Join the queue…
When working on your blog, set aside a few hours to queue a quantity of posts- adjust the queue to publish one post per day and voila! No need to think about your blog for another week or two, yet rest assured it will remain active.
DO IT NOW!
“I’ll do that later.” We hear it everyday… and ok, maybe sometimes we actually get around to ”it.” However, trying to remember tons of tiny tidbits tends to cause more stress. Make it easy on yourself— do it now!
Always keep a camera at your workplace.
Nothing halts documentation like a slight inconvenience. If the camera is on hand, capturing and sharing exciting events will be that much easier.
Water, Food, Shelter… and DOCUMENTATION.
No matter the nature of your business endeavor there is always documenting to be done. How else will people know what is happening with your organization?
Write it down, take a picture, make a video, record a voice memo.
Appropriation Station!
One of the awesome things about Social Media is the immense amounts of information at your disposal! No need to spend hours slaving away over one post when you can share a post you resonate with from someone else (while giving due credit, of course).
Tumblr: Reblog
Facebook: Share
Twitter: Retweet
Videos are the new photographs.
Forget photos with captions— communicate clearly and creatively in video format! Whether it’s a bio, a class list or a newsletter, see if you can brainstorm a way to transform your ideas into a video clip.
Tag it up!
Make sure to tag your post with descriptive #hashtags. The more numerous the tags, the more people you have the potential of reaching.
Don’t go on vacation when you are supposed to be maintaining your online presence— Just kidding… DO!
Having fun and taking a break from your normal pace of life will decrease stress and give fresh inspiration to your business.
Re-tweet and @ message on Twitter
This will help build a community around your organization as well as showing your involvment in your area of expertise.
Make a video tour of your space
Show your customers or potential clients the physical layout of your workplace— a video tour can be short and sweet. Shoot it on your digital camera or a smart phone for easy uploading capabilities.
