Use friendly colours.
Include images of real people.
Feature yourself and include a personal message.

Twitter.
Create a Facebook page and group
Create a Facebook page and a group to drive traffic to your landing
page. All your social media activities should have two main goals: to
raise awareness and drive visitors to your landing page.
When creating your page, pick your best keyword and use it in the URL of your
Facebook page to benefit from organic search. Use the URL of your landing page in
the description of the Facebook posts to drive more traffic. Install smart tabs to your
page that lead to your landing page. Do you see where I’m going with this? They
should all cross-promote each other. Schedule your posts for the next 30 days.
Believe me, you will not have time for a single Facebook post once you’ve started.
Categorise your contacts:
• Friends and family
