Interact more than you automate. Have more @’s than you have articles. Know what’s going on offline. It shouldn’t be just promotion. 70/20/10 (70% of your time should be about people, 20% is about creating content, 10% are things you can ask)
Let the community curate content. Creation is not great than curation. You don’t have to be the expert. Highlight your digital evangelists. Share your influence.
Offline enhances online and vice versa. What are we doing online that will enhance the offline. Measure the stories you have offline because what you are doing online. Have a community view. Have a global view. Don’t just invite people to the offline
Choose Clarity over Cleverness. Be brief. Be specific. Lists, Quotes, Pictures. Felt Need. What problem are you solving.
Repeat Yourself. Know the purpose of each network or platform. Retitle and Reuse. Group similar posts together.
