Social Media Etiquette
The Etiquette: Ensure your profile is complete – not very
helpful if your customers can’t find vital statistics such as company description, contact information and location.
You can post several times a day, but make sure they’re spaced out
Use hashtags wisely; you should not have 10 hashtags for a Facebook post
Respond to all comments – good or bad Content Division:
• 80% entertain and inform• 20% sell
Respond to Facebook Messages in a timely manner to keep your response rate high
Don’t delete negative comments – address them as honestly as possible and provide a solution.
Limit your product pitches to your own Facebook page; use other pages to engage in comments and witty conversation

Why Use Facebook?• To engage with your fans• Post engaging and entertaining
content to attract potential followers
The Etiquette: Use appropriate hashtags for your brand;
golden number: 11 hashtags
Use industry relevant hashtags – think about how people might search for your content topic
Always give credit to original poster when reposting
Don’t use hashtags such as #LikesforLikes – it’s unprofessional
Post consistently – to stay in your audience’s eye
Use the bio link to generate traffic – when you have a new product, blog post or landing page, add the link in the bio and create posts with the link as your call-to-action

Why Use Instagram?• To share a story• Pick a unique but relevant theme
and create your own high quality photos
The Etiquette: Respond to all comments as quickly as
possible
Be visual; tweets that feature images earn 150% more retweets and lead to 18% more clicks
Interact with your audience; see a question on Twitter that your brand can answer? Send a friendly reply!
Earn followers with share-worthy content, don’t beg followers to retweet
Build connections – send out thank you tweets to those who mention or retweet you.
Don’t follow everyone, who follows you – beware of spammers
