Doing social media can be so time consuming, and sometimes it can be hard to think of things to post.
Today I'm sharing a cheat sheet of prompts for creating interesting content for your social media sites.

~ techniques you have tried
• Share helpful links, resources, blog posts, and videos
• Give ideas for starting their own business

I hope this list helps get your creative juices flowing, and posting on social media will be an easier process and not a chore.
What is your favorite thing to share on social media sites?
I usually share photos cause I'm such a shutterbug. I have a hard time coming up w/ FB statuses....I used to update a lot years ago, but Russell doesn't like that I share too much personal info, so I keep it down to one or two a day.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a list and most helpful. Thank you for compiling it. :)
ReplyDeleteI find that I'm pretty much ignored on social media sites. I'll "like" other peoples' posts and I leave comments but hardly ever do I get a like or a comment in return. Maybe it is just me, I've always been shy and introverted and people read me wrong - they seem to think I'm stand-offish or worse,that I'm stuck-up. :(
These are great prompts! Thanks for the inspiration. =0)

Great list. I can definitely turn several of these into blog posts!
ReplyDeleteGreat list Valerie! I don't do much with social media because I usually don't get a response. If I start selling my things again, I will give it another try though.
ReplyDeleteJust the inspiration I need lately. Thank you!
