Social media tactics tend to fall into 3 categories:

The correct answer is Paid, Owned, Earned (POE). This framework categorizes all types of media a brand uses to reach its audience. Paid media includes advertising, sponsored content, and influencer marketing where money is exchanged. Owned media refers to channels a brand controls, such as its website, blog, and social media profiles. Earned media is content generated by third parties, like reviews, mentions, shares, and organic word-of-mouth, which is "earned" through good performance or engaging content. The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the widely accepted and comprehensive categories for social media tactics. "Aimed, Taught, Bought" uses vague terms. "Earned, Borrowed, Acquired" introduces "borrowed" and "acquired" which aren't standard media types in this context. "Earned, Influenced, Purchased" uses "influenced" and "purchased" which are subsets or synonyms of the POE model rather than distinct categories.
