We're excited to share another week of news & ideas with our MAiZE family. There never seems to be a shortage of ideas and the truth is that some of the best originate with all of you! So, if you ever have an idea you'd like us to pass along to the group, please just send it our way. Also, please remember that we'll be archiving these ideas on the siteowner web site, so that you can go back and view them whenever you like.

New Social Media Idea of the Week
|
|
|
Did you know that not all your Facebook fans see your posts? In fact, without some strategic effort or $$, very few likely are. With more and more changes to social media (Facebook in particular), it's becoming more and more important to implement some strategies to increase your presence....beginning now.
With this in mind, we'll be posting a "Social Media Idea of the Week" for the next several weeks on our private Facebook forum. Our hope is that we can all learn together how to maximize the potential of social media!
Below are just a few links, sent to us by Laurie Graff (thanks to Laurie for sharing!), to start things off:
