This is a new term as far as I am concerned. It implies marketing knowledge and a proved promotion method, advertising skills and a certain ability on Social Media. I have discovered that it is a trending “quality”, the Social Media “specialists” exercise from home. I wonder how they evolved from specialists to strategists? As far as you sell something valuable regarding methods of handling social media platforms, you can be considered whatever you pretend to be considered. When you show … [Read more...]
Why Are You Creating Circles to Share?
There is more than one reason to create circles. I wander what is yours? I have planned this article long time ago, but I have waited too much.
