In today's digital world, social media has become an integral part of our lives. We use it to stay connected with friends and family, share our thoughts and experiences, and even conduct business. But with so many people using social media, it's more important than ever to be mindful of our behavior and follow some basic rules of etiquette. As a business, the way we use social media isn't the same as the average consumers so we aim to be extra mindful about how we present ourselves.
Here are some best practices for interaction and engagement on social media:
