Managing the ‘Noise’
Consider using a 3rd party tool to ‘manage’ social media
like Hootsuite
‘Listen’ for keywords that apply to your
expertise & respond
Organise people you follow on Twitter &
Facebook contact into lists
‘Don’t’ get sucked in or it will consume all your time. Set plans & diarise rigidly
Don’t expect to read every tweet & status
update – its impossible
