Social media courses – what’s more to learn?

Social media courses
Social media courses, whether you like to believe it or not, is more than just these two platforms – and even if they are the biggest around, the question begging to be asked is, are you doing it right?
Social media courses provide perspective on how involved you want to get – and leading edge education on how to go at it for maximum benefit. For instance, do you follow by industry or by location or both? Is it all just a numbers game? Should you go after quality or quantity? Can you have the best of both worlds?
Facebook – a Business Page or a Personal Profile? Or Both?
Is there a difference? A personal profile allows you to be more than a brand that they could like or ignore. People are on facebook to get personally connected or be entertained. And unless they have limitless time on their hands, they’re rarely inclined to spend time browsing your page much less your products if you do not start getting creative.
Twitterholics are Winnerholics
Anyone heard of someone’s business closing down because they were hooked on Twitter?
The truth is more often than not, the exact opposite.
Are you one to take note of how many following/followers you have the last time you logged out? Your followers seems to have decreased but for the life of you, you can’t exactly determine who has unfollowed you and why. Clear truth is some people just follow on the hopes that you follow them back and once you do, they unfollow you tomorrow or the next day.
Social media courses and training teach you how involved it can be. The little tricks and apps that will tell you who have unfollowed you, what lists you can make – be it for personal interaction or just a mention on the #FF (follow friday) – even how to easily automate your tweets for when you need to enjoy time away from the computer.
As for why you were unfollowed, well, we all have our quirks. Don’t lose sleep over it, focus on the positives!
Why Bother to Do It Right?
It’ll be a whole lot more fun knowing its done right. John Wooden quoted it perfectly – if you don’t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?
