Social media question
« on: December 13, 2016, 09:50:24 pm »
Ok folks, just looking for a little input. Bubby messaged me the other day asking if I had a website or Facebook for the game calls I make, and well I don't. I've been meaning to for a long while now, it's just not real high on the priority list. So I'm wondering if it should be. How many of you guys on social media, and what's the most common? Facebook I'm guessing, but what about instagram, twitter, etc...

I would appreciate some thoughts. Thanks!

Same here BJ!   I would rather look at bows and arrows than read about everybody's drama.

I'm getting to be an old timer and I drew the line a while ago.
But my younger friends and family can't do without these
interweb connections. Most swear by the business results
they get. You should know what twitter did for one guy.? :laugh:

I have a WordPress blog that I made myself. It's easy. You can sell stuff there but you cant be like a Amazon affiliate. Then you can link it to face book. I don't use it much anymore. Just Google one legged cowboy. I dont b sell anything there, I was trying to post pics and a story of where I was out west boondocking for my father and mother. Now I have lost interest.

Bubby I probably would enjoy being on face book but truthfully I spend more time on this site than I should some days lol.

If this is a business for you then you'd clearly do well to create an account.  Don't know if you understand how FB works but when you "friend" someone you can simply "unfollow" them...meaning they will see what you post but you don't have to see what they post, unless it is folks you specifically want to.

Creating an account for business purposes could simply be managed a little differently.

Instagram and a blog (word press, blogger, etc) have been very helpful and enlightening for me. And they're where I go to learn stuff, too, by way of search hashtags. I've also made a lot of good friends on instagram.  Always found Facebook too cumbersome to use and search, personally.

Facebook has the potential to get you a lot of looks. You can make a page that you can sell from, or just a fan page where people can order from you. It is at least worth a shot.
