Quote the pros: Share and retweet to establish creditability



Today in the viral world of social media and the Internet, you can share anything on your Facebook and Twitter accounts. On almost every blog you read and every site you visit, there are options to ‘like’ it so that others can see what you’re interested in.

What’s more, you can also ‘share’ and ‘retweet’ content from other Facebook pages and Twitter accounts. This is a great way to establish credability for your business.

For example, if you want to post or tweet something about being an entrepreneur, it would be more beneficial to share or retweet content from a business mogul (i.e. JR Ridinger, President and CEO of SHOP.COM and Market America) than to come up with something on your own.

You can also use the social sharing options on most blogs, like my blog benjamin-pang.blogspot.com, to post or tweet a link to your Facebook and Twitter accounts. By doing this, you don’t have to create content on your own and you can be sure that the content you’re sharing/retweeting is reliable. 

Posting or tweeting something for your fans and followers helps promote your business on social media platforms. However, if you’re just starting out, you might not seem like a reliable source to potential business partners. One great way to establish creditability is to quote the pros!

By sharing and retweeting content from professionals, it shows your fans and followers that you are experienced in your field. Establish credibility by learning from the pros and watch your business grow!
