There is no secret.
Life is about relationships
Our families
Our friends
Our co-workers
Today we build relationships online
Social media is just a clever name for building relationships online
So how do you build relationships?
It is not about a checklist of sites to be on
Remember kindergarten?
You learned how to share
Sharing builds relationships
Relationships bring us happiness
Brands are not people and cannot engage
Share the people behind your brand
Share who they are
Share what they do
Share their passion
Share their stories with other people
And they will build a relationship with the stories that create your brand
Think about your company. What can you share?
