Who we choose to follow is also a reflection on your brand. A professional brand or individual who is following a playboy bunny would be an example of confusing you professional and personal life on-line. @ Chris, Good point you make Chris.

The biggest mistake I made on Twitter is following so many people without really knowing how to use it. I found that people have gotten bored and left. Does anyone know how to remove the bot on my twitter updates that say get 400 + followers per day. People think I am spamming but I am not the one posting this update. Excellent tips.

It's always easy to simplify the process in theory. In practice you might still come across some brand building road blocks. Feel free to email me if you have any questions as you build your brand in the social media. @ Malcolm, Glad it was useful to you. It’s always easy to simplify the process in theory.

Often the lack of a 'strategy' stops organisations from consciously considering their approach to brand. As a starting point to just even sit down and think about the basics of professional presentation can make such a difference. We all have a brand, the main difference is between those brands that consioscly consider their actions, and those that don't. @ Liz, That strategy word can be so confronting, especially to small/medium sized businesses without sophisticated marketing knowledge.

The flip side is that in an medium with so many people presenting themselves poorly, the brands that do manage their image well will really stand-out. @ Ramon, Couldn’t agree more.

Companies need a strategy for their Social Media use and too many people just dive in without thinking it through. You can have fun with social media, but you do have to keep it professional since everything you say and do is a direct reflection on your brand. Hi Dave,
