It’s NOT a numbers game


     So stop worrying about
     how many likes, followers,
     connections, subscribers
     and +1s you have right
     now.
It may not a numbers game but...

Final Thoughts
•   Social Media requires a lot of work to
    be effective.
•   Content is still king; especially
    pictures and videos
•   Being social isn’t always about you,
    think value & “share-ability”
•   You don’t have to use every social
    media site
•   Focus on quality, frequency and
    engagement
                                             www.sociallyactive.ca
