Pages

Sharing is caring...

I am sometimes surprised at the amount some pages share with their fans...I love connecting with those of you that follow my page, but I'm sure you don't want to know about some of the crazy goings-on in my household or personal dramas!

I once saw a post on a business page (ages ago) about the business owner not coping very well with a tummy bug...and it was very detailed. Ummmm...those visuals are not fun for anyone! Fair enough if that's on my friend's wall - I can sympathise - but not on a business page!

But that's just me. What do I know? Some pages share everything (and I mean everything!) with their followers. How much is too much?

I can only go by what I like to see...and that is:

- business related posts (new products, sales, upcoming markets, etc)
- diy / craft related posts
- Pinterest (am addicted)
- things that will make me giggle
- personal posts (within reason) that help me feel connected to the page

I love pages that connect with the followers and make you feel like you're part of a little community. That feeling meant so much to me when I first stayed home on maternity leave with Emily Mae. Facebook was one of my lifelines...so many kind people who have become real friends.

I would love to keep that feeling going on my page...I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I'm going to try. Any suggestions you have would be very helpful, I'd love to have your input.
