This episode is part 2 of 3 in a series titled You Don't Have to Be An Influencer.

Today's episode is for those of you who listened to last week’s episode and thought, sure, sure, but I know I don’t want to be an influencer, and even that I don’t have to be an influencer, so what about using social media for marketing? Many service-providing businesses, of course, do use social platforms to market their businesses.

We differentiate between content marketing and social media marketing, discuss the 4 (but really 5) cardinal rules to follow to make sure posting to social doesn't just become a new unpaid job, and discuss why you might actually just want to bail on social and focus on other things.
