Add a profile photo – people never forget a face!  Add a summary paragraph. Think of it as your professional elevator pitch.
Step 2: Ensure your connections represent your “real-world” network. Use Web mail import to see, in seconds, all the people you know who are already on LinkedIn. You can then select who you wish to invite to join your trusted network.  Upload a contacts file from Outlook, Palm, ACT!, or Mac Address  View our list of your colleagues and classmates that are already on LinkedIn.
Step 3: Leverage the power of your LinkedIn network! Post a question in the LinkedIn “Answers” area and tap into the experts you’re connected to and the entire LinkedIn network.  Look up someone’s profile before you meet with them. Learn their background and see who you know in common to get off to a fast start.  Search for Service Providers and select based on trusted recommendations from people in your network. Anonymous web searches to find providers are a thing of the past.

Welcome to Twitterville!

Disasters: "#sandiegofire  A shelter has opened up downtown for fire refugees." 
Context: "I can't believe anyone would design software like this! #microsoftoffice" 
Recall: "Buy some toilet paper. #todo"
Quote: "Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt  #quote@reply: precedes messages sent from one person to another that are public. Direct Message: private tweet from one user to another (your recipient must be a follower of yours) Retweet- or RT - is when you share the tweet of one user with all of your Twitter followers. Best practice: preface with "RT @username."  Follow Friday: A popular hashtag is #FollowFriday. You'll see every Friday posts from different “tweople” suggesting who they think you should follow.

Small minds discuss people." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt  #quote@reply: precedes messages sent from one person to another that are public. Direct Message: private tweet from one user to another (your recipient must be a follower of yours) Retweet- or RT - is when you share the tweet of one user with all of your Twitter followers. Best practice: preface with "RT @username." Follow Friday: A popular hashtag is #FollowFriday. You'll see every Friday posts from different “tweople” suggesting who they think you should follow.
  • 48. Get Startedwith Twitter Search for people and businesses that are tweeting about things related to your business. Add comments to what they’re saying (like small talk with people you’ve met today at the PIU!) Update constantly (even while you’re at CPE) about where you are and what you’re doing...increases chances of gaining followers. Post about industry news (what you’re working on) and the mundane (walking your dog). The goal = let them get to know the person behind the feed. Don’t pitch too many products and services…it will alienate (and annoy) followers. Ask questions to draw in followers and net actionable data!

  • 50. General Tips for Using Social Media Personal Branding. Be a social personality that is connected and approachable.   Get (and Give!) Feedback. Need an alternative perspective on how a website looks or the right course of action to take? Blast out a message asking for advice and you’ll receive replies from other users. This collective intelligence can be used as fodder for articles or projects. Hire People. Need a good logo designer or programmer? Send out a message asking for recommendations. This is a very quick and easy way to hire freelancers or even companies based on familiar recommendations. Direct traffic. Get traffic to your Web sites or the sites of friends. If you ask your friends to message/tweet about it, the message will spread faster and further as other active users pick it up. There is a viral nature to all types of news.
  • 51. More General Tips. . . Read News. Find links to useful sites or articles and sources of scoops and alternative news. You can also subscribe to feeds for specific Web sites/conferences, which allows you to receive and view content quickly. This is very useful for active social news participants. Take Notes. Record important ideas or concepts you want to explore further. Include links relevant to ideas you want to explore. Note taking can also be done offline via mobile applications. Make New Friends. Connect with people outside of your usual circle. Make an effort to add active users you find interesting. A social media acquaintance can be developed into a long lasting friendship. Network for benefits. Interact with other like-minded people, especially those in the same industry. It can be used to establish consistent and deeper relationships for future benefits such as testimonials or peer recommendations.
  • 52. More General Tips. . . Business Management. Consider use as a company intranet that connects employees to one another. Workers can liaise with each other when working on group projects. Particularly useful when certain workers go out often in the field. Updates could be set to private for security reasons. Set Up Meetings. Organize impromptu meetups. It’s an informal and casual way of arranging a meeting. Use it as a To Do list. Use Twitter to record down what you need to do while you are away from the computer. Mark the tweet as a favorite to file it for referencing. Another alternative is to use an Online task management service that is synced with Twitter. One example is Remember The Milk.
  • 53. Last General Tips Provide Live coverage. Provide real-time commentary which may help to spark further discussion or interest on the event as other users spread the message. Very useful for citizen journalism. Acquire Votes. Send a link to your stories you’ve submitted/written. Sometimes your followers will vote up the stories because they agree with it. This allows you to acquire more support for your efforts on other social media Web sites. Time Management and Analysis. Keep a detailed record of what you are doing every daily. Notify Your Customers. Set up a Twitter feed for the specific purpose of notifying customers when new products come in. Customers can subscribe via mobile or RSS for instant notification. Twitter can also be used to provide mini-updates for one-on-one clients.
  • 54. Bonus Tip: Fight the Addiction Constant connectivity can be addictive! Networking and network building is entertaining, if not fun. Access to real-time information is valuable, if not amazing. Time spent on social networking must be integrated and balanced. Have a plan and be consistent. Mobile and automated applications should help you maximize your time investment. Profiles and accounts should provide you efficient access to contacts, resources, referrals and job opportunities.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet new contacts and catch-up with old ones, all while sitting comfortably in your own home or office. You have the benefits of networking without awkwardly balancing cocktail napkins and messy appetizers.” - Chris Jenkins, Ohio Society of CPAs

  2. With a profile and connections that truly represents you and your “real-world” network, you’re all set to get the most out of LinkedIn.
  3. (Try Google Alert, so that every time your name comes up, you’re notified.)Once you have created your online profile, at whatever site you’ve chosen, “you’ve just scratched the surface,” she said. “You want to find groups — alumni, former employees of your last jobs, trade groups.”Join the groups, then wait and observe the discussions. When you feel you have something thoughtful to say, chime in with your opinion, Ms. Fielding said. Start branding yourself as someone insightful in that particular area, she said, so “when people are thinking about filling a job, they think of you.”
  4. Just like SCACPA and civic involvement, speaking engagements and published articles are important tools to develop relationships and build networks, Every day, more and more people join and become devoted users of social networks. Every day, those active users spends hours online—viewing profiles, looking for information, communicating with other community members, and creating their own unique form of media. Every day that you’re not engaging with your target audience
