5. Infographics:
Always Give Value-
You should never
create an
infographic simply
to promote your
brand, products,
or services
These kind of
infographics never
gain any
engagement and
are a waste of
your resources
Infographics
should always be
created with the
intention to give
value rather than
receive it
