This is a bit of a cheeky post as I’m up to my eyeballs in visiting relatives.  His, not mine.

Okay, so there are more than 3 people you could go to/follow/like across the social networks, but these are my Top 3 Social Media Gurus and if I followed their advise could probably keep Lawrence in the style to which he would like to become accustomed.  As it is, I’m a bit lazy at this sort of thing, but that shouldn’t stop you hanging off their every word.

1. Nicky Pilkington – This amazing woman has a new baby and still manages to tell it like it is.  Is one born of the other, I wonder?  I have come to know Nikki as she is the partner of Shaun Gisbourne and he and I were at school together.  Working out of Northern France, Nikki really does have the finger on the pulse of social networking.  Her blog is full of interesting, funny and above all useful articles.  Not only does she give good advice, but you can hire her to do the hard work for you!
2. Michael Stelzner at Social Media Examiner – I’m sure I came across Michael because of Nikki.  Anyway, there was a link in someone’s blog or on a Facebook page that I was intrigued by.    Michael and his team consistently produce insightful and useful information that you can use in your website and on your social media pages.    I especially like the tips for driving traffic to your website and how to use sites such as Facebook and Twitter to your advantage, without spending €€€ and lots of time in the process.  They have a newsletter that I subscribe to and wish I had time each month to implement their tips and tricks.  Maybe I need a VA…
3.

I would encourage you to check out at least one of these amazing people and tap into their knowledge base now!
