THE MINDSET OF THE BUSINESS OWNER:
1. I don’t have time for all this social media but many friends and business colleagues advise me that I need to keep up with the times or I will be left behind.
2. I am TOO busy! When will I have time to do this?3. It’s TOO technical! How will I learn quickly?4. Who can I hire to do this for me?

WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA?
The "social" part: refers to interacting with other people by sharing information with them and receiving information from them.
The "media" part: refers to an instrument of communication, like the internet (while TV, radio, and newspapers are examples of more traditional forms of media).
Okay, so from these two separate terms, we can pull a basic definition together:
Social media are web-based communication tools that enable people to interact with each other by both sharing and consuming information.
Try to think of social media like fruit. Apples, bananas, oranges, grapes, berries, melons and pineapples are all part of the broader fruit category the same way that social networking, social news, social bookmarking, wikis, blogs and private web messaging are part of the broader social media category.
What's the Difference Between Social Media and Social Networking?
A lot of people use the terms social media and social networking interchangeably as if
they mean the exact same thing. Although the difference is subtle, they're not the same.
Social networking is really a subcategory of social media.
The easiest way to understand the difference between social media and social networking
is by thinking about the terms "media" and "networking" separately.
Media refers to the information you're actually sharing–whether it's a link to an article,
a video, an animated GIF, a PDF document, a simple status update or anything else.
Networking, on the other hand, has to do with who your audience is and the
relationships you have with them. Your network can include people like friends,
relatives, colleagues, anyone from your past, current customers, mentors and even
complete strangers.

looks of the #flooring. Come

HOW TO USE INSTAGRAM FOR BUILDING YOUR BUSINESS (visual):
https://youtu.be/vk2qjR8Afrohttps://youtu.be/CFlvMeWp0dUhttps://youtu.be/VhfX21jz17c
EXAMPLE:
Associate a CAT with FLOORING.
Take advantage of the #catsofinstagram popular hashtag by having a cat pose on top of your furniture or flooring sample.
Then, come up with an Instagram post linked to your Twitter and Facebook accounts with a 140-character message, such as:
Arizona cat with fast-moving spiraling tail admires @AZDiscountFlooring #catsofinstagram #cat #tiles #business #Phoenix #Arizona
What are your chances of being seen among so many #cat posts?
If you post a photo every day or every other day with the #cat hashtag, the chances are high that you will get new followers because there are many #cat followers.
4. Why multiply your presence with a shortened URL and an EMBED code?
To encourage your colleagues and friends to spread the word quickly and efficiently with or without a message. Customizing a URL into something memorable shows how considerate you are.
To ask your friends if you can include your special URL (Uniform Resource Locator) or landing page within their website, blog, or social media medium. For example, the same URL’s contents can be changed at any given time and you don’t have to inform your friends about it because the revisions will happen automatically.
EXAMPLE:
ORIGINAL URL:
EMBED CODE:
THE URL TO BE SHORTENED:https://youtu.be/NmNEH32m1-g
1. Copy and paste URL here
2. Customize memorable shortened link
3. Make your tiny URL!
Your new shortened link can now be used for your SMS, tweets, Facebook posts, etc. There can be public or private analytics available.
http://tinyurl.com
OTHER SHORTENED LINK CREATORS:
http://bit.lyhttp://goo.gl
REMINDER: After typing any URL into a browser, it should default into a secure https://
5. TIME MANAGEMENT – Use your phone, tablet, and laptop on the road! Examples: Lenovo
thinkpad yoga (laptop), MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone 7, google voice, google calendar, trello,
slack, google drive, mailchimp, and loud basstard
