LIFESTYLE impact the number of people that will respond to your comments , posts , and shares . The confidence in which you communicate will attract new followers and give your existing followers a reason to continue to pay attention to you .
True belief in the content that you post , like , comment , and share will transform your presence on the platforms that you target . This understanding has been vital to why millennials attract huge followings .
2 . Uniqueness
Highlight and embrace your uniqueness . Ignite your curiosity by asking for feedback on ideas and subjects in which you ’ re passionate . If you present an idea , share a post or comment on content that is unique , thought provoking , or just funny , you will increase your viewers and followers . Don ’ t get me wrong ; it can be difficult finding a unique set of ideas that will resonate and take flight as you grow your network , but that should be the challenge . Because sharing your uniqueness is worth the effort and reward .
My uniqueness sadly comes from the fact that I am among a small group of African Americans pursuing and actively working as screenwriters . This presents a unique opportunity to share our view of the world while deepening the added difficulties of getting our stories told . Inviting a diversity of viewers and influencers into my network has been invaluable to shaping my cultural perspective and worldview .
3 . Repetition
The third important aspect is repetition . If you implement the C . U . R . E formula , you must be tenacious and repetitive in your execution , by posting and sharing content at least three times per week . Once the formula morphs into a routine , it will spark interest and help you increase your network and viewership .
My routine for success began by going onto LinkedIn and searching and connecting with individuals within the film industry and industries connected to it . I actively set a goal to connect with 50-100 industry professionals per day , and I would endorse anyone of my connections if they asked me . I ended up usually endorsing 20-40 people a week . I also share at least 5-7 posts which vary from job opportunities from talent recruiters to articles written by my connections that I believe were fun , interesting , unique , and most importantly , positive .
4 . Endeavor
The fourth and final aspect of creating a successful networking campaign is to enjoy the endeavor . Striving hard for something that you deeply care about is one the greatest things anyone could ever do . There are many people around the world that never achieve their goals and many more not put into a position to succeed because society / life dictates another plan for them . But if you are courageous enough not to care about what the world puts in front of you , and you strive hard to fulfill your dreams and goals , then the skies are the limit . So enjoy and appreciate the endeavor !
It has been a truly amazing experience growing my social media network . I believe all human beings are connected , and we live in a digital era that allows anyone to connect to anyone , anywhere . All we have to do is keep furiously moving forward . Using formulas like C . U . R . E can help you move from the point of complacency and apathy to creating a vibrant and active social networking sphere of influence and influencers .
Thank you for reading , I hope my tips and experiences encourage you to continue to keep moving forward with what you love and help you network to connect with others that love to do the same .
