On this week’s GoalChat, I discussed Social Media with grandfluencer Kristen Coffield, Active Grandparenting; octogenarian TikTok star Annie Korzen, author of The Book of Annie; and the anti-caterer/author Chef Rossi, The Raging Skillet. Kristen, Annie, and Rossi have all used the power of social media to share their voice and uplift/help others.
They talk about authenticity, the value of social media, and more.
Benefits
- Annie: TikTok allows me to be myself and reach people who are the opposite of me; it’s also great for asking questions and finding resources
- Rossi: It’s a place to spread the word about news and events
- Kristen: Sharing information; remember, Instagram is good for marketing, not sales
How to Be More Social with Your Content
- Annie: Share simple pleasures, like enjoying food
- Kristen: Confidently step into your messaging, relatability
- Rossi: Set boundaries for self-care: stop using social media a few hours before bedtime, so you sleep better and are at your best
