Hello all. My branding tip for today is simple- develop your off air brand. The most successful on air personalities like #SteveHarvey, #IK, #Bonang and yours truly (hee hee) have been able to develop their brands on and off air

#Tip #Hustle @Regrann from @tosynbucknor - #365Tosyn "Build your tribe"

#TheOAP101 When interviewing a guest, remember to always let them complete their sentences without interrupting, and don't finish sentences for them. If you have to interrupt (eg, when a guest goes off topic or too long), do it politely.

Who follows you? Spend some time finding out who follows you especially if you use social media for business or to promote your personal brand. You can then tailor your posts to both help express yourself and connect with your audience.

Build your tribe. You need to work on building a tribe of people who support you and you can count on.

Juices, Tea and Coffee all taste great but the best thing for your voice is good ol' water!

#SocialMedia Monitor!!! Most social media platforms let you track things like followers and engagement. Take advantage of this. Learn about who follows you (age range, gender, etc) because it tells you why. See which content get you better reach. Know your audience!!!

Turn your "I'll be happy if..." to "i am happy".

#SocialMediaTip x #TheOAP101Tip You have heard of "mind your language". When it comes to #SocialMedia there is also "Mind Your Handle". Use your (own name, a stage name or your brand's name. Where your name has been taken, add a prefix or suffix. Eg, "thetosyn", "tosynmusic", officialtosyn" If your name has been taken and you want to be found easily, use your full name in your profile. Eg, handle "area boss" but profile name "tosyn bucknor". Also, include your full name in your bio,eg, "The official page for ...". What's your name and what's your handle?

#Tip #Branding -Start early. -Don't wait till you are popular to define your brand. -Define it now. . "If you do not tell people who you are, they will tell you who they want you to be" Tosyn Bucknor
