A recent study by Digital Brand Expressions (DBE) found that 78% of corporate users have a presence on Social Media. Only 41% have a plan or a strategy. SO the message is:
PLAN,
PLAN,
PLAN
if you expect good results with your social media tools. You can get a copy of the planning sheet we use at Council Blogs by sending an email request to Chief Blogger.

Zack Grossbart has a neat video on using the WordPress Editorial Calendar that can get you up and planning really fast. The bloggers at our blogging club find that having a plan makes it ten times easier when it comes to writing your posts. I cannot say it better than Mark Twain, “Plan for the future because that’s where you are going to spend the rest of your life.”
