Let your social media shine this summer!
With summer beginning on June 21st, the season of socializing is finally upon us! Whether your favorite past times include BBQs, glamping or naps by the pool, anyone can break their seasonal cocoon by capturing and sharing their favorite moments of summer on social media. Take advantage of all that this fabulous season has to offer and become the social media butterfly of your dreams this summer in 4 easy steps.
4 Ways to Be a Social Media Butterfly This Summer
1. Be Humble: Have you have had a conversation that consisted of the other person continuously bragging? Avoid being “that person” on social media by not going overboard with promotional summertime posts and consider posting just a few of your favorite photos on social media sites. Overflowing your Instagram feed with pictures of margaritas and tan lines can be a sure fire way to lose followers.
2. Stay Positive: Being sociable and positive on social media sites is vital to succeeding on social media. Negative posts on social media sites are less likely to be shared by followers than posts that convey a positive or uplifting message. Consider the emotional feel of your posts before you publish them and avoid having a reputation for being a “Negative Nancy” to your followers.
3. Participate & Reciprocate: Being active and consistent on social media sites is important to having a strong online reputation. Be sure to engage with followers by liking and sharing posts that are relevant to your interests. You’ll increase your presence on social media sites and engaging with followers in a meaningful way!
4. Keep It Balanced: The best part of summer is all the fun and activities that come along with it. If you find yourself spending more time hashtagging or selecting Instagram filters, you might miss out on fun moments of “real life.” Be a balanced social media butterfly by setting aside social media breaks to post photos, respond to tweets and update Facebook friends on your small business’ newest Pinterest board!
Hashtags and retweets are only part of the fun you can have with social media this summer. Keep these helpful tips in mind and you’ll be on your way to growing your social media butterfly wings in no time!
