OUR TIPS
● Make it fun
● Engaging - ask for comments, take a poll or quiz
● Keep interaction to 3-5 minutes max (with links if they
choose to dig deeper)
● Frequent touches
● Offer rewards (recognition, gifts)
If you do the above, you will build a personal relationship with the employee
and they will treat your “touches” and content the same way they treat a
tweet, a Facebook post, a text from a colleague - it won’t be ignored!
