You can connect with your community and friends while building a great reputation through online tools. Here are some ways to do so: LinkedIn:
LinkedIn is a great way to show your work in a professional manner. In case you haven't heard of it or just aren't very familiar with it, LinkedIn is more of a professional, work-oriented networking site. You can connect with others on a professional level, post your resume, share related content and much more. You can also use LinkedIn to search for jobs and post examples of your work. Blogging:
Start a blog! This is an easy way to show your creative skills. You can write about anything that you have a passion for. Recently, lifestyle blogs have become extremely popular. In these posts, bloggers will share their style, recipes, DIYs, ideas and experiences. Many bloggers will even interact with each other. Here is an example of one of my favorite blogs: www.pinkpeonies.com Twitter:
Twitter is a great tool for connecting with others. You can share relevant articles and short thoughts very easily. Even better: you can find opportunities through Twitter. Other tips:
-Be yourself: be authentic in your work. Engage with others and create interesting information that others might enjoy
-Add multimedia: This can be as simple as a picture or video link. People tend to be very visually oriented, and a picture can add that pizazz that you need.
-Appropriateness: That means no harsh language, inappropriate pictures, and definitely no online fighting!
-Keep your information current: Add in any updates or promotions as they come. Remember, social media can be used for more than just celebrity gossip and fun Instagrams. Promoting yourself through these mediums ultimately benefits you! Post by: Jamie Garvin .  |
