Ever since we got back from the  Disney Social Media Moms Celebration it seems as if we have been going through withdrawal symptoms.

 

Yes, I have so much information wealth to share but, like I joked on a private Facebook group, I  might as well start a separate blog to share all that I learnt!

So to make things simple, I thought I’d break down the cream of the wealth into 2-3 posts and since this will be focused on enhancing your social media presence, I’ve titled this simply…

I will share points from each session that hit home with me and sincerely hope the “gems” will help sharpen your online presence in a great way!

 

Wise words from Rene Syler…

  1. Find your passion. Do that thing you would do even if you aren’t being paid to do it!
  2. Hone that passion by figuring out what you are good at and learning to be true to your brand.
  3. Don’t compare! Comparing leads to despair!! Run your own race and live your own life!
  4. Protect your brand.
  5. Nobody will believe in you as much as you believe in yourself.
  6. Play nice. (!!)
  7. Big reward necessitates big risk!
  8. Your brand is a reflection of you. Make your brand look good. Sloppy does not sell!
  9. Surround yourself with the right people.

Shannon Miller, Disney Social Media Moms Celebration 2013

.

  1. Sometimes what seems to be a brick wall actually serves as a springboard to our success.
  2. Be prepared to walk into those unexpected opportunities. You never know when they will spring up.
  3. Find people who are passionate about the same things you are passionate about.
  4. Have a balance on your social media channels. Keep evaluating to see if you are maintaining that balance.
  5. Remember what you put out there, is put out there…and you can’t take it back!
  6. Discover the positive in times of adversity. Don’t give up. Make lemonade out of lemons!
  7. Everything you do matters.

  1. I like this one {Nobody will believe in you as much as you believe in yourself} and of course the Play Nice part.

  2. Good tips! Blogging is a job for me to make extra money for my family, but it didn’t start that way. I love writing and sharing things, so I think I really need to focus on remembering that when the money isn’t coming in.

  3. It was an amazing conference, wasn’t it?! Love your roundup, I feel inspired all over again. One of my favorite quotes ever is the Shannon Miller springboard quote. What a great outlook!

  4. I love Disney!! Totally wish I was a mom blogger so I could hear the awesomeness! Thanks for sharing!

  5. Great advice!!! Looks like a conference that was worthwhile and you learned a lot!

  6. I must have looked these over four times to pick a single one to tell you, but I can’t. Those are all such good points!

  7. Even though I am in Orlando, I’ve never had the opportunity to attend this fascinating conference, but everything I hear about it is totally magical!
