Social Media for Your Small Biz

People like to talk.  Why not use it for your small biz?  What am I talking about?  I am talking about social media.  People are using the social media platforms for all kinds of reasons.  They are checking up on friends and family or talking about the stuff that they like. They are following news items and commenting on their favorite things.  

Social media sites like twitter are really quick ways to share info.  How can you use this for your small biz?  Create social media profiles and use them.  

Lead online in social media by posting information.  You can post information about your business or you can create comments in general.  What are the current topics being discussed on social media?  Twitter has a list of the trending topics.  Take a look at them to see if they fit your small biz niche.  What do you think about the twitter trends?  Post a quick tweet.

Fill out your social media profiles.  Provide good looking graphics and be sure to include links to your websites and blogs.  Learn about the details of the sites that you choose to use.  They have rules and functions.  Do you know how to use a hashtag?  Do you know how to retweet or do a direct message?  Learn the basics of the platform.

Leverage social media for your biz.  It is a quick way to get news and a good way to interact online.  Social media posts might be used for more than just short texts.  Do you have links to pictures, videos, audios or new blog posts?  Add them to your social media timeline.
