Christin Kardos is the Social Media & Community Manager at Convince & Convert, a digital marketing consulting group founded by best-selling author and popular keynote speaker, Jay Baer. She’s well known as a digital cheerleader and bacon analyst – hey, it’s in her Twitter bio. LOL!
I’ve known Christin for several years now. We first met on Twitter, and as you’ll hear in the interview, we got the chance to meet in person several months back at Social Media Marketing World in San Diego. There is nothing like meeting someone in person you first met online, and especially with someone you made an impressionable connection with. When Christin and I saw each other at the conference, it was as if we had known each other forever. That is the power of connecting on social media and it’s definitely the power of Twitter!
In this episode, Christin talks about embracing Twitter and that taking an interest, being curious and playing with the platform can do so much for you. We talk about a lot of things including the power of Twitter chats and advice for newbies to the platform. You’re going to feel like a fly on the wall to a great conversation. My Favorite Quotes During the Interview:
“Embrace Twitter itself and the power of Twitter. Understand what it can do for you.”
“Twitter is like a big sandbox or cocktail party. Be observant. Be a good listener. Be a good citizen of the community.” Your Call-To-Action Your call-to-action for this episode is to follow Christin’s Twitter Tip when she said be a good citizen by being a good listener, being polite and try to add valuable feedback to others when they’re talking to you.
