Posted on January 25, 2012 by Terri Mason

Do you feel overwhelmed by all the content on your social media channels? Are you wondering if you’re missing something or frustrated by the number of duplicate posts you see on a daily basis? You’re not alone.

Does anyone read my links?

Posted on July 20, 2011 by Terri Mason

Do you ever wonder just how many people really read the links you post on Facebook or Twitter, for example? Does anyone really care?

Sometimes it’s hard to say if anyone at all is paying attention to your Facebook or Twitter accounts. Not everyone is an influencer or active participant who will let you know what they thought of your link. If you’re posting good quality content and your followers are genuine, odds are good they’re listening. The problem is many people are more likely to observe than join a discussion.

Do you have a Corporate Social Media Policy?

Posted on June 1, 2011 by Terri Mason

Many of us are using social media in our day-to-day lives. Yes, even during work hours. Many small business owners don’t see a potential problem with social media use and leave it to the employees to practice “good judgment” and use common sense. The idea that someone would post inappropriate statements, photos, or comments, for example is not of great concern. Plus, you don’t want to micro-manage your team. What good does that do? Actually, having a corporate social media policy can do a lot of good and still provide a feeling of empowerment.

You’ve been reviewed now get Faceified

Posted on April 27, 2011 by Terri Mason

You’re probably wondering “what the heck is she talking about?”. Well, I’ve learned of a great way to consolidate all your reviews and testimonials in one location that you can promote on your website, blog, email, and more!

No matter what your industry, reviews, recommendations and testimonials can be made and found anywhere: Yelp, Craigslist, LinkedIn, your website, wherever your clients are posting their reviews. It’s a lot to keep track of let alone promote. You may have even found yourself reaching out to clients asking them to re-post a review on a certain website for you. Not anymore! You now have control over this, it’s called Faceified.
