The following posts comes to us from Joan Stewart, The Publicity Hound:
How many times do you read somebody’s profile at a social networking site, and then devour everything they’ve written because the profile sounds so interesting?
Almost never. But last week on Twitter, I stumbled across Judy Lederman’s profile:
It clearly passes the 10-second test. That’s the barometer that social media strategist Nancy Marmolejo uses to determine whether she stays on somebody’s Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn page, or bails out.
“Within 10 seconds of visiting your social networking profile, a prospective client, alliance partner, or media contact must be able to understand who you are and why they should follow you,” Nancy says. “Most people’s profiles are a hodge-podge of information. A good number are unsure how to balance personal and professional details, so they either leave them out entirely or throw in the kitchen sink. Both are bad strategies.”
