Firstly choose your social media approach…
Facebook: with a personal and a business page for your family, colleagues, friends and potential new customers.
Instagram: A quick and convenient connection between your smart phone device with access to photo filters and editing.
Twitter: use of 140 characters or less and then add a photo or short video clip.
Linked In: Geared exclusively to business where you can meet new customers, access new employees, access vendors and keep up with industry news.
Snapchat: This app gives you the ability to take images with your smart phone, edit and add artwork or text.
