There are no

secrets on the

interweb.

Don’t post anything that you wouldn’t say to someone’s face in real life. In front of your boss. Or grandma.

Be strategic:

develop a solid

foundation before

you expand.

Establish your foundation.Show the world you can do the thing you want.

@courtneymallam

The next step can be a scary one: Share it.

And then move on up.

Never miss a chance to look polished.(You never know who may be looking.)

Write your social media bio. Include:

1. Your three topics

2. Something about your life

3. Something unique about you.

*** BONUS POINTS Don’t be lazy when you’re describing yourself: avoid the words random, quirky, or anything else super-vague and trendy. Everyone says they’re random. It’s not a thing.

PROTIP:

Be genuine and consistent.If you're doing things just for followers – that’s all you’ll get.

But if you're doing things for the sake of personal growth and desire to share - you will find a community. Community is much different than followers.

PROTIP: Start with where you’re at.“You'll feel like you don't belong and like it's awkward at times, but with time, experience, and practice it will start to come together.

Just jump in and you'll figure it out as you go. Look at my journey over the past year and a half: I couldn't take a picture to save my life, but I did it anyway.”

“The blending of all of my passions led me to start my blog, Urban Native Girl, which is all about pop-culture with an Indigenous twist. It was born in 2007 out of a desire to fuel my fire online and engage in writing, social media, and connect with Native people from all across Turtle Island (North America).”
