Using a Network to Generate Interest

In order to make the most of your social networking persona and digital sites, employ these straight-forward tactics to stand out from the crowd. First, lay groundwork for both yourself and your property. Avoid spamming, or overwhelming people with information and overly zealous sales pitches.
