Six Social Media Rules for 2016


Six Simple Laws of Social Media

1. Be yourself… period.. Be Genuine — BE YOU.. not a copy of someone else.
2. DO: Be Professional — if F bombs are ok in your professsion so be it.. however you remove yourself from safe search when you drop them.
3. DONT: Feed the trolls.. Trolls starve without food and your energy and move on to some other mischief.  "Have a nice day" Can sound just like the “basic new york echo” — Robin Williams.. Google it.. better yet. click here (new window)

4. DO Spellcheck.. nothing better than saying somthing extremly smart with typos.. makes you look stoopid, doesnt it?

5. DONT: Run schedulers without lots of tweaking.. and learn how to connect accounts on different social media platforms and networks.. “I posted a Photo to Facebook” really makes me want to look.. also.. if you posted it to twitter.. people would actually see the picture without going to facebook.. which on a mobile device, for me isnt going to happen..

6. DO: Listen, Stop, Listen again, Think.. spellcheck.. check links.. then tweet..
PRO Tip Bonus: after :30 all tweets are archived in library of congress due to downstream twitter feeds and aggregators.. delete any tweets within 8 seconds to insure proper deletion.
