Social Media Tip

[Chicken Man]

I've got to do some soul-searching to figure out why I'm so het up about this, but if you're going to have a separate social media account for your solo music work, named "Herb Menderchunk--Music", it's obnoxious to invite all the friends of your personal account to "like" it if you're still going to post all your music stuff on your personal page. I've Liked several Music pages, so now I've got a bunch of doubles in my feed.

Guilty.

There are some who are on both pages, but many differences as well, which is why I double post sometimes.

As long as you know you're specifically punishing the people who go out of their way to sign on to the Gary content train.

I guess I never considered it. I get a number of duplicate posts from people and organizations and scroll past the duplicates. I appreciate knowing that it can be bothersome to others.

This has happened to me because I've stopped and started several ventures over the years and my Facebook especially is a mess.

I’m a bit late here, but I’ve found it helps to treat separate music pages as more like optional side doors rather than something friends have to walk through. Some people love supporting that stuff, others prefer sticking to personal connections. Do you think your reaction might come from feeling pressured to “perform” on social media, even outside your music?
