Today, so much of our traffic as resume writers and career coaches are coming from our visibility and activity on social media aka ‘social marketing’.
But there are SO MANY OPTIONS that you probably find yourself asking:
- Where should I start?
- What’s really working?
- How much time should I be spending online?
- I’m posting, so why isn’t it working?
For the first program in this on-the-go- audio master class series, we reached out to Wendi Weiner, Esq. of The Writing Guru® to share her expertise.

- LinkedIn: prospective clients, industry members, colleagues
- Twitter: journalists, media outlets, and thought leaders
- Facebook: personal networking
- Instagram: visual storytelling.
- Organizing a schedule for yourself for posting on social: Mondays and Thursdays, for example:
- Motivational Monday (inspire your audience with a tip or quote)
- Throwback Thursday (storytelling – success story of a client).
- Social media management tools: Buffer, Hootsuite, Sprout Social.
- Blogs and media are power tools for your social media presence.
- 1-2 articles a month on your blog
