A Social Manifesto

Social Manifesto

Simplicity. How many of your business strategies for 2013 can be described in simplicity? Let me be clear, simplicity is not easy. It is terribly difficult. It takes unbelievable skill much like social media marketing to the chagrin of an entire industry that tries to tell you the latest “7 steps to social media”. Social media management is work that demands the smartest, hardest working and imaginative people on the planet. With that said, I am attempting (after hours upon hours of reflection and thought) to create my manifesto for Social Media Management.

I would love your feedback.

The Social Manifesto:

Let your brand LIVE. Be Real. Be Social. Talk about what you are actually passionate about. Listen to what people actually care about. Listen. Then listen again. If you don’t like the conversation, change it. Trust your opinion. Do the hard work. Think before you share. Share what you think. Discover real people. Build lasting relationships. Stop the selling. Start the giving. Don’t wait. Say it now. Be part of the conversation. Have a point of view. Get straight to the point. Be fascinating by being authentic. Share something you have learned. Thank someone today for teaching. Start doing what you are passionate about. Open your mind to something new. Ask someone what they care about. Share your passion. Start a movement. Social is about the people you meet and what you create together. So, create something. Live a social life.
