Kate Toon presents a lively discussion of the pros and cons of social media and how you can tackle it head on. She covered:

  • Building a relevant, memorable, trustable brand
  • Finding your niche (like Britney Spears did)
  • Dealing with the negativity (aka the Alan Factor)
  • How to set goals and understand the metrics 
  • Thinking about SEO and social media
  • Content pillars and scheduling

Her key takeaway? Don't overthink it.
