“To connect with your community you have to invest in your
community, financially and emotionally. Community takes time.
Get involved. Tweet about what is fun or interesting, or
controversial in your community. Blog about places you love, or
laws that are being passed. Show that you actually care about
what is going on, and you aren't just in your little bubble.”
Heather DeDona REALTOR/Broker, GREEN @heatherdedona

The Big Picture
Your brand is made up of many puzzle pieces be that, your
website, blog, twitter account, facebook page, pinterest
account, interaction with customers or the public.
They all come together and should reflect you or your
business.

page it's not all about you.

Follow like minded people, folks in your niche and your
interests

Google Plus
Google plus is Google’s version of facebook
Allows you to form circles, be that colleagues, friends or
family.
You can also set up a Google plus profile for your brand.
Worth joining but to be honest facebook is still number one
I do adore Google hangouts though, like Skype and you can
have multiple callers and its free

Pinterest
Pinterest is the fasting growing site so far in 2012, and definitely one to join
and have fun with. It is also now the largest driver of traffic to retail sites!
Basically it allows you to set up virtual pin boards, and add articles, recipes,
links anything with a picture from the web.
It’s a fantastic way to store recipes, tips and so on to refer back to or as a
resource for your clients.
There is also an element of community you can like others pins, comment
and have a conversation about them and follow other people.
By being good and fun on pinterest, like twitter its possible to built a
following add another great dimension to your brand and in turn bring traffic
to your site.
Don’t just pin what is trending have strategy to pin what represents your
brand.

Tips
Use Google Alerts to monitor your brand or Curalate for
Pinterest
Be consistent with how your presence looks: your avatar,
online name, what images you use on blog, twitter, pinterest
and facebook
A brand is the set of expectations, memories, stories and
relationships that account for a consumer's choice.
Think about your favorite brands, and what you think about
them. How do you want people to perceive you or your
business.
Branding is not about being the biggest most popular but
about what you can offer you readers or customers
