5 Tips for Aspiring Social Media Marketers


Here's the article from Mashable.com and below is my quick take on it applying it locally.

1. Join Social Media Meet-up and Networks - to get this started follow well known bloggers on Twitter and Facebook, introduce yourself, sometime they are very willing to help new bloggers or online marketers out

2. Make Relationships Not Pitches - this is really the essence of social media marketing, relationships and nurturing these relationships. This would have a tendency to open up opportunities for people

3. Stay Informed of Tools, Trends, and News - research, everything is already available on the internet

4. Find an Online Balance Between Personal and Professional - a little tricky especially for your Facebook, blogs and Twitter accounts can be separated easily though

5. Make Your Resume Standout - especially if you're looking for freelance jobs, all your blogs and web presence should really be good and stands out. This is what I need to work on, I have to push traffic to my site so please visit regularly and often.
