Why might people ignore you?
You think your audience will hear your every word – they won’t
You try to grab people’s attention, when they’re busy
Respect your customers
Listen, before speaking
Engage in a long term relationship
Generate waves as a member of the community
The Value Exchange
Marketing messages are empty and hollow – they can see right through you
You need to invest time & money to build real relationships
Only after you invest heavily, will you get ‘engaged fans’ after 6 months to a year.
Social Media Best Practices
Treat each individual as unique
Give value unconditionally, and in time you’ll start to receive attention
You’ll be off course 90% of the time, so plan to regularly review, and correct your course
