    Despite of the importance for openness on #Socialmedia, secrecy can also be a currency @TheBumBumTrain #SMWART #SMWLDN

    You don't have to be everywhere. What kind of content do you produce and who is your target audience? #smwrabbit #smwart

    If your creative content is actually video, think of seeding it onYouTube: it's a Google platform, it's crucial for reach #smwart #smwrabbit

    Tumblr can be entertaining but more selective- hard to gain followers. It's about quality of content #smwart

    Giving someone a sneak peak into your creative process can help drive more traffic giving the reader a sense of exclusivity #smwart
