Content DON’T’s
DON’T schedule all of your content through 3rd party apps – people can tell it’s not “real”
• DON’T delete things you don’t like – address them
• DON’T go days without posting – you have to be consistent
• DON’T be negative about your brand, your competitors, your city or anything else
• DON’T be that guy at the party – talk about things other than yourself

Content DO’s
DO post consistently and post as often as you have content
• DO put some of your personality behind the content
• DO post with a PURPOSE – you must have a strategy behind the post
• DO respond when people comment, like or share
• DO post photos and video – they are the highest engaged pieces of content
