010: Why You Should Start Treating Your Social Media Followers Like Real People | Scott Eddy

Click here to listen to this podcast episode on iTunes now! In this podcast episode, we learn the import of what it is to see everyone on social media as humans, and not just another comment or direct message in our inbox. It was an absolute pleasure interviewing Mr. Scott Eddy. He really opened up my eyes and helped me realize the importance of seeing my Instagram followers, Facebook fans, etc., like actual people. He stresses the importance of humanizing your attack on social media and approaching it as an opportunity to engage and connect with real people who’ve shown an interest in you. Instead of focusing on the ways you can monetize and gain more followers for your own benefit. Honestly, Scott has been one of the most “real” and unapologetically honest guests I’ve interviewed to date and I couldn’t be more excited to take what I’ve learned from him today and apply it immediately myself.
