Best of Mentoring: Social Media Platforms with Jennifer Osbon

Choosing Social Platforms

Jennifer Osbon’s mentoring series goes in depth with digital marketing, especially social media marketing. How does it work, what should you do, what should you not do? She and Fran talked about the growth and development of connective technologies, how to get started with social media, and building a social media strategy.

In this session, Jennifer talks about how to choose the right platform(s) for your business to be on. There are more social media platforms than it’s possible to be active on, so you have to choose. The key, she says, is identifying the networks that are contextually relevant to your audience. When you have the right message at the right time in the right place, you’re doing social media right.
