things you are doing for your 
clients – but it does not 
happen on its own!
How can we find that via social? 
• BY DISPLAYING YOUR PERSONALITY – YOU BRING YOUR 
BRAND TO LIFE 
• READING CLIENT FEEDBACK 
• BY CELEBRATING YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS! 
• BY CREATING YOUR OWN CONTENT 
• FIND YOUR BRAND ADVOCATES AND BRING THEM TO LIFE 
• RESOLVE MISPERCEPTIONS THROUGH EDUCATION 
• HONE IN ON SPECIAL AREAS 
• SHARE EVENTS AND OTHER LOCAL NEWS STORIES 
• SOLVE PROBLEMS (DREAMING, INITIATING, SHOPPING, 
NEGOTIATING, TRANSACTING, OWNING)
