Here is a great article I titled Social Media Do’s And Don’t's. The article was originally written by Tommy DiPirtro. Social Media can be a great way to grow your network marketing business.
It doesn’t matter which type of Social Media you are using whether it is
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace, there are many different networks
to chose from.

No matter which type of Social Media you choose, remember your online
personality is not only part of your overall brand, it becomes an
interactive experience for you and your business

There are different combinations that you can use to make
your online presence known.

Here is a list of some Do’s and Don’ts of Social Media to help
promote yourself and cut your overall time online.

When one minute turns into one hour and BEYOND…
Have you ever checked your Facebook account and before you know it
you’ve spent the past three hours playing Bejeweled? You need to focus
on using it to build your business NOT playing games and wasting time.

You should use your time building up your profile, creating your fan page
and building relationships with other network marketers.

DON’T spend all your time doing everything that you never planned on doing,
that includes getting caught up with all the applications that just cause
distractions.

DO make connections with people in your niche, this will
help you build a STRONG social network. It’s a great
opportunity to learn from others around you, especially the heavy hitters
in your Industry. It also gives you a chance to socialize with others and
not make it look like your always trying to MAKE A DEAL or SELL
SOMETHING.

DON’T forget about the other person. There are many times when you
would make a connection and right away not take the time to get to know
that person. You do make to learn about the person you are connecting
with. This is something you can do by:

Reading their profile, it is important to learn about them.
Writing something on their wall
Take the time to make a video introduction
You don’t want to spam others wall with advertising yourself
DO remember there are people around. SO…be careful what you
write on people’s walls, pictures that you are posting and the
groups you are joining. You don’t want the wrong information
out there, it can damage your reputation.

YOU CAN make your profile private, but that really does
defeat the purpose of using Social Media.

It is extremely important to consider what you should and
shouldn’t do when using Social Media to build your network
marketing business. The main idea is to continue using your
current methods and slowly incorporate your Facebook
and Twitter tactics.

And remember…YOU control what you will share in your account,
it can make a HUGE difference in your business when promoting
yourself and spend your time wisely.
