Very good post. I had already enjoyed the video and this is the perfect written frame for it. One of the first things I show my clients is how they can share to their profile or business page. It is indeed a great way for a business to make connections and for small organisations to collaborate. Thanks Keri, really enjoyed.

I could not view the video for some reason.. (need to check my settings)… This is very good!! I have been doing a lot of Sharing on my personal profile.. I try to do the same on my business page. But I do make a conscious effort to keep the two very separate. I make sure to post thing that I believe are helpful and useful…. for the most part I need to do a better job of being diverse about what I am posting on my business page…

Mischa, There may be a cookie you need to enable, or maybe a refresh of your cache will work. Sharing is caring. It is also a way to keep energy behind a cause with very little effort and no cost. Facebook also reacts positively to the share function. It sounds like you are doing well. Being aware and listening to your audience is so very important! As a business owner with a page, about once per week I’ll find something that fits the current tone of my personal following and I’ll share from my biz page to my profile. I’ve found that works for me. It may not work for everyone. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, ~Keri
