Find out why 1 post a day brings followers your way!

Whether you like social media or not, chances are, as an on air personality, you will have to use it.

Whenever i train or consult for on air personalities and it comes to social media, the one tip i s.h.a.r.e is- POST AT LEAST ONE THING DAILY.

This is the simplest must-do if you want your social media popping because one of the reasons people follow or like posts is because of consistency. We want to know that when we come to your page, we see something new so give us something new daily.

When you first start with that one post a day, you can then increase your number of posts. I like to do 3 on facebook, instagram and google plus with a little more on twitter.

Branding yourself as a media personality; part 1

Hi all I am back with the OAP 101 podcasts and here is this week's podcast. Listen- To summarise, I spoke about branding yourself and why you need to, plus three things to remember. - Be yourself As an individual, you have a combination of nature and nurture that makes you different. This is what draws us to you. - Decide what you want When your name is mentioned, what do you want people to see? Much as if i were to mention Beyonce, Kaylah, even Gala (lol). What comes to your mind when these names are mentioned? In the same way you have a clear audio-visual identity for these names, you want the same for yourself. A little exercise- write down the top 5 words you want people to think of when they hear your name. - Consistently communicate this identity Now that you have your five words, it is time to communicate this to us. From your show, to your social media, to your presence, etc, let us see who you are. EXERCISE: Can you think
