Welcome back to Episode #21 of The Daily Interaction podcast. Today’s topic is about creating smart interactions when using social media as a whole.
We talk about what social media is, how to engage and take advantage of this amazing opportunity at our fingertips, thanks to advancements in technology. Whether you are an old pro at social media or brand new to the idea altogether, you will find useful information in this podcast.
What I love about social media is that it removes the compelling drive for everyone out there to have their own website and blog. Even though it’s tons of fun and I highly recommend that you do go out there, and look up some domain names and get yourself a great site, I still believe that if you are not into that, you can use social media as your platform to reach the world with your message.
