Social Media & how to use it! by Melissa E Earle

Social Media is tricky, especially if it sucks up all your time. Learning how to use it and knowing whats out there and how it can work for you, well this is an introduction to some of the things I use.
If you are a Seasoned Social Media nerd, this is probably not for you. This is for the one who is still trying to figure this all out, and might not even know that all of this exists. Once you see these sites, please go browse them, watch other tutorials and join in the fun. Its not fun if you just watch, but way more enjoyable if you get invovled and not just watch.

I get asked all the time by friends and clients what am I doing online and why, so I decided this video should help start people off on the right direction to CONNECT with mee and other things that interest them.

In this video, I show there are a couple of Social Media Sites in this video, that when used with the right amount of time and with the right friends/users, it can make up for a really great resource. For business and for personal uses. I am a photographer, so I try to see how social media can work for mee, keeping mee in contact with my friends, with my clients and also with other photographer, or business professionals, especially people that know more than mee, that I can learn from.
I also try to keep in mind when using Social Media, that its a way to start a conversation, its all about relationship and not just taking, but giving and commenting.
