Social Media Tips from @TheFenway

1. Engage, engage engage! Content is a two-way street. It isn’t enough to simply post and follow. Engaging your followers is the best way to grow influence and give authority to your voice.

2. Post content that is relevant to your account. We try to curate information that is either directly related to The Fenway or Boston, or seems like something our audience would care about. Also, if you’re chiming in on content that is already being widely shared, try to give a unique perspective.

3. Keep a consistent tone. As followers begin engaging with you, it is important to remember that they are now familiar with the identity represented by your account. Always have a true north when it comes to personality and voice.
