retention, and brand positioning. When it is disconnected, the activity may feel inconsistent and fail to move the business forward.

Alignment ensures social content reinforces the same messaging and outcomes as other marketing channels. That makes the investment more effective and easier to measure.
