Social Media Round-up

Friday, April 08, 2011
Posted by Molly Nelson - A recent study found that although it can be time-consuming, social media does pay off for businesses in the end, and especially for small businesses and the self-employed. But please don't just start tweeting willy-nilly -- a social media policy is a must for any business.

While you're getting into the swing of your social media, don't forget that face to face meetings are still a vital tool for fostering and sustaining your business.


Have some social media tips, tricks or tools to share? Let us know in the comments, or give us a shout on Twitter.

Kristin Oberlander
- In public affairs, my job is to serve as a link between the association, micro-businesses and the media. When I have down time, I enjoy drinking large quantities of coffee, contemplating how I will cram one more pair of (un)needed shoes into my closet and finding creative ways to remove my dog’s hair from my clothes, car, own hair and food. My biggest pet peeve is drivers who don’t understand 4-way stops.

- I help out with the NASE’s legislative advocacy, communications, and public relations. From attending hearings on the Hill to helping select the cover design for the member magazine, I’ve always got something new going on. I like practicing yoga, running through different parts of the city, and I’m an admitted etymology/grammar nerd.

- I head up the advocacy efforts for the NASE, thus I spend most of my time on Capitol Hill educating legislators on how key issues such as health care, tax, and the lagging economy affect the self-employed. When I am not running around trying to convince policymakers to pay attention to micro-business, I spend my time singing nursery rhymes to my daughter and helping my husband with his small business.
