INTERACT= If you’re not willing or wanting to be SOCIAL, then avoid social media.
It’s always best to listen first
The masses are not waiting to hear from you
Establish trust with your developing audience
Set your goals and work towards them

Involve Your Staff, Especially Those That Are Interested
They might already be on Twitter, FB & “get it”
They can influence others to FAN you on FB
They are font line employees with knowledge and customer service skills to share

Social Media FEAR

Remember the fears of automation, computers, the internet? Social Media is here to stay & will evolve.
Having a plan offers control
