Shelly's Top Five Digital Work/Life Tips
1 –When you speak, don’t tell them what you don’t know.
If your email address something like: cutepuppy63@aol.com? You’re telling everyone you’re in your digital diapers.
2 –
The speed of information = economic success. Faster information makes you a stronger competitor. There’s no excuse for not being a search and alert monster.
3 –
Nothing can be unsaid. Learn your digital etiquette. A good rule of thumb, don’t to anything online you would not do offline.
4 –
Social network your way to success. Be where the business is. There are over 350 million people on MySpace, Facebook and LinkedIn you should be too!
5 –
Make your online presence match your offline presence. You look the part offline, you should look the part online.
