We all use it, most of us every day. We see new platforms being created, constantly being updated to have the newest and best features. So what does Social Media have to do with your business?
We’re going to dip our toes into this expansive virtual world and give you a peek at how Social Media can help you! Look at it as an opportunity to start conversations, or keep conversations going regarding exciting things in your practice. Think of it as sharing, not selling.

Here are a few to start with:
If a Facebook fan or Instagram follower is willing to Comment, Share, or Repost your post, they’re willing to shout to the world that this post means something to them. Think of it like a fishing net, and each time we cast that net further we’re able to pull in more fish. When our followers love our content and they’re willing to engage, they’ve just helped us cast that net even further. If you’ve heard the phrase ‘this speaks to me’ then you already know what the goal is. You have to find what moves your audience and motivates them to engage positively with you, thereby increasing your organic reach.
Remember, as you create and execute your social media strategy it will always be fluid and changing. Some ideas will work and others will fail. The key is to stay in the laboratory and keep cooking up recipes for social media success.
