Things to Avoid
#Too #many #hashtags
Too many tweets, posts and session reminders - engage
vs. talking ‘at’
Don’t post from multiple accounts when using hashtags
Don’t abandon – so many social media efforts begin &
then get abandoned
It’s great to show your personality in your social media
activity, but don’t cross the line. No one wants to know
what you ate for breakfast.

Experts’ Twitter Tips
I tweet from HootSuite because it shows multiple ‘streams’. Set it up to
show home, mentions and sent tweets and, at conferences add a stream
for the hashtag. Having all the streams in a single browser tab facilitates
monitoring an active Twitter discussion.
Ron Friedmann, Fireman & Company, @RonFriedmann
Attribute the comment you are tweeting to the specific speaker. Also
make tweets count and use discretion. Not all your followers are at ILTA.

Experts’ Twitter Tips
Be Coordinated: set goals such as increasing awareness, sharing tips.
Be Consistent: find balance between too much tweeting and ‘just right’.
Be Careful: use common sense.
Rob Robinson, ComplexDiscovery, @ComplexD
Use social media to foster the ‘thank you economy’ … a way of having
meaningful, fun, informational and engaging relationships with your
clients and potential clients.
Roe Frazer, cicayda, @cicayda
@InsideLegal #ILTA13
Tweeting works well for note taking/onsite session discussion and post
event content sharing. Use hashtags to ID & organize content while
building awareness and offering value for attendees.
Jen Bullett, One North Interactive, @OneNorth
A picture is worth a 1,000 words. Timely stats & industry metrics are
worth nearly as much. Make it a point to tweet out informative visuals
such as links to infographics, charts/stats, etc.
