Social media etiquette: what not to do

Struggling to navigate the social media world? There is still a lot of confusion as to what is acceptable on social media and what is not.

Don’t be fooled into thinking you can speak your mind without it having an impact on your brand.

Follow these strategies to ensure your personal – and your brand’s – reputation remains intact online, including:

– Don’t use social media to vent your anger

– Don’t be negative or put others down

– Have an opinion and be constructive

Don’t be naïve – you are your brand whether you are a junior assistant or the CEO. No longer can you keep your personal brand and your business brand separate.
