Wasting Time on Social Media Show Notes

Bryan Person – Social Media Consultant You have a finite amount of time to create content. Where is the best place to spend that time? Choose the social media channel that is best for you based on;

  • Your marketing purpose
  • Your marketing challenge
  • Where your customer will be
  • How much time you have to spend on social media
  • The strength of each social media tool

Twitter is the lazy man’s social media tool. It’s easy to post 140 characters and amass a lot of followers. It takes more time and thought to maintain a blog.

Blogs give you credibility, authority, and search engines like blogs. Find Bryan on the web: BryanPerson’s personal blog Twitter: @BryanPerson
