Social Geek Tip for Next Week: Share 2 Pieces of Curated Content Per Day

social-media- blocks

 

If you want to quickly build your brand’s fanbase, there’s no easier way than to share some relevant, interesting content from a news source, blog, or other page. Starting next week, commit to sharing at least 2 posts per day on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and any of your other social assets.

3 would be better…4 would be even better!

In The Art of Social Media, Guy Kawasaki and Peg Fitzpatrick recommend 4 posts per day on Facebook and a whooping 25 per day (!) on Twitter just to rise above the noise. But, if you still think you’re too busy right now, at least get the ball rolling with a commitment of 2 shares per day of cured content. And then when you see good results, keep going!

Here’s your Social Geek Tip for Next Week: Check out The Art of Social Media by Guy Kawasaki and Peg Fitzpatrick.  

I am usually not a fan of books written about social media — which ironically lack interactivity! But this book is truly a collection of tips that you can use every day and some excellent best practices. Extra tip – don’t buy the printed version, get the ebook complete with links to videos and live examples!

IFA 2012 Tweetup

The International Franchise Association‘s annual conference is just a few weeks away and the social media discussion is already top of mind for many attendees. With keynotes from top social media influencer Guy Kawasaki and leading broadcast media host Bill O’Reilly, communications and particularly social engagement will bet the biggest topic of the conference this year.

I’m glad to once again be organizing the unofficial Tweetup with my friend Deb Evans to kickoff the first night with some informal networking and discussion of social media with franchise pros. Our 3rd Annual IFA Tweetup will take place in the lobby bar of the Orlando World Center Marriott on Saturday just after the Taste of Franchising. RSVP today below and please share with your colleagues using the hashtag #ifatwtup!
