Social Media Law # 1 • The deeper the level of
engagement, the deeper the trust/bond with your company!
• Nothing happens without engagement! • Engaged people BUY (and share)

– Engagement more difficult– Have to work harder to “get ‘er done”– Everybody is doing it!–More message clutter– Facebook Algorithm make posts more relevant!• Kills engagement dead in reality with

fans!

search!• Connects the company with the viewer.• Stimulates emotions!• Fun to watch! (funny too) • Either subtle or overt call to action!
