Social Sable

Blog, Technology / tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , / / by

I enjoy social media for work. Building brands social media accounts is always enjoyable for me. I like talking on the internets (you may have noticed this!).

I am bloody awful at pushing my own social media and blogs social accounts though. Its just not something I am interested in doing during blog time. I am however making an effort this month to be seen somewhere by people other than bloggers. So heres some of the social medias I share too.

I am honestly only active on Twitter and sometimes Flickr. But I do check them often so please do say hello if you frequent any of the below networks.

Pinterest for Small Businesses

Blog, Tech, Technology / tagged , , , , , , / / by

One of the 5 Skillshare courses I took for this months to-do list was Pinterest for Small Business by Lisa Rusczyk.

I keep going back to Pinterest, but still have not gotten my teeth into yet, so a course was required to try and get up to speed. The course was pretty good. I do not believe it was planned, but she ended up showing some examples of what not to do on Pinterest and explained why. Its helpful all the same. Shes good over the mic and her explanations are clear.

The project for the course was to create and link to a pin, that was tall, had a picture and some text. Not quite what she had in mind, but I reworked the old Blue Moon Theatre poster, and pinned that.

I would recommend Lisa Rusczyk’s Skillshare Course.

I am a great believer that some people,  sites,  blogs and brands are better suited to a select few social media’s instead of all of them.

Personally I am chatty so Twitter suits me.  I am also about the visual so Ello and Instagram suit me.

I have little to nothing to offer on Pinterest,  G+ or Facebook. That said despite me never visiting G+ and rarely browsing Pinterest I still get clicks from both to my blog.

This has encouraged me to put up my social links and frequent the big 5 on a more personal basis and see if anything grows on any of the platforms. 

You can find me on social media by clicking the little icons to the upper right of this post.  – – >
