First thing actors need to know on social media?-- People are looking you up!

Social Media Profiles are a direct reflection of you and show you're a team player.

5 Things You Absolutely Need to Know:

1. People are looking you up and that first impression is everything
   • You are so much more than the projects you book
   • Mix of storytelling posts, community posts, self promotion posts
   • Free video, youtube.com/heididean
2. It isn't just a self promotion tool- it's a storytelling tool
3. You don't have to be good with technology to rock your social media
   • Who do you know in the business? Who do you want to know?
   • Use social media to talk with people, rather than a megaphone to broadcast at them
4. Social Media is all about RELATIONSHIPS
5. Video is your Best Friend

Perfectionism leads to procrastination, leads to paralysis
