Thanks for your generosity! Wish I could be there for the rest.
Hi Travis,
I was at your presentation on Sunday and it was just what I needed to hear. Social media can be really overwhelming, but when you remember that it’s just about joining a conversation, it feels so much more inviting.
I have one big question. You didn’t have enough time to finish your presentation during the time allotted, and at the end as you were flipping through your last slides, I saw that your “Tip #2” was IFTTT. IFTTT is something I’ve heard about but never used myself. I think I’m a little intimidated but I suspect that it could be something that makes my life a lot easier. (Sort of like TextExpander, an app that makes me 1,000 times more efficient at work!)
Could you say a little bit about how you use IFTTT and why you were including it as a tip in your presentation? Thanks!!!!
IFTTT is an app you can download on a smartphone that makes it easy to post something to all social media platforms at once. If you download the app it does a pretty good job of explaining how to set things up. Thank you for coming to the session!
