50 social media advertising tips via sharethis.com:

1. Think long-term strategy, not short-term gain. Of course, you have long- and short-term social media marketing goals but – and here’s the catch – some marketers tend to focus on the short-term because their employers (or freelance clients) want to see immediate results. We get it, but still, we’re going to push back and say that a well-planned social media campaign has staggered results: some will present themselves quickly but others won’t become evident until months (and, sometimes, years if we’re talking the big picture) down the road.

2. Be picky. Think sustainable social channels, not EVERY social platform. The one thing we can say, for sure, about social media is that it’s ever-changing as soon as you’ve learned everything, there’s something new to learn. With that in mind, as you develop your social strategy, focus on the platforms you can run like a BOSS. It’s better to dominate a few, than to be mediocre at them all.
