My Facebook and Twitter are decent, but I would like to increase my number of engaging posts on both. As for my website,
I haven’t updated it in over a year and it is sorely lacking content and traffic.

ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES

engagement, and critical
response on my website and all
active social media platforms.

My social media policy is as follows:

• Be respectful of followers, myself, and my brand
• Update my brand and platforms whenever possible
• Stay true to your goals and dedicated to this policy
• Be fun and inspiring, but maintain a professional air

14. CRITICAL RESPONSE PLAN
Scenario 1: Inappropriate Content Posted
Scenario 2: Copyright Conflict
• As an individual representing myself and my brand, I would remove
all inappropriate material from the internet to prevent more
damage. I would immediately apologize to all who were hurt by
my potentially dangerous or inappropriate post.
• Sometimes copyright issues arise onYouTube from use of certain video
or music.When this happens, I watch the clip that the complaint is
against. I usually am able to argue that the videos are fair use because I
am a journalist and we were able to use clips of the videos during the
shows I produce for those purposes. If not, I would either remove the
video or work out a deal with the entity that issued the complaint so
the video could remain onYouTube.
