How to be Relevant Social Media Expert

Join Marco Giunta and Chris Kieff how to become a Social media Expert 

To become an "expert" in your respective field, use social media in the following ways:

1:  Create a positive brand image  - Make sure that you are seen as somebody who is knowledgeable and well-informed.  Develop your personal brand by establishing a reputation in your niche – always being sure to present yourself in a way that ensures that you will be perceived by people in the right way.

2:  Join various social networks – Create your own profile page on all networking sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc., or any networking site that is relevant to your industry or niche.  Be sure to regularly post content on these sites.

3:  Participate in online forums and discussions – You can answer questions posted by other users, spread information about your work, as well as discuss topics associated with your field. 

4:  Create your own blog and website – Blogging is one of the simplest ways to share information on things you want to talk about.  By posting quality content on your blog, you can not only demonstrate your knowledge, but also have rightful ownership over it.

5:  Maintain and grow your network – Again, sites like Facebook and LinkedIn are excellent places to connect with people working in your area of expertise.
