A1/4: Social Media is perfect for introverts… approaching someone in person may be intimidating for some of us… social takes that pressure off. #TwitterSmarter
— Maria Dykstra (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A1: Social media has been an amazing way for me to connect and reach more people in less time than the old school way of just a website and email list. Social media gets you to the masses. It's awesome! #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/j0tjQ3zu1A
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018

— Joana Rita Sousa ? ?? (@JoanaRSSousa) September 20, 2018
A1.
– Sharing content on social media helps to amplify my own brand & sets me up as a 'thought leader' in a certain subject.– Curating other people's content provides a source of useful information for my followers so they see me as their 'go to' expert.#TwitterSmarter
— Virtuoso Assistant #MarketEdLive ? ? (@VirtuosoAssist) September 20, 2018

Q2: What are your tips on creating an easy-to-follow content strategy to help you share compelling content? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/QJNIfIGBH4
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A2/1: Have a vision in mind. Define your end goals – are you building an online presence, trying to get speaking gigs, selling products? EACH piece of content should align with your goal #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A2/2: Have a written plan <goals + topics + platforms + frequency + content formats>. Be prepared to change it based on results. #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A2/3: Automation is key, but go beyond auto-scheduling tools. If you sound like a robot, you will be followed by robots 🤖 <NOT real people > #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A2: You have to have a plan and you have to be consistent. You do those two things and you'll be set. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/MKmV1LgEw7
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A2 Don't obsess over influence. If you genuinely interact with people — especially on Twitter chats — your influence will come. If you play nice, it'll be good. #TwitterSmarter
— Jim Katzaman – Get Debt-Free One Family at a Time (@JKatzaman) September 20, 2018
A2: Seek out what your audience WANTS to know/learn/hear and provide that content as it pertains to your brand and your services/products. If you're interacting authentically the content and strategy should almost provide themselves #TwitterSmarter
— Meg O'Hara (@megoh731) September 20, 2018
A2. Define your goals. Identify your Audience. Curate Content Accordingly. Be Consistent. Engage. Measure. Tweek and Repeat. #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/jj4BuNSIUE
— Melissa A.? (@mz_rocko) September 20, 2018
A2: The first thing I think of when I hear/read "easy-to-follow" is SHORT. Something that is short, fast, and keeps you looking and engaged. Packing in as much power and value into short and simple content is the ? #TwitterSmarter
— kununu US (@kununu_US) September 20, 2018
A2. Include the most important metric/s – justify your content plan and show that it works with numbers ? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/NZLn4GEjrB
— Lisa ???? I like big gifs & I cannot lie (@lisaboylesmedia) September 20, 2018
https://twitter.com/JoanaRSSousa/status/1042828253608730625
A2: Make sure you're sharing content your target audience is going to find valuable.
They'll be more likely to find you, follow you, and engage with your content this way. #TwitterSmarter
— Express Writers | Your Content Writing Partner (@ExpWriters) September 20, 2018
A2.
– To be honest I don't stick to a schedule for creating content; I'd rather post 1 piece of truly useful content that might rank highly than post something sub-standard just for the sake of it.– Always stick to your niche specialism & don't digress. #TwitterSmarter
— Virtuoso Assistant #MarketEdLive ? ? (@VirtuosoAssist) September 20, 2018
A2
I follow this steps almost all the times:
1. Audience
2. SMART Goals and milestones
3. Channels (Publishing and Distribution)
4. Content format
5. Plan, workflow and data collect
6. Tools and resources#TwitterSmarter https://t.co/zhmZLSWFHI— Alberto Gómez (@alberMoire) September 20, 2018
A2:
-Be Informative
-Be entertaining
-Be creativeDo what works for you and what works for others
Don't force yourself to do what doesn't work#TwitterSmarter— Justin Bienvenue, #ModernDayPoe (@JustinBienvenue) September 20, 2018
Q3: Curated vs Created content – what’s the most important difference to keep in mind? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/eY7hCzxRF4
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A3/1: Curation = expressing yourself via someone else’s content <Not to be confused with blanket reposting and retweeting>. Curation = expressing via your own writing. #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A3/2: Both Curation and Creation take thought, time, perspective… Both help establish your distinct point of view. Both require your commentary #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A3/3: If you are just starting and still unsure of your own voice => Curation is the way to go. Once you get a feel for your message => Creation is your friend #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A3: Curated is taking other people's content and sharing them in your social media. I do this a lot. Rather than reinventing the wheel, I'll share great, relevant content for my community. Created is when I'll share my thoughts and two cents. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/ShZQfJrWPO
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A3: Curated you don't have to create, but you have to check it meets your standards. #TwitterSmarter
— Tim Lewis @ Stoneham Press (@StonehamPress) September 20, 2018
A3: I like created because I have full control of the outcome #TwitterSmarter
— Bernie Fussenegger ?✌️the7️⃣ (@B2the7) September 20, 2018
A3: Are you promoting your expertise as a thought leader with ONLY curated content? Probably not. The mix should be healthy and always lean on your expertise and offerings but not overtly. Don't be a product pushing goon- interact and converse! #TwitterSmarter
— Meg O'Hara (@megoh731) September 20, 2018
A3: Curated content is content you didn't create. You can share valuable work from other sources whenever you want.
I think having a balance of created and curated content is important. #TwitterSmarter
— Express Writers | Your Content Writing Partner (@ExpWriters) September 20, 2018
a3 yes, check all the links, the content so you don't have your brand associate to values / content that doesn't fit you #twittersmarter
— Joana Rita Sousa ? ?? (@JoanaRSSousa) September 20, 2018
A3 Curated content is passing along info from others. Created content is yours. If you're prolific — don't have a life — you can create a stash of created content to curate on an evergreen tree. #TwitterSmarter
— Jim Katzaman – Get Debt-Free One Family at a Time (@JKatzaman) September 20, 2018
A3. There has to be original thought in curated content, or we’ll all be posting the same 5 articles 😉 fresh takes on current subjects are great. #twittersmarter
— Isobel Burns (@TrainingSMM) September 20, 2018
A3: Personally I view created as more valuable and can generate more engagement because it is something new! Curated is convienant but there is a good chance that people have already seen it, which would decrease the value of it. #twittersmarter
— kununu US (@kununu_US) September 20, 2018
A3: Curating i.e. using others content, helps share knowledge to your followers from other people that they may not have otherwise.
However, people are also looking for YOUR created content; they follow you to find out what YOU have to say, as well!#TwitterSmarter— Mark Carruthers (@MarkC_Avgi) September 20, 2018
A3. It's good to use Curate Content, but I think Creating your Own content is key. Shows your knowledge, perspective and brings your value to the table. It's hard sometimes to find time or the confidence but you should go for it! Research, Practice, Measure. #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/QtLZkvOrqS
— Melissa A.? (@mz_rocko) September 20, 2018
A3: When using #CuratedContent be sure to read anything you are sharing and add your own original thought or comment. #twittersmarter
— Laura Denny (@ldcreativemedia) September 20, 2018
A3: Curated is almost like being a reporter of facts or a librarian gathering collections of information. Whereas Created is original content which may be inspired by or reference curated info. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/hZ421KiW2l
— Brewing Media (@BrewingMedia) September 20, 2018
Q4: What is the value of curated content for your online influence-building journey? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/039A1X67KX
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A4/1: Curation establishes your point of view. It allows you to experiment with different messages in a low-cost/low-risk way.#TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A4/2: Curation is also a way to build connections. You help other influencers by sharing their content. They will notice that #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A4/3: My Curation Formula:
– Find people/sources you respect and trust
– Choose posts aligned with your vision
– Share them with your followers
❗Do not forget to reply/like/comment on the post❗#TwitterSmarter— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A4: Curated content is your voice. It's how you get seen as an industry leader. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/0yWjpVlGMF
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A4. The key is balance. Remember, it’s not all about you! #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/K47ydjhUdj
— Lisa ???? I like big gifs & I cannot lie (@lisaboylesmedia) September 20, 2018
A4: You get some credit from people whose posts you share and gain credit for sharing info to audience. #twittersmarter
— Tim Lewis @ Stoneham Press (@StonehamPress) September 20, 2018
a4 well, it helps me build reputation. also, it's a way to give value to other people's content (like partners, speacialists…) #twittersmarter
— Joana Rita Sousa ? ?? (@JoanaRSSousa) September 20, 2018
A4: If you're trying to go this route, it can help you seem like an expert and help build you up to be a thought leader. #TwitterSmarter
— Katie Orong (@ncs_katie) September 20, 2018
A4. If you’re becoming a thought leader you showcase valuable content for your audience. Huge value to become the ‘go to’ source for all they need to know #twittersmarter
— Isobel Burns (@TrainingSMM) September 20, 2018
A4. It shows your willingness to learn & share the wealth. It also allows you to expand your digital reach/network. Great opportunity to attach your perspective and/or promote a vendor/service/partner that deserves recognition. #TwitterSmarter
— Melissa A.? (@mz_rocko) September 20, 2018
A4.
– Sharing other people's content (curated) provides your followers with a source of valuable information they want to tap into.– It sets you up as a thought leader in your niche.
– Hopefully sharing content might lead to reciprocation from an influencer.#TwitterSmarter
— Virtuoso Assistant #MarketEdLive ? ? (@VirtuosoAssist) September 20, 2018
A4: Curating content of others expands what you can offer your followers AND make you friends with those whose articles you share…they may reciprocate, thus expanding your audience. #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/dnGXaF6knk
— Mark Carruthers (@MarkC_Avgi) September 20, 2018
A4: I like it as a way to build community and share and appreciate content of value. In Social Media, it's not competition, it's collaboration #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/aHniSV8Wi0
— Jim Fuhs #DealcastersLive #SMWL23 (@FuhsionMktg) September 20, 2018
A4: Passing on useful information to your audience (whether you created it or not) is an act of service that helps everyone.#TwitterSmarter https://t.co/qEDglNfIeH

Q6: What are your tips for consistently sharing high-quality curated content? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/ld7YMGp6Ql
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A6/1: Listen BEFORE you talk. Understand what people really care about. Answer their top questions. #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A6/2: Do not create <or share> content for the sake of creating <or sharing>.
Quality over Quantity. And CONSISTENCY above all.
Start slow. Learn what works. Do more of it. #TwitterSmarter— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A6/3: Automate, but do it thoughtfully #TwitterSmarter
— TreStrategy🔥 (@TreDigital) September 20, 2018
A6: Know what your audience wants. Share what they crave. Did you know I've been curating Twitter marketing content on the #TwitterSmarter hashtag every day for over 5 years? 😆 https://t.co/13slRRgR19
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A6: Be diligent in the checking of your sources and always comment on what you share if possible. #TwitterSmarter
— Meg O'Hara (@megoh731) September 20, 2018
A6: Set notifications to share other people's content. But it needs curation so automation can be dangerous #twittersmarter
— Tim Lewis @ Stoneham Press (@StonehamPress) September 20, 2018
A6….Consistent…hmmmm…that's the rub isn't it? As a business, we are so often focused on clients and their social/content/everything that we neglect our own. #askmehowIknow @epodcaster #guilty #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/wOaagdAOU6
— Brewing Media (@BrewingMedia) September 20, 2018
A6 Keep your audience in mind when sharing content. You want to address their wants, needs, budgets and pain points. Address those, and your content will resonate — building your cred in the process. #TwitterSmarter
— Jim Katzaman – Get Debt-Free One Family at a Time (@JKatzaman) September 20, 2018
A6: Make sure you are posting from/talking about qualified sources! WSJ, NYT, etc. have some good pieces, but so do people on social! Just make sure the website appears professional and is up to date! #TwitterSmarter

A6: Have a plan and be consistent, i.e. share curated content on the same day and time of the week by using scheduling #TwitterSmarter

https://twitter.com/PeculiarBeastie/status/1042832961241006086
A6: Don’t think #automation makes you less authentic. Use a third party platform to schedule #content so your activity is consistent, just make sure to engage in real time!! #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/BnWuxvLhEL
— Katelyn Brower (@KatelynBrower_) September 20, 2018
A6: I find it helpful to read content saved in @feedly at the beginning of each week. Then, schedule out shares for anything that's of interest to our audience. #TwitterSmarter
— Express Writers | Your Content Writing Partner (@ExpWriters) September 20, 2018
A6: know what you are talking / tweeting about. Readers and/or clients knwo too well when you spam them or pretend something you are not. do your research before you share something from another account. there is too much stuff out there without a source #twittersmarter
— Barbara Schmidt (@BarbFFm) September 20, 2018
A6.
– I save influencers into Twitter Lists so it's easy to find their latest content & share.

– I'm always open to reading from new sources & I use hashtags to search for stuff#TwitterSmarter— Virtuoso Assistant #MarketEdLive ? ? (@VirtuosoAssist) September 20, 2018
A6: I think it was already said:
Be "picky" about who your follow, what you read & what you share. You will become known to have quality content & the Social Media network will point people your way! You are your own "Quality Control" #TwitterSmarter https://t.co/Dw1E8hiQN5— Mark Carruthers (@MarkC_Avgi) September 20, 2018

Micro-content mindset, in other words write and post every day. Both own content and curated content. I started this 2 months ago. My inspiration:

Q8: What are the most important skills to build yourself up as an influencer on social media? #TwitterSmarter pic.twitter.com/5P5cauCcoR
— Madalyn Sklar (@MadalynSklar) September 20, 2018
A8/1: Patience: Finding your voice online is hard. You may feel that you are talking to yourself <especially, at the beginning>. You WILL need thick skin. #TwitterSmarter

A8/2: Networking: Influence building = relationship building. Remember to ask, listen, respond….do not just broadcast #TwitterSmarter

A8/3: Time-Management: Social Media can be a huge time suck. Create a structure around all critical activities <planning, organizing, executing> and stick to it. #TwitterSmarter

A8: Share your genuine voice and brand, don't play the follow/unfollow game, seek to provide value, don't call yourself an influencer until you ARE an influencer (which may mean never calling yourself one). #TwitterSmarter
