Have you ever experienced phantom phone syndrome?

We live in interesting times…

I was workflowing yesterday and listening to a youtube presentation by Bonin Bough, a well known digital marketer.

Check it out…he sez:

*Have you ever experienced phantom phone syndrome? When you think your phone is vibrating. But it wasn’t. Messaging, it appears, is as addictive as cocaine

*What is the last thing you looked at before going to bed? Your partner or your cell phone? Everyone sez phone.

*Average age for a kid to get a cell phone? 12

*Radical transparency. Everyone can see you, what you are, what you’re up to, all the time.

*When kids go to college, the never ending, constant conversation does not stop. You know what they are doing now.

*80% of newborns have their pics up on social media within the hour

*People are lying to their friends so they can go to the bathroom ans check out Instagram

Love it. Or hate it. We can use these trends to our advantage.

I use Hootsuite for my photography business.

The key is to use social media effectively.

Yours in photography and success,
