What’s on your social media to do list?

What’s on your socialmedia to do list?

What’s on your list will depend on a few key factors:

-  How much you are using social today
-  What you want to use social for
-  if you have ideas about how social can add value.
-  A realistic assessment of how much time you can devote to your to do list

I’ll give you an example so you can consider what you need to build your own social media to do list.

If you currently find that your main tools are more traditional like email and you don’t have a Facebook account, Twitter account and only have a basic LinkedIn account, it’s difficult to think about adding new tools unless you know what you want to use them for.  

If it’s for business, you may decide you are better spending time deepening your use and knowledge of LinkedIn, than you are to add in new tools simply because you think you should.

If on the other hand, important stakeholders are asking where you are on a platform you don’t use yet, you may want to prioritise that action to finding out more about that platform.

Your time is an important factor as we are talking about social activities which take time to build.  Being clear about what you want to focus on and spending time accordingly gets you out of the time trap.

Now you’ve taken some time to think, does that change your mind about what you may place on your social media to do list?
