Don't use a one-size-fits-all approach when sharing news on social media.

Below are excellent tips that we also use for our clients.

The different features and formats of each social network create unique expectations and forms for content.

Facebook

Facebook is a storytelling medium. To drive the most engagement, connect with readers. This could be by making them laugh, teaching them something new or giving them a sense of brand ownership.

Wanting to add every new practice into the PR "arsenal" without determining what the destination or return on investment might be is foolhardy and will prove expensive.
