Do You Follow?: A Podcast on Social Media Marketing Love Stories TV

This episode is a love letter to New York (see Jerry Seinfeld's New York Times article if you don't know what we're talking about), but we're also talking about the creative ways people are choosing to live their lives in COVID times.
Plus, we've got a new roulette-style game on the social networking platform that is definitely not as cool as TikTok but way more practical than all of them: LinkedIn!

COVID-19 has fundamentally changed traditional networking. How do you keep up with and create new connections for potential business partnerships when you can't go to events, panel discussions, coffee meetings, etc. in person? We talk about new companies popping up that might make this easier, plus we share our thoughts on "the MasterClass economy," in which professionals are monetizing their unique skill sets to teach other people online as an additional revenue stream.

Instagram Reels is here and while it's certainly not groundbreaking (we see you, TikTok), get familiar—because you should definitely start using it for your business. Don't freak—we know it's yet another channel to content for, but we're sharing examples and strategies that you can try today. P.S. Read this efficient deep dive on Reels and what we know so far from our friends at Dash Hudson.
Plus, we help edtech non-profit @dreamwakers_ with ideas for how to plan a fundraiser event that will be online for the first time—that doesn't skimp on entertainment or revenue generated.

"Community" has been the buzz word of choice in the digital marketing world for the last few years. On this episode we're answering a question from someone working at a pet insurance company who wants to know where to build their online community. We discuss the why behind starting a digital community (do you even need one in the first place, really?), and we get into the pros and cons of popular online community platforms like Slack, Facebook groups and more.
Plus, we talk about the black and white selfie "challenge" that went awry... and @jdalfeen has some *personal news*!

We're all trying to figure out life in quarantine and for better or worse, we're technology-dependent more than ever right now. Rachel and Juliette discuss what they've been most and least excited about while scrolling, liking and commenting through the Internet (spoiler alert: lots of TikTok time), plus they discuss the quarantine age old question: Zoom vs. Google Hangouts (or other video meeting platforms), and why?
