How do you like to conduct your business on social media? Are you an ‘I’ or a ‘We’. Are you ‘fun and out there’ or ‘serious and down to earth’?

It’s important that you understand and define your brand’s social media personality. Knowing exactly what personality to portray in your social media makes sure you connect on the right level with your clients.

Think about your brand – what does it represent? Is it fun, energetic and youthful? You may want to adopt a laid back writing style. However if you’re a corporate organisation, your posts should be more formal to enhance your credibility.

If your page is run by multiple admins, sign off an update with your name or initials to personalise the message: “Looking forward to showing you all our new collection! – DB”. This gives your brand personality and makes you ‘human’.

However, do keep in mind that there is always a time and place. While Facebook is social and fun, LinkedIn is professional and business only. Nobody wants to see cat videos clogging up their news feed when they are trying to network. Also, your Twitter updates need to be short, sharp and to the point, so deliver only the most essential information.

To make sure you are connecting with your audience, talk directly to your followers. Perhaps more importantly, listen to your followers. What are they interested in? What are they seeking? How could you assist them? You can still be creative just ensure that your writing style is relevant to your target audience.

Think about how you would like your company to be viewed and start implementing it into your marketing and communications right away. Don’t force it though. Make the right decision by going with whatever feels natural. You will be surprised at how easy it is!

What’s your process when writing content for your social media? I’d love to hear! Leave your suggestions in the comments below.

Nowadays, it’s not uncommon for businesses to purchase professional images from photography websites (also known as ‘Stock Image’ websites). You may have heard of a number these websites such as iStock and ShutterStock.

Purchasing stock images or hiring a professional photographer for your next project may not always be the most cost effective option for small businesses. However, you can still achieve the same result and make your business stand out from the crowd without breaking the bank.  Thankfully, as is the case with most things on the internet, there are a number of free alternatives!

I’m talking about websites that now offer free photos for personal and commercial use. Yep, no strings attached, high quality FREE stock image websites are popping all over the place.

It’s exciting to see such amazing images in both subject and quality freely available!

Here is a list of my top 5 free stock photography websites (in no particular order):

1. SPLITSHIRE

SplitShire is  a collection of shots from Italy based photographer and graphic designer, Daniel Nanescu.

The collection has a tonne of categories ranging from food, fashion, landscape and technology – to name a few. Split Shire is updated on a regular basis as well, so it pays to check back each week to see what’s new.

2. GRATISOGRAPHY

Gratisography offers a collection of quirky, abstract and still life photos that would make the perfect feature image for your upcoming article or brochure design.

With its continuous scrolling feature, you’ll find it hard to break away from it’s amazing gallery.

3. UNSPLASH

Running since May 2013, Unsplash collates free stock images from around the web and brings them all together in the one place.

Users can freely submit their photos to the database with the team at Unsplash making 10 new photos available every 10 days. So make sure to check back regularly.

4. PICJUMBO

Open since November 2013, PicJumbo has a an enormous collection of images to choose from.

With the ability to break your search down via category, it would be hard not to find something you’re looking for here. My only complaint is that the search bar hiding on the right hand side of the page is a bit hard to see, so keep an eye out for it.

5. PUBLIC DOMAIN ARCHIVE

Public Domain Archive is another site collating images from around the web. The ever growing collection offers modern and vintage images as well as serving up hi-res images of some of the world’s most famous photos that are now available in the public domain.

The site is set out like a blog, with each new image in its own post. Some posts can contain around 50+ images, so you may have to do a little bit of searching, but the rewards are very satisfying.
