Discussions on brand ‘newsroom’ and social media teams. These last two talks are giving me some ideas that could be helpful for my organization.

@DaveMurr of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan discussing involving internal employees as advocates and subject matter experts for your organization. Something we plan to do @NewsfromJEA! #RaganDisney

Once in a while I blast through my IG Stories. I thumb tap as fast as I can to clear my queue, but I take note of what makes me stop and reverse. What made me take a moment to pay attention? Was it the image, text, topic? These are learnings to add to your content. #ragandisney

Social media analytics. “Provide insights vs. produce reports.” 100% agree. #RaganEvents

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

Great social media advice: “Stop focusing on gaining. Focus on giving.” #RaganEvents

TikTok even has a search widget app you can add to the home screen of your phone. #RaganEvent

40% of Gen Z is using TikTok and Instagram as their go-to search engine vs. Google. #RaganEvents

We have been mad scientisting ChatGPT and you can provide it URLs to pull from. It is not 100%. It includes content from a blog/article, but also provides content that is not included. #RaganEvents

Homer: When I was a boy I wanted a catcher's mitt, but my dad wouldn't get it for me. So I held my breath until I passed out and banged my head on the table. Doctor thought I might have brain damage.

Bart: Dad, what’s the point of this story?

Homer: I like stories. #RaganEvents

@EM203sshanks Hi Simone. Apologies for the late reply. I'm not on Twitter too much these days. Feel free to hit me up on LinkedIn if you still would like thoughts on social media + mental health. Thanks! https://t.co/d9deApP9xa

Today’s #socialmediatip - if recent events have shown us anything, it’s to never rely on any one channel to be your go to content hub. It amazes me how many biz/orgs still invest all their content capital into a channel they Do not own and that can change the rules at anytime.

Sorry I’ve been MIA. Been recuperating mentally from running my first marathon a few weeks ago. Social media tip for today? Don’t try tweeting while running a marathon 🤓 #socialmedia #socialmediatip

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

Managing B2B #socialmedia? You have the advantage of being able to talk about yourself more so than if you were B2C. Your audience may be smaller, but they are deeply interested in your expertise and products/services you offer. Showcase yourself. #socialmediatips

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

Engagement is important. It will become even more so when you are able to put context behind those likes, shares, etc. Aligning your #socialmediastrategy with the goals of your company/organization will do just that. Man, it’s early… 🤓 #socialmediatips

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

If your social channels are just a gateway to your content, they are not being used to their full potential. #socialmedia #socialmediatips

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

Questions for you. Do #influencers have a space in the #CreatorEconomy? Are they different or the same? Can one become the other? I feel creators and influencers are vastly different, but welcome your thoughts. #socialmedia

Are you to looking to identify the best times/days to post to your social channels? This report from @HubSpot provides a great starting point. Breaks down channels, providing insight on when you should and shouldn’t publish. https://t.co/swEmmkTk7o #socialmedia #socialmediatip

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

Be a source of helpful information and just a source of your own information. #socialmedia #socialmediatips

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

@NickStoneTweets Very true. I feel the responsibility lies with both the social media professional and the one(s) they report to. Education on best practices must be constant while openness of what is being recommended must remain. Not always easy, but both can make it work.

[David Murray @DaveMurr]

If you are posting the same thing at the same time across all your social channels, why would anyone follow you? Give people a reason. Create unique value for the channels you are on. #socialmedia #socialmediatip
